Stayed 2 weeks - Xmas and New Years. Wonderful,quiet, location in Warehouse District which we might have not explored so thouroghly if this wasnt the only hotel I could find last minute! (Sugarbowl? What Sugarbowl...) Nice & helpful staff and check out Dino's Bar & Grill down the street. 20 minute safe walk to Jackson Square, French Quarter (day or nite) or Superdome (day only). Not your average Hampton as it truly is in a renovated warhouse. Give it a try if you want something not inside FQ crazy, but close enuf to hoof it to the FQ action

I was pleasantly surprised with this hotel - we spent New Year's Eve at the hotel (which was also the night before the Sugar Bowl in New Orleans). The hotel was at 100% capacity and they still functioned effectively and it was amazingly quiet due to the festivities.

The location is across the street from the convention center and a short walk (15 minutes) through the Warehouse district to the French Quarter. There were restaurants and bars within easy walks (a few blocks) - the negihborhood felt safe.

Our room was clean and well kept, but obviously someone had been smoking in it (even though it was a non-smoking room).

The front desk staff were very friendly and there was a very nice free continental breakfast.

The only negative was the parking fees - valet only at over $25 a night (I think it was $28?). Although, there was a flat lot (privately run) behind the hotel that we were able to self-park for $15 a night.

I would definitely stay here again - great hotel!!!

Stay far far away from this location. As noted in a prior review the hotel property has a history of over booking and then bumping you prior. I am a Diamond Hlton Honors Members and status did not matter at all. Made reservations 6-7+ months in advance for multiple rooms for a conference. Hotel contacted us 1 1/2 weeks prior to visit to say they are over booked and bumping us and did not care of Hilton status or that reservations were confirmed 6 months prior. Has caused huge travel arrangements problems with little or no hotels remaining at the last minute. Would stay as far away from the hotel as they way we have been treated.

What a great hotel Attended a seminar in June. Lobby, breakfast, room, facilities and service were perfect in every way. A great attention to detail by the staff in a very warm and inviting envirnoment. Right across the street from the Convention Center and a block from Expressway. Not far from the French Quarter.
A great spot for everyone. I got a great rate which was the icing on the cake but would have been happy paying much more.
