California Building
The room was wonderful and staff was absolutely wonderful. The building was right in the heart of the city and was accessible to so many places. Highly recommend. The only thing to be aware of is that there will be noise from both the streets of New Orleans and people walking around in the building ...

Memoir Warehouse District
I would have given 5 but the fire alarm started going off all hours of the night because of an elevator issue. Otherwise the hotel is very beautiful, very friendly staff. Short walk to everything. We enjoyed ourselves and would stay here again.
