Historic hotel with contemporary flair near Riverwalk, downtown sites
Three historic coffee warehouses were combined and repurposed to create this unique Arts District hotel. Modern appointments join original hardwood floors, beamed ceilings and recycled wrought iron for a completely contemporary feel. The National Park Service has certified the restoration, and the result is a one-of-a-kind hotel in a great location. The hotel has easy access the convention center, French Quarter or cruise terminal. Riverwalk and its paddleboat rides are at the doorstep.

Nice for the price
I was in town for the weekend, but only spent late nights in the hotel. Really the only thing that I can comment about is the room and the pricing. I thought for what I needed and how close it was to the Dome, I was impressed. I was alone, but if I had been with someone, the bed was not very good. I did like the price of my stay, but did not sleep very well.

Amazing!
Huge room that felt more like a suite. Great location to uptown, magazine street, garden district, french quarter and Emerils is only three blocks away! Great value and recommended to anyone traveling to New Orleans.

Very convenient
This was our first trip to New Orleans so we weren't familiar with the area and we weren't sure if we had chosen wisely. However, upon arriving on the train, we discovered that the hotel was only about 8 blocks from the station and was only 3 blocks from Canal Street. It was very convenient, not too close, not too far. The only thing that would make it better would be a streetcar route. The king-size bed was comfortable but fell on us the first night (not what you're thinking)! I had to help the maintenance man repair it. However, when we called the desk they sent someone very quickly. We missed having a micro-fridge (we could have rented a fridge for $20 per night) because we like to eat in the room some but that was not too inconvenient. The staff was very helpful (however the doorman was a little annoying) and courteous. We didn't try the in-house steak restaurant/bar but several people did and seemed to be enjoying themselves. I'm not a fitness buff but I was disappointed that theirs was closed. Overall the experience was very positive and we would definitely stay there again.

Ambassador Rocks
We were in NOLA for super bowl sunday, so we didn't hang out in the hotel. It was, however, perfect for getting down to the French Quarter without having to pay for cabs. Rates were way cheaper than other surrounding hotels. beds were comfortable, hard wood floors, just a cool place all around.

Mother's restaurant on the corner of Tchop and Poydras. walk out the door and look to the left, it's right in front of you. Be sure you know what you want before you get in the door, they will get mad and yell at you. Fantastic New Orleans cuisine.

One night stay for sick child
We only spent one night at the hotel b/c my daughter had to recover from a minor surgery and we live two and a half hours away from the hospital. We stayed at the same hotel before and we had a bigger room for a cheaper price. Maybe that was because of Mardi Gras season or something.

Historically Classic Experience
The walls are a little thin. I could here the next doors neighbor's TV. Also the window are not tented so I could let in the light like I wanted to. But the structure of the building was nice, simple, but I wouldnt change a thing.
