Overall Score4.0/ 5
The Staybridge Suites is located in New Orleans bustling downtown area. Just a few blocks from the casino, the French Quarter, and the trendy Arts/Warehouse District, the Staybridge Suites offers all the amenities of your own home. Each spacious studio, 1- or 2-bedroom unit has a kitchenette with full size refrigerator, 2 burner cook-top, and all the utensils you need to prepare a basic meal, but if you are there Monday through Thursday take advantage of the 'evening respite' featuring wine and a light bite. The rooms are clean and bright, with a seating area. On-site laundry, swimming pool and fitness center round out the list of amenities. The Staybridge Suite is the perfect location for a family looking for apartment style facilities without the commitment or hassle of leasing..

Based on 14 guest reviews Property Description
A new boutique property in New Orleans, Kimpton Hotel Fontenot offers high-touch service in the heart of the city. The lobby welcomes guests, while the spacious guest rooms - up to 600 square feet - are decorated in neutral tones with soft pops of color.Kimpton Hotel Fontenot is taking a page from that songbook by riffing on the standard Crescent City hotel, creating something contemporary and new. But it still embodies the NOLA spirit and honors the area's over-the-top style with a few surprises, including the magnificent Peacock Room, an ornate gathering spot filled with a menagerie of prints and patterns. Expect five-star service that's anything but stuffy, chic design mixed with playful touches, food and drink that satisfies the soul, and an atmosphere that has the chops to impress locals and visitors alike.Hotel Fontenot is right at the intersection of everything that makes New Orleans the legendary city that it is: unique architecture, unforgettable food, and nonstop music. Located in downtown's central business district, the hotel is adjacent to the French Quarter and its many charms, plus walking distance to the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center, the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, and the Smoothie King Center. Whether visiting for business or pleasure — or deftly combining the two — the hotel puts guests in the perfect position to explore the best of New Orleans. Green Sustainability
