Top Mardi Gras Hotel Reviews

Sheraton New Orleans Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very helpful staff. Perfect location."

The Royal Sonesta New Orleans

10/10 Excellent

"We came to celebrate my 60th birthday in new orleans. When we entered the hotel we were pleasantly surprised. It is a wonderful gorgeous very aesthetically well kept. It was sparkling clean from front to back every area was immaculate clean. We enjoyed our stay very much and was proud to share memories and pictures on social media. People was so impressed with the property that they asked about what hotel this was. And we recommended highly to our friends and family. Will return to this hotel the next time we take a trip to New orleans. Very great memories made on this day at the hotel. Only drawback is they need to have access to microwaves for the clients that stay in the rooms or somewhere within the lobby if we can use the microwave that was only drawback. Other than that it was excellent experience and we enjoyed ourselves immensely. Thank you"
