Top Fair Grounds Race Course Hotel Reviews

New Orleans Marriott

10/10 Excellent

"I was there for a conference. I truly appreciated that the meeting rooms were ensconced within the floors of the hotel itself and not a separate convention meeting space away from the hotel."

Bourbon Orleans Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This was a perfect location to immerse yourself in the French Quarter. We looked forward to the pool courtyard everyday. Lei at check-in desk was THE BEST! I travel a lot and rarely get friendly service like hers. A definite asset to the hotel and my stay!!"

Wyndham New Orleans - French Quarter

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and price."

Homewood Suites by Hilton New Orleans French Quarter

10/10 Excellent

"Just a nice experience overall. Breakfast was great!! Probably the best I have had at a hotel."

The Royal Sonesta New Orleans

10/10 Excellent

"My 7th time in NOLA and this was by far my favorite hotel. It gave resort vibes. The hotel has everything you need. Several restaurants and nightlife in the hotel. The best pool area, pool bar and staff, and poolside food were amazing. The DJ on Sunday was such a vibe. Caleb at the door, Mr. Malcolm helping with you our luggage, Alexis at the pool, all the front desk staff, and house keepers were so welcoming and kind every single day. We had balcony access and easier access to the pool. We celebrated 2 birthdays so we were given complimentary champagne and pralines. Such an expected and sweet touch. We definitely plan to return and stay here again!"

The Jung Hotel and Residences

10/10 Excellent

"Good place to stay"

Chateau Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was the friendliest staff I’ve ever encountered. They were the reason for my 5 stars. They called a cab for my return to the airport and made checkout and check in a breeze. The cleaning staff was also very nice, and made sure I had enough towels, etc. room was very clean and it centrally located in the French quarter . I only wish I had access to the pool when I was there. They did offer access to their neighboring hotel’s pool. Other downside was no fridge in room I would have loved to keep cold waters in there with the heat. Otherwise I still enjoyed my stay and was well worth the value."

The Westin New Orleans

8/10 Good

"Great view of the river and city. Attached to Canal Place Mall and close to French Quarter. Staff friendly and helpful. Only complaint was the toiletries were not filled up such as body wash and lotion. And the automatic closing of the room doors slammed very loudly. Walls are a bit thin as I could hear others guests talking. But bed and room comfortable."

Best Western Plus French Quarter Courtyard Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Clean rooms, beautiful property and really friendly and helpful staff! Exactly what we needed in a prime location the night before a cruise."
