Fabulous time at my bestie’s wedding in NOLA! Sadly ESPN did not come in on my room tv, that’s no bueno. Also, I’m pretty sure that the heat went out the last day, or was that y’all telling me it’s time to go?!?😋 My room was about 66-67 degrees the last day. That’s chilly when taking a shower. Wouldn’t prevent me from staying again. Beautified hotel, great location, and if the price is right; I’ll be there! 💜💛💚

Great hotel in a great location, and I would stay again. The King restaurant and Peacock room both had excellent food and drink and fantastic service. Front desk staff were very courteous and helpful. The room was fine, but nothing special. We unfortunately had problems with housekeeping; they never restocked the room properly, and we had to repeatedly ask for towels, etc. We were incorrectly charged for minibar purchases after checking out (this was fixed after a call). Not what you would expect from a hotel of this level.

The stay at Kimpton Fortenot was A plus. I was able to get assistance with anything I needed. The valet was so helpful, I wasn’t aware of how to check my car in and Ross explained it to me and made the process easy. The front desk staff was patient and helpful, especially one beautiful young lady with long hair, she was always friendly and professional. The hotel is beautiful. I just wish the bathrooms had more counter space and the offered a Buffett breakfast. The hotel itself is beautiful, art all over. So pretty.
