“Elegant Club Level”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 2, 2012

I stay here often when I am in NOLA for business. Excellent older vintage Ritz. The club level is one of the best - several separate rooms with nice seating areas and working fireplaces. The club level service is excellent - very attentive and helpful.

Room Tip: A club level upgrade is a great value. My room was quite comfortable with an excellent layout.

“Night jazz”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 30, 2012 via mobile

Came here in late evening to get a break from burbon street, good solid jazz band, friendly staff, reasonable drink prices and almost not a bad seat in the house, nice n intimate. We weren't staying here but didn't have any problem getting in

“Excellent service and lovely hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 28, 2012

I stayed at the hotel for 2 nights on business. I enjoyed the excellent service by all parties from checkin to turn down service and room service delivery. The hotel was beautifully decorated for the holidays and I enjoyed a view of the large Christmas tree in the courtyard. The location is perfect for those wanting to see the French Quarter! Thoroughly enjoyable stay!

“Will not stay anywhere else in New Orleans!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 28, 2012

Anyone who is not giving this hotel five stars is crazy! There is no better place to stay in New Orleans. I have stayed at the Monteleone and the Omni and, while both are delightful and charming, neither compares to The Ritz.

My boyfriend and I stayed here with his parents over Easter 2012. I would highly recommend staying here during this time. The hotel goes all out for Easter, complete with a petting zoo of bunnies and chicks on Sunday morning.

I ran the Crescent City 10K that weekend as well and the hotel had complimentary water bottles chilled and waiting for runners who were returning. They also had safety pins ready for our bib numbers, as the 10K organizers forgot to put safety pins in our running packets!

The rooms were exquisite. Clean and modern, while still maintaining a sense of New Orleans history. The rooms were also QUIET, which was a treat during a holiday weekend.

Jeremy Davenport is amazing to listen to, whether you are staying at The Ritz or not. Be sure to come by the bar at The Ritz and listen! He's sensational!

“Beautiful hotel and great location..”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 26, 2012

A company hotel that has great service, nice cozy rooms and great bar area.. The location is great and the rates are good..The bedrooms are not that big but they are comfortable. The hotel is located right on Canal and close to the nightlife within a block.
