Close to the excitement, but just far enough away to relax. I was here during the 2009 Essence Music Festival. Very friendly & helpful staff. Rooms were comfortable, clean & quiet. My only gripe is that it's tough to find a cup of coffee without using room service. But I definitely recommend the W French Quarter!

The W Hotel in the French Quarter was a wonderful choice for me and my husband. The courtyard is simply amazing and very relaxing. The staff was super friendly and very helpful. The ambassador at the front desk even gave us a better room than we originally booked, just to be nice. The rooms were great! We don't recommend having a room overlooking the streets because that got fairly noisy during the night. We switched to a room overlooking the courtyard and that was a lot better for us.

I stayed at this hotel during the July 2007 Essence Festival and I've already re-booked for this year. The rooms are small, but well appointed and the decor is chic and trendy - like most W hotels. This property is smaller than the larger W hotel on Poydros, but I was happy with my choice. The street is 2 blocks from Bourbon, but extremely quiet. I ate at Bacco 4 times while I was there - the food was that good. Not to mention, The .25 cent drinks between 2-4! I highly recommend the W French Quarter.

I really loved this property, it's proximity, the decor. The staff there was very helpful on the 8-10 day trips I was there, it felt like a home away from home. I did enjoy the room located back by the courtyard most as it was so peaceful.

Right in the moddle of the French Quarters of the Old Big Easy, this place looked like a cross between French Provincial and Spanish Rennaisance. Antibellum. I believe that's the word. We had hoped for better, but we were judging the book by the cover. The rooms, while smaller than expected were cozy, clean, and charismatic. We plopped into the bed and sank into down three floors. The beds are that soft. The concierge was extremely amiable and so helpful in arranging tours and concert tickets and maps and connections that we would've adopted him, given the chance. This place is upscale on the inside and quaintly antiquaited on the outside. It loses a few points for being a bit smallish in the bathroom, but then again, I stand 6'6" tall and haven't had too much luck with shower or bath sizes. I did, however, get lost in their bed! We plan to re-visit for our 5-year anniversary.

This is a striking, upscale hotel with small but beautifully-appointed rooms, centrally-located in the French Quarter. However, I had no maid service over a three-day weekend - I was told by the front desk, "We are too busy with people checking out." Finally, I stopped a maid in the hallway and managed to get from her some clean towels. When I complained at checkout, the front desk staff was polite but not at all concerned, giving me the impression that mine was not an uncommon experience.

I am amazed how a hotel like this one, who dares to advertise themself with high-end hotel, in reality, is poor when it comes to service. I really love the amenities and location of the W-hotel...but the service...oh...so poor service! Whatever/whenever line is guaranteeing the guest "whatever they need whenever". well we were using this little phone button a lot and had just a disappointing experiences over and over again with the staff: - their attitude was rather bored sounding on the phone, meaning that we almost felt bad calling the W/W line to ask for anything. -roomservice from Bacco Hotel took in average an hour and 15 minutes for EACH ORDER!!!! I mean, do guest at their tables also wait for that long??? Food is truly delicious but why it has to take so long to walk over the pool. (between the restaurant door and our room is the tiny pool). -Staff was forgetful..one time there was silverware missing when the roomservice arrived and it took 20 minutes them to bring the silverware and surprise surprise there were two knives instead of a fork and knives!!! I mean these are truly serious mistakes for a $500 room per night service! -Apparently we had played the radio a little bit too loud at 5pm in the afternoon and my roommate saw (while I was in the shower) that a staff member (male) walked into my room lowering the voice of the radio!

I Love the service it was awesome. You treated us like royalty. And When my my wife and I got engaged the on the 17th floor it has changed my life and i will always remember the W. Yall RULE.

My most profound memory of our weekend stay at The W was opening up the French window that looked out over the little street below, a narrow street lined with antique stores and posts where horses used to rest. The interior of our room was comfortable luxury, with little treats in the fridge available for easy purchase. The shower was spacious. Although we had rented a car, we spent most of weekend on foot--exploring the French Quarter. On Friday night, we walked two blocks to Burbon street and perused the jazz halls, specialty stores, and restaurants. The famous party street was so close it felt during those days that we lived in the neighborhood, yet just far enough away to be relatively quiet and allow for a good nights sleep. On Saturday we shopped the nearby antique stores and visited museums. On Sunday morning we walked a few blocks down to Jackson Square and attended mass at the cathedral. After dinner on Sunday night, we rested in the courtyard by the fountain. Between the water and the trees, I looked up to see the moon shining upon us. My last night in New Orleans, I took a photograph of the moon.
