Recent Reviews in Gentilly

Hotel Monteleone, New Orleans

10/10 Excellent

"If you want to get a "feel" for what it was like to stay in 'Ol Nawlinz", stay here. The hotel is classy, the staff uber-attentive and it has all the facilities of a great hotel including a very convenient location and on-site parking. The furnishings in the rooms may be a bit worn, but the bed was very good and the bathroom sparkling clean. I can't say enough good about the staff. From Dwight at the front door, to the masseuse Bridget in their SPA Aria, to the bar staff and the servers in their restaurant Criollo, the front desk, the housekeeping staff, they are all the best."

The Westin New Orleans

10/10 Excellent

"This might be one of the best places to stay in all of New Orleans. I am not sure if this is considered a "Hidden Gem" or not since the hotel is huge. But, I have been to New Orleans 5-6 times staying at various properties and this was BY FAR the best! The views from the lobby and bar area are incredible. The drinks are great, the food is great. The rooms are very nice and clean. The staff was wonderful. I can't say enough about this location. I will book with the Westin every time I come back to New Orleans from now on! 10/10"

InterContinental New Orleans by IHG

8/10 Good

"Our experience with the front desk staff was disappointing. The customer service was unwelcoming, and the staff came across as borderline rude, lacking both courtesy and initiative. We arrived before the official check-in time and completely understood that our room might not be ready. Our reservation originally included two rooms, but because our party size had changed, we wanted to see either our room or a comparable one before deciding whether we still needed both rooms. This seemed like a reasonable request, but we were not accommodated. Throughout the interaction, the staff appeared visibly annoyed, and several of our questions were met with short, dismissive responses that suggested they weren't fully listening or understanding what we were asking. When it was finally time to check in, we stood at the front desk waiting to be acknowledged while staff continued chatting among themselves instead of greeting or assisting us. Overall, the level of customer service fell well below expectations and left a poor first impression of the hotel."
