Hilton New Orleans Riverside

8/10 Good

"Front desk personnel needs customer service training."

Sonesta ES Suites New Orleans Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"I was greeting by a very difficult manager I was told it’s extra for early check-in, which was never disclosed. When I did get checked in they stated all higher floor rooms were still dirty and I was forced to stay in a room on 3rd floor with windows facing a parking garage in which people could look directly into my unit. The property was nice and the valet gentlemen was a great help. Location was good, But again manager wasn’t accommodating and had a very bad attitude."

The Jung Hotel and Residences

10/10 Excellent

"My husband and I went to New Orleans for the first time and we stayed at the Jung Hotel. The hotel is in walking distance of all Bourbon Street, The French Quarter and the French Market. The staff was really friendly and helpful. The hotel was clean and the room is spacious. It is located on Canal Street, not too far from all the excitement, but far enough that you didn't hear a lot of noise at night. The trolly runs right by the hotel, so if you have to catch it, you don't have to go far. I would recommend this hotel. And if we ever return to New Orleans, I would definitely stay here again."
