Bottom Line
The 100-room Hampton Inn-St. Charles Avenue is a mis-range option in the Uptown/Garden District, known for its well-preserved 19th-century mansions and lovely green spaces. The hotel is about five blocks from Magazine Street, which has plenty of shops, boutiques, restaurants, bars, and galleries, and sits right on the famous St. Charles streetcar line, ready to transport guests downtown to the French Quarter or farther uptown to the Audubon Park and Zoo. Rooms are understated -- there's a lot of beige, gray, and light wood -- but come with mini-fridges and microwaves, and suites are available with avenue views, separate living areas, and kitchenettes. A large hot breakfast is included in the room rate (a to-go breakfast is also available during the week). There's a courtyard pool, a small business center, and a meeting room, and guests get free access to a nearby gym.

Scene
Somewhat bland, but warm and cleanly designed
The Hampton Inn-St. Charles Avenue is a boxy, clay-colored building in the Garden District, known for its gardens and Italianate, Greek Revival, and Victorian-style mansions built after the Louisiana Purchase for New Orleans' wealthy new American residents. The Garden District maintains this elegant, quiet, green residential feel today.
The hotel's interior exudes warmth, using yellow- and green-hued walls and furniture to punch up the otherwise generic space. A small seating area across from reception, with striped cushioned chairs and coffee tables, opens up into a spacious breakfast area where guests can grab anything from omelets and waffles to cereal and fruit.
Location
In the heart of the Garden District, right on the St. Charles streetcar line
The hotel is located in the Garden District on St. Charles Avenue, right on the streetcar line. Magazine Street, with its numerous shops, boutiques, restaurants, cafes, bars, and art galleries, is five blocks away, and the French Quarter is a few streetcar stops downtown (the stop is Canal Street Carondelet), while Audubon Park and Zoo is a few stops uptown (the line runs as far uptown as Palmer Park in Carrollton).
Rooms
Simply designed, spacious rooms
Like the common areas, rooms at the Hampton Inn-St. Charles Avenue are understated and somewhat generic, with a lot of beige, gray, and light wood; they use yellow and green hues to add vibrancy. Standard Rooms, which come with two double beds or one king-size bed, are spacious and include workspaces, 32-inch flat-screen TVs, microwaves, mini-fridges, coffeemakers, and free Wi-Fi. Suites with separate living areas, sofa beds, avenue views, kitchenettes, and whirlpool tubs are also available. Bathrooms include shower/tub combos and a great deal of counter space, and are stocked with Neutrogena toiletries.
Features
Outdoor pool, free gym pass, and breakfast and tea time included
The hotel serves a substantial free breakfast that includes hot and cold items, with a to-go option available during the week. The hotel also has a narrow, rectangular courtyard pool, with lounge seating and a covered patio, along with a small business center and meeting room. The Hampton Inn does not have an on-site fitness center, but offers free passes to a gym that's a block away. Free tea and cheese are served in the afternoons.
