The hype
Travelers love the walkable location and friendly staff but consistently note the rooms feel tired and need a refresh.
Renaissance New Orleans Pere Marquette French Q
$150-250/ νύχτα
Κρατήστε αυτό αν You want the French Quarter location without the Bourbon Street hangover, housed in a historic jazz-themed skyscraper.
Γιατί Το Αγαπούν
- Technically in the CBD but literally across the street from the French Quarter
- Historic 1925 'skyscraper' architecture with unique room layouts
- Tacklebox restaurant on-site serves solid charbroiled oysters and gumbo
Γρήγορη Ματιά: A convenient, historic base that's showing its age with peeling wallpaper and thin walls, but the location makes up for the wear.
Αξιολόγηση από @WayfaringAimlessly: I stayed here for a mix of work and exploring, and the jazz theme totally won me over. The lobby bar is a whole mood with that brass wall, and finding a vintage rotary phone outside my room was such a fun touch. The bed was super comfy, too.

Reality check
The 'historic' charm often translates to peeling wallpaper, pink mold in grout, and noisy elevators.
- You want to be 1 block from Canal Street but sleep in a slightly quieter zone
- You appreciate historic architecture over cookie-cutter modern boxes
- You need a decent on-site gym and a quick breakfast option
Καθαριότητα & Συντήρηση
7.5
- Housekeeping: Daily service is generally reliable, but guests report missed dust in corners and under beds.
- Bathroom hygiene: A recurring weak point: reports of pink mold in grout and peeling wallpaper due to humidity.
- Maintenance: Showing age. Peeling paint, scuffed furniture, and worn carpets are common complaints.
- Linens & towels: Standard Marriott quality—clean and crisp, though some towels feel a bit thin.
- Odors & scents: Lobby is heavily scented; some rooms have a lingering musty or damp smell.

Is there a resort fee?
Yes, a daily 'Destination Fee' of approximately $23.35 + tax is added to the room rate.

Εσωτερικές Συμβουλές
- ✨
Skip the hotel breakfast and walk 2 mins to Majoria's Commerce Restaurant for the best biscuits in the CBD.
- ✨
The 'New Orleans Coffee & Beignet Co.' in the lobby is convenient but often has a long line; walk to a local cafe instead.
- ✨
Ask for a 'quiet room' note on your reservation; the front desk knows which rooms suffer most from the elevator noise.
5 πράγματα που πρέπει να ξέρετε πριν φύγετε
💡The elevators can be slow and sound like a 'freight train' in adjacent rooms.
💡Windows are often painted shut or sealed aggressively, so no fresh air.
💡The 'historic' status means some rooms have odd shapes or pillars in the middle.
💡Bathroom grout often has persistent pink mold issues due to humidity and age.
💡The lobby scent is heavily perfumed to mask the old-building smell.
