Hotels Near The Seven Sisters in New Orleans

We were on a trip with 4 other couples, all staying in various hotels around Canal/Bourbon street, and the property at Virgin Hotels in New Orleans, from the lobby/coffeshop, to the room, to the rooftop bar were far and away better than the other properties for around the same price. It was our Anniversary weekend, and there was a very nice gift from the hotel in our room upon arrival, and everything was perfect. For anyone looking to see the WWII museum on their stay, it was an easy 10 min. walk, and Bourbon Street was 15-20 minutes away (for those inclined). The pictures and reviews on this hotel are accurate and probably understated compared to the experience we just had there in May 2022!

I was in town for a conference. I like mid-range hotels like Holiday Inn Express because you tend to get more complementary stuff, like breakfast and WiFi, and this was no exception. There are many positives: from here you are within easy walking distance to Bourbon Street and the CBD (Central Business District for us non-locals). It's a bit of a stretch to walk to the convention center (where I needed to be on a daily basis) or Frenchmen's street (less crowded than Bourbon, with different if not better character and music). I think I met half the Lyft drivers in NOLA, though got plenty of steps in too. There are a couple of restaurants nearby; I frequented Walk-Ons, a franchise but one that has local fare too. I had a room RIGHT next to the elevator. My first reaction was YES! I never get a short walk to the elevator! My second reaction was - $#!^ - I'm not going to be sleeping much with partiers coming off that same elevator. My fears were unfounded. The bed was plenty comfortable, the room was quiet, and I slept well. I only interacted with staff on a few occasions, but these were all positive. If you get hungry or need a drink or sundries, they have a ”Market” with assorted goods for purchase. They also have a business center (with a printer) that I did not use. I did not have housekeeping my entire four-night stay. This seems to be industry standard. You can request housekeeping, but it was just me, and I can live in my modest mess for a few days. It is my custom to include a report for traveling athletes. Swimming is a problem at this location. They have an indoor pool that is slightly larger than a bathtub. There are four local regional pools (closest being Gat Town Natatorium and Treme Recreational Community Center), but I struck out completely - all 4 were closed on the day I had planned to swim, one I found out by a failed Lyft ride to a closed community center. My suggestion is to CALL before you go, and if they don't answer, that probably means they are not there (even if the website says they are open... grr). For running, there are some treadmills at the hotel's fitness center that I did not use. About a half-mile away from the hotel is the Lafitte Greenway (look for the St. Louis Cemetary at Basin Street for the trailhead). It is 2.6 miles of paved trail for bikers, walkers, and runners. It felt safe (enough). There are several cross-streets, the more dangerous with stop signs and less dangerous with yield signs. I rarely needed to stop for traffic, and most drivers with polite, some even stopping when they did not have to so I could continue my run. A message from Captain Obvious: New Orleans is hot and humid. Avoid planning a run that will outlast your hydration. Back to the hotel. A couple of areas for improvement. The front desk was usually but not always staffed. It was not a problem for me directly, but I saw someone trying to get checked in with nobody to help him. The front door gets locked at 10 PM - or 9 PM - or

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Very clean room and common areas. The only reason I gave a 4/5 on facilities is because I don't think we should have had to pay $25 to park in the hotel parking garage!

The reception staff and Bell Man were beyond lovely. My wine unfortunately smashed in my suitcase and they went beyond the call of duty to help make sure everything was dry and clean in time for my flight. They also gave some really useful tips for restaurants in the vicinity when I checked in! Creole House is very near and delicious. I liked the location of this hotel, you could walk to most of the main attractions bourbon street ect but also easy to get an uber too at night time or if it was too hot!

This hotel was fantastic. It’s located right next to a streetcar station. Our room had a mini-kitchen with cutlery and dishes, a washing machine and a dryer. The staff at the reception were friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay so much.

Check in at 4 pm, early check-in for 25 dollars, Ctrip's so-called garden view room has only a small window, the window is a wall, the room is very dark, change the room for 25 dollars, parking 38 dollars, plus breakfast, a total of 220 dollars a night . Bourbon Street has all gone back and forth 3 kilometers. Breakfast is typical of American style, egg sausages. No extra bed, sofa bed and extra bedding.

Terrific location! Great staff! Excellent facilities! Varied breakfast options l. We chose to stay here once again as it is centrally located and safe and clean. Erick was big help prior to checkin; and Latasha was a smiling front desk agent who was great help, too. Both of these staff members were extra friendly and went the extra mile to make our ‘anniversary get away’ even nicer. Thanks to both— we will be back!

Hello Hampton Inn customer service front desk, I just want to thank KARA so so much words cant explain how hard working this young lady was when me and my family took the drive all the way from Ohio and I didn't have a room and something got mess up when i was doing my reservations. But KARA was the truth and she made a way for me and my children and I thank her so much for just helping the whole family. The rest of the front desk stuff I'm not sure it was always to much attitude or they didn't feel like being bothered. But way to go KARA and was another young lady on I believe Saturday morning who was awesome as well.

100/10 my boyfriend and I always stayed at super 8 hotels and they never disappoint, there are the best hotels we can stay, they are cheap and also convenient, this is the best!

In terms of hardware, the facilities are good. I am a suite and the sofa, bed, and TV are relatively new. The hotel has free parking lot with lots of parking spaces. Breakfast is not bad, typical American breakfast. The waiter was kind and friendly. When I checked in, I saw that the hotel specially made a welcome slogan for me, indicating that the hotel treats its guests very carefully and has a great experience.
