Top Hotels Near Amistad Research Center in New Orleans from AU$80

"First of all there is no gift shop in this hotel! The staff was rude and not considerate to an issue that took place at 12:20 am. Secondly the hotel needs a big upgrade like the bathroom tub was The only thing good was the pool was heated but everything else is a big disappointment.Sorry but not sorry I don’t recommend this hotel at all! "

"The Westin is the perfect place to stay! From the location in French Quarters to the comfort in the room, you will not be disappointed with what the Westin has to offer. I will say that the food options are limited and does not give a wide variety of choices, including the breakfast buffet (same food choices daily), but overall, if you want to be in the heart of French Quarters, this is an ideal location. Not to the mention, this hotel sits directly inside the mall- Canal Place- take the elevator down into Saks 5th Ave and other luxury shopping stores for your convenience. I will definitely consider staying at The Westin again while visiting New Orleans. "

"This is our hotel of choice due to the location of everything you need to see around the French Quarter by walking. No complaints "

"Beautiful courtyard pool that’s open till 10 pm. Love this hotel. Right near all the French quarter action, but peaceful inside. Lobby is pretty with lots of comfortable seating. Balcony room was spacious and the balcony was fun to sit out on to enjoy either the quiet mornings or night time action. Very good bar with excellent acts every night. Highly recommend! "

"Farther than we thought from FQ. About 25 stops/20 min. Older hotel with very nice lobby. Small elevator. Our room was on the front of hotel so the streetcar was loud all night but not overwhelming. Easy to get where we wanted to go from here. Safe parking lot. "

"Incredible staff"

"The desk manager was there when I arrived and was extremely friendly and accommodating. She should get a bonus for excellent customer service. Everything about the stay was as expected, and I will return."

"The negative: Lighting in the room was awful, especially if you don’t get one with a view. Trying to work the TV with the remote became the bane of my existence. Bathroom doors was second to that. This next one I understand isn’t really something the staff can control, but be careful walking from the Quarter to the hotel late at night, especially in front of the Brother’s store on Carondelet and Common St. Especially after midnight; take an Uber. We went into the store to purchase snacks and water for the room, and ran into an NOPD officer across the way who warned us to be careful at that store due to frequent criminal activity. There are some shady characters that seemed to hang out in front of that store everyday and night, but to be fair, we didn’t experience any issues, other than having to be more alert. The breakfast (that we had to pay for even though we supposedly paid for it upon booking), wasn’t anything to write home about. The positive: Staff were super friendly and helpful, service was great as it is in all other places in New Orleans we have visited. Walkability to the Quarter was super convenient. Same with the Street Car stations around the area. Bottom line: Affordable hotel located in the CBD, with great walkability to the Quarter, river, Warehouse District, Superdome. Great if you’re young and/or not traveling with children. However we will stay elsewhere in the future, just not our cup of tea"

"The location was great. I was able to watch the entrance lines from my room. I've already booked 2 more stays here this year."
