Aloft New Orleans Downtown

New Orleans, Louisiana

Virgin rating

The hotel

Whether you're in the Big Easy for the music, the shops or just to get a taste of the Deep South, Aloft New Orleans Downtown is on hand to give you a great base. As you'd expect from a hotel that's got its finger firmly on the fast-paced pulse, you'll find fitness facilities, super speedy WiFi and even a grab 'n' go snack counter available around the clock, as well as a rooftop pool open morning, noon and night. The W XYZ bar offers the very best in classic and contemporary tunes as well as live acoustic sets, cocktails and draft beers, meaning you don't have to roam too far to have fun although, with Bourbon Street and the French Quarter nearby it would be rude not to spend at least one night on the tiles. Thanks to plush platform signature beds in your comfy guest room you'll have every opportunity to kick back and relax after a good day's sightseeing or naughty night out, and if you're looking for that extra touch of magic to compliment your stay in the South then Aloft certainly fits the bill.

Great hotel for a great price! Room was quiet, clean and spacious. Front desk lady was helpful and nice. Only downer was valet only parking and after 24 hrs in transit and 4 plane rides later we just paid it instead of driving around to find a parking building. It was only $48 after tax a day so not too bad. Ac was cold, water hot and pressure good in the shower and tv work worked. Wi-Fi nice and fast aswell. Super convenient location for the French quarter without the noise! We were on the 16th floor. Beds and pillows were pretty good too. Only thing is the pool was out of order due to the pump having electoral issue but not the end of the world. Read less

Perfect location, comfortable spacious room and a very comfortable bed. All staff that I encountered were friendly & helpful. Didn’t get the opportunity to use the outside heated pool 6am-11pm or the 24hr gym. Unfortunately didn’t try any food in the hotel as too busy exploring New Orleans. But as a base camp, I would definitely recommend… Read more

Nice location and friendly staff don't make up for the overall poor quality and terrible maintenance of this hotel.

Nice location and friendly staff don't make up for the overall poor quality and terrible maintenance of this hotel. Rooms were clearly designed by someone who had no intention of ever staying here and so often made the stay frustrating at best. Outlets are inconveniently located and the bathroom is a mess. Most damning is the fact that the "free WiFi" should really come with a disclaimer about how WiFi is hardly ever available. I have been here for hours without WiFi and other reviews from other time periods give the same feedback. Not worth staying here when you could pay less to stay somewhere with better rooms and a more reliable internet connection. Stay somewhere else, especially if you are in town for business. Read less

When we checked in the floor of our room was not clean and had visible marks. We only needed house keeping one day of the 6 nights we stayed. The house keeping service did not bring a new roll of toilet paper (despite no longer having a spare) or face washers/towels. The mark in the floor was still there after the house keeping came.

What an amazing hotel! The room was immaculate and very comfortable. The staff was amazing! China at the front desk was very helpful. We received incredible customer service from Alexis at the bar! She was very attentive and kind! We'll be back.
