Homewood Suites by Hilton New Orleans French Quarter

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location 2 blocks to the French Quarter and Canal St! We walked to everything. Our suite was nice, clean and quiet with comfy king bed and full kitchen (minimal silverware or utensils, so bring your own if you plan to cook). Excellent full hot breakfast buffet plus free Wed night social with wine, beer and appetizers. Very helpful staff and concierge. Valet parking was expensive but it was worth it to come and go easily. The area is a little dicey at night with many homeless and odd people hanging out on Rampart St, but plenty of traffic driving by and no one bothered us. Be very careful to keep valuables secured, not visible, and don’t wear hanging purses."

French Market Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful New Orleans vibe. Clean and well decorated. Staff overheard it was my birthday and sent comp champagne to the room! Can’t wait to return "
