My husband and I stayed for 2 nights at the W. We have never stayed at a W before so didnt know what to expect. We found that the staff from the valet attendants, bellboys, front desk, and restaurant staff were outstanding in every way! It actually was a surprise. We have never had that consistent professional service in our... More

We stayed at the W New Orleans for a relaxing weekend away from the kids in mid January. It is hip and modern, if a little tired in some rooms. The staff was uniformly fantastic from the front desk to housekeeping to bellmen. Management is to be commended on maintaining such a positive, courteous and service oriented staff. We were... More

I recently travelled to New Orleans on business and selected the W for it's name. Having stayed at the W in Montreal (which is fantastic) I thought I couldn't wrong. I wouldn't say I went wrong...but I definetly did do well. The person that checked me in was very helpful and so was the concierge but I found the other... More

I don't often find a favorite hotel in my travels based upon service, but this one wins the award for changing my mind. Frankly, it is right across the street from the casino, so it wins the geographic award too. But, what brings me back time and again is the comfortable, no make that very comfortable beds. Very nice lounge... More

Stayed at the W while on a business trip to New Orleans. It was two blocks from the Mississippi River (on the other side of Harrah's) and about five blocks to Bourbon Street. The rooms were modern and stylish and service impeccable. Everything about the W was a class act. More

I stayed at the W Hotel on Pydras Street for four nights in January 2012. The lobby, bar, gym and restaurant look nice, but the room was only so so.

The W New Orleans on Poydras is situated next door to Harrah's casino and midway between the Convention Center and the French Quarter. While it is a bit of a walk to each (5 blocks), it allows you to attend a conference, and spend time in the Quarter without taxis. The hotel staff is very welcoming, friendly and helpful -... More

Great location. Walking distance to restaurants, shopping & the casino. Very busy weekend so the Valet parking was "interesting". One of the attendents determined my valet fee by the size of my car (which was more than what I was told when I called the hotel) so I parked across the street. The hotel has a very contemporary feel and... More
