We spent 2 nights in this hotel for a quick July 4th weekend get-away. It is conveniently located in walking distance to the French Quarter. This is a beautiful hotel in a converted warehouse with lots of charm. We had a suite on the front section of the hotel. It was very clean and well maintained. The hotel staff was super nice and quick to respond to any requests. Everyone was very friendly.

They offer a free breakfast and it was quite popular when went @ 9:30 am on our first morning. We opted to walk down to the Quarter for breakfast. The next morning, I went earlier ( around 7:30 am) and there were just a few people at that hour. So, I recommend you go downstairs early if you plan to eat their breakfast.

On a side note: for the ladies, leave your high heels at home and bring your walking shoes when you visit the French Quarter area. You'll enjoy it much more. The sidewalks are very rough and bumpy and it's bigger than it looks on the little map they show you.

We only stayed one night at the Country Inn and Suites, but were impressed by the friendliness of the staff, the look of the hotel and rooms and the great price. The warm cookies at the front desk were a nice touch. The breakfast was good. The rooms were clean and attractive and it was only a short walk to the French Quarter and other attractions.The only complaint we had was the $24.00 valet parking and the dumpster pick up at 4:00 am in the alley outside our window. The noise from the truck emptying the dumpster wasn't terrible, but it did wake me, also perhaps because I was expecting it after reading another review of this hotel. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again if we're ever back in New Orleans.

We stayed at the Country Inn & Suites for three days in mid June. Someone recently wrote a review that this hotel was not a #1 in New Orleans. I highly disagree. True, the hotel does not have all the flash as some higher priced upper crust hotels, but it is the people that make the difference. The staff are so friendly and ready to assist in any way possible. The GM is always visible making sure the hotel looks nice and that all is in order. And anyway, these are old historic buildings that they converted so nicely. Since they are historic, they were limited in how much they could change and they did it so nicely. The breakfast was great and had so much variety. We loved the coffee variety. True, the breakfast room gets crowded, but it is free, lots of options, and really sometimes people are too greedy.

I would definately rank them a #1 and stay there everytime I go to new orleans!

Stayed one night on a business trip at the Country Inn & Suites near the French Quarter. A really neat hotel. Renovated from historic buildings, you can still see the old structures that are weaved into this new hotel. My room had 12'+ ceiling height and the walls were thick block walls. The lobby shows the old beams from the warehouses that used to occupy the site.

The staff was friendly and efficient. The bartender was a great host.

My party walked several blocks to Emeril's restaurant to eat dinner (excellent place to eat). The area was safe. We didn't venture into the heart of the French Quarter but it wasn't that far to walk.

I would definitely stay at this hotel again in I return to New Orleans.
