Le Meridien New Orleans

The Le Meridien New Orleans is an upscale hotel located in New Orlean's Central Business District, within walking distance of both the French Quarter and the Museum District. The 410 stylish rooms and suites are outfitted with comfortable beds, large work desks, flat-screen TVs, and mini-fridges. In-room Wi-Fi incurs an extra fee, however, unless you’re a SPG Member. The outdoor rooftop pool is a guest favorite, with a large sundeck, padded loungers, and cabanas. The massive, trendy lobby is another popular spot, where coffee, wine, and small plates are served. Ample meeting facilities, a business center, and a well-equipped fitness center round out the amenities here. Travelers seeking something closer to the French Quarter might want to consider the comparable Hyatt FrenchQuarter New Orleans.

Hotel St. Marie

The 103-room Hotel St. Marie is a mid-range property in the heart of the French Quarter. Although it's not extravagant and it shows some wear and tear in places, the hotel is generally comfortable. Rooms are medium-size and some have small balconies. The on-site Vacherie serves reasonably priced New Orleans fare at breakfast and dinner, and has a cafe next door for more grab-and-go items. The outdoor pool is in a small but pleasant courtyard. If this hotel is booked, the nearby Bienville House is very comparable. 

Cornstalk Hotel
915 Royal St

Set on beautiful Royal Street in the French Quarter, the famous Cornstalk Hotel is an upper-middle-range boutique property one block from Bourbon Street. The hotel offers 14 elegant, individually decorated rooms in an ornate two-story Victorian house. The refined rooms are outfitted with soaring gold leaf ceilings, genteel chandeliers, and antique furnishings. Some rooms include fireplaces or four-poster beds. Air-conditioning and flat-screen TVs come standard, but there are no coffeemakers or mini-fridges. There’s a nice furnished terrace and a lovely courtyard encircled by the hotel’s namesake cornstalk fence. Wi-Fi is free throughout the property, and parking is available for a fee. There’s no pool, restaurant, or fitness center. Henry Howard hotel is a great alternative for travelers who want a historic boutique property, but would rather be in the Garden District.

The Eliza Jane

Set in nine former warehouse buildings on busy Magazine Street in the Central Business District, The Eliza Jane is an industrial-chic, journalism-themed, upper-middle-range hotel. It offers 196 stylish rooms with free Wi-Fi, flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, Keurig machines, and C.O. Bigelow toiletries. Suites feature comfortable and colorful living areas. The sprawling Press Room lobby bar serves coffee and cocktails, and offers plenty of indoor and outdoor lounge seating. Other amenities include the vintage-inspired Library lounge and a modern fitness center with Precor cardio machines and a Peloton bike. A French restaurant, Couvant, opened in the summer of 2018. There’s no pool or on-site self-parking. For a fun hotel closer to Bourbon Street, consider The Saint Hotel, Autograph Collection, but note that the saints and sinners theme is not necessarily child-friendly.

Le Pavillon Hotel

This upscale, mid-sized hotel in the Central Business District (CBD) drips with opulence, from the chandeliers to the marble floors in the entranceway to the large oil paintings. Decor throughout is of a classic style, but some rooms could use a refresh, and those on lower floors can be noisy. Standard Rooms can be quite small. There's a lovely rooftop pool with views of the city and nightly peanut butter and jelly sandwiches in the lobby.

Bienville House

Straddling two busy French Quarter streets, the historic Bienville House is as an urban oasis, with tropical rooftop terraces and a soothing courtyard. This boutique hotel has fewer than 100 rooms, a parlor-like lobby and friendly touches, such as free lemonade and cookies in the afternoon. High ceilings make the rooms feel spacious, but the decor is unremarkable, and Standard Rooms lack windows.

Sheraton New Orleans Hotel

The Sheraton is a large, mid-range business hotel located right on the border of the French Quarter and the Central Business District. It features 1,100 spacious rooms with modern technology -- such as flat-screen TVs -- great beds, and clean bathrooms with shower/tub combos. The large fitness center, extensive meeting space, and on-site dining options will appeal to business travelers, but the rooftop pool, two art galleries, and central location make it a solid pick for leisure travelers as well.

InterContinental New Orleans

The 479-room InterContinental New Orleans is an upscale high-rise hotel in the Central Business District, near the French Quarter’s nightlife, with 19 meeting spaces for conferences of up to 1,000 people and a 24-hour business center. On the 15th floor is a seasonal small pool (but no hot tub) and a modern 24-hour gym. Two stylish restaurants, with bars and poolside service, have Louisiana fare and there’s a market. Newly renovated rooms feature classic French-inspired furnishings, balconies overlooking the city in some, and some suites have kitchens. Travelers seeking an on-site hot tub and poolside bar may prefer the Roosevelt New Orleans, A Waldorf Astoria Hotel.

Hotel Mazarin

The Hotel Mazarin is an upper-middle-range boutique located in the heart of the French Quarter, just half a block from both Bourbon and Royal Streets. The 102 rooms are charming and elegant, featuring black-tiled bathrooms, iPod docks, and coffeemakers. Unfortunately, thin walls create noise issues for all rooms. Wonderful freebies include expansive breakfasts with hot and cold fare, welcome drinks at a nearby bar, and Wi-Fi. Although there are no spa, pool, or full restaurant, a popular wine bar with outdoor seating is on-site, as is a gorgeous greenery-filled courtyard that provides a respite from the crowds outside. This is a solid pick for those looking to explore the main tourist attractions on foot and who don't mind a little late-night noise. Travelers wanting a quieter boutique should consider the Inn on St. Peter

Blake Hotel New Orleans, BW Premier Collection

In the Central Business District on busy St. Charles Avenue, Blake Hotel New Orleans is a mid-range hotel with simple amenities. The 122 casual rooms offer air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, microwaves, and coffeemakers. Suites add living areas, and accessible rooms are available. Cafe on the Square offers breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and features a full bar. The colorful lobby offers lounge areas, a small business center, and a convenience store selling drinks and snacks, but there's little in the way of local charm. Other amenities include a fitness center and meeting space. Wi-Fi is free throughout the property. There’s no pool, spa, or on-site parking. The mid-range The Lafayette Hotel across the park also features a restaurant and has more history and local character, but there’s no gym.
