Tiffney at the Hilton, New Orleans is wonderful
Checked into the Hilton on the River in New Orleans on Poydras. Just had to write in and let Tiffney know that I was so impressed by her kindness and professionalism. Excellent job Tiffney!!!

Damarys does a great job!
Damarys was super awesome and friendly with our members and staff. She made sure our registration desk was nice and tidy. She does a great job and you can tell she takes pride in her work.

Good Location but not worth the price
The hotel location is great and convenient for a cruise, but overall not that great. It is very expensive. Easy enough to get a taxi for. There is a streetcar stop right in front which is good. It is busy and noisy. For a five star price the service is lacking. We ordered room service breakfast for three which was $60. Unfortunately the server who dropped it off quickly ran away and was missing items. There was no way to confirm the order because they don’t give receipts. I tried calling room service but they only gave an automated phone service. I then went to the front desk to get them to call and actually speak to them. Then they went up more food but still missing items. The server said they were too busy and rushed off.

Great location
I've stayed here several times because we love the location - it's within walking distance to the French Quarter and Canal Street, easy access to the Riverwalk, across the street from the casino, and a block away from the streetcars. I've been lucky enough to get rooms with window views of the river, which is neat to sit and watch the boat traffic. The hotel is huge as it has convention space, so it can be easy to get turned around in. There are convenient and delicious eateries and amenities on property. Parking is a bit pricey at $50/night, but it's in a secure, covered garage. They do have valet parking available for just a little more. We had issues once with the room card not working to let us in/out of the garage, and somehow ended up being charged for an extra night of parking, but were able to get it resolved. Keep in mind there is no where to temporarily park while checking in (common throughout downtown NOLA), so have a plan beforehand. The renovated rooms are fantastic. Clean, cool colors in the decor, comfortable beds. The floors that haven't been renovated do show their age and have darker colors, fixtures, and carpet throughout the rooms, and the beds aren't as comfortable. The older rooms also have shower curtains that are too short, so we had to put extra towels on the floor to soak up the water and avoid slipping when stepping out. In all the rooms, the A/C resets itself afyer an undetermined amount time (and often in the middle of the night) to 72, which is weird and I ended up waking up sweating since the duvets are down feather (why you have cold weather bedding in the south is beyond me). I'm also not a fan of the duvets - they're just sandwiched between two sheets and the feathers pop out and poke you. Check in can be chaos with quite a long line, but they are usually pretty efficient. If you have any kind of status as a Hilton Honors member, they do have a separate line that gets priority. Or even better, skip the line entirely and check in on their app to get a digital key. Check out is also easy as you can either call or text the front desk, or use the app to avoid the line. There is usually a table set up in the lobby around check in hours with cookies (or one time they had gumbo samples) and fruit infused water. There is also a $30/night resort fee whether you use the amenities or not. (Hilton - please STOP with the resort fees and just include it in the price of the stay, or make the 'premium' amenities a la carte!) This does include a per person food and beverage credit for onsite dining, or can be used in their grab and go market area, access to the pool and fitness center, rentals for pickleball equipment if that's your thing, and 'premium' wifi. I thought I saw there was also a discount offered for one of the paddleboat tour companies. Overall, I will stay here again, but there are less expensive options in the city that are just as nice.

The spot is awesome, Kiara made my weekend!
Stayed here for my bachelor party because of the location near the quarter and right by the river and it was a great time. I had 5 rooms booked, one of which was a suite with a living room for the team to hang out in and the suite setup was so convenient and spacious. Kiara at the front desk helped me check in early and get me set up so that my group's rooms were all together. Came down 3 times to check in as my group arrived one at a time. Totally made our whole weekend! There are shops and even a Café du Monde nearby as well as a bar and convenience store in the lobby so highly recommend the spot!
