Pros:

The location was close to a lot of things that we did.

Cons:

They closed the pool bar early two days in a row, we couldn't open our curtains because of construction right across the street from our window and we had to call house keeping to spray in our bathroom because we had cockroaches in the bathroom.

Pros:

We recently stayed at the Omni Royal for three nights and had an excellent experience. The hotel has been beautifully renovated, and the updates give it a fresh, elegant feel while preserving its character. The property was clean, comfortable, and well maintained. The roof top pool was also renovated and was a great place to relax and cool off after a day of NOLA summer heat. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quality hotel in the area.

Cons:

There were a few hours where the hotal was down to only one elevator, but this was quickly resolved.

Overpriced, old-fashioned but in a good location
Pros:

The front lobby and exterior of this hotel look expensive but once you get to the floor of your room, you will notice how old everything is. It's time for a major renovation! Dark stained carpet and bathrooms that do not function well in terms of how the space is utilized.

Cons:

The pool hours sucked and it was way too small. When large groups of people gather it makes it impossible for anyone else to use. Perhaps a sign-up sheet would be helpful.

Terrible air-conditioning
Pros:

Great location - walking distance to everything. The hotel looks gorgeous with a nice small pool area to escape the heat. The staff were incredibly friendly - could not fault the staff.

Cons:

The air-conditioning was awful. It literally felt like stepping into a sauna when we entered the room. We requested to move rooms and it was even worse in the next room so we gave up. We requested a portable fan to cool the room but it took 24 hours for the fan to arrive at our room, and then it did not cool the room at all. If you are a hot sleeper, this hotel is not for you.

My stay was a mix of positive experiences and some disappointments related to room accommodation
Pros:

The on-site jazz club was a wonderful amenity and provided an enjoyable atmosphere during my stay. Additionally, the hotel’s central location made it very convenient to explore the French Quarter and nearby attractions.

Cons:

My stay at the Omni Royal Orleans was mixed. Several staff members were friendly and went above and beyond, while others simply met expectations. My main concern was being placed in a room that was consistently too cold and directly below ongoing construction; although I was offered another room, this was not until after I had unpacked, and I feel I should have been informed about the renovations at check-in, additionally, the construction workers tripped the fire alarm and everybody had to evacuate out of the building. By the time, we were able to get our handicap family member downstairs then they finally called a false alarm.

Almost there, but not quite
Pros:

The staff was exceptionally polite and deserved recognition. Unfortunately the hotel is in dire need of renovation. Our room was described as petite; however, I did not expect it to be so cramped that it was difficult to navigate around the furnishings. Lastly, the room refrigerator initially appeared to be cool but stopped working during our stay, which resulted in items requiring refrigeration spoiling.

Disappointed
Pros:

You rated
My stay at the Omni Hotel was just okay. The location was excellent and very convenient, especially for attending Essence Fest and exploring the surrounding area. That said, there were several things that left me disappointed. The rooms are dated and could definitely use a refresh. On the morning of my checkout, housekeeping knocked on my door at 9:00 a.m., which woke me up well before I was ready to get up. I was also surprised and disappointed to see artwork featuring the Confederate flag displayed in the lobby. During a weekend when so many Black guests were visiting to celebrate Essence Fest, I found it to be insensitive and triggering. Hotels should strive to create a welcoming environment for all guests, and this display did not reflect that. While the location is a major advantage, my overall experience did not meet my expectations. Unfortunately, I won't be staying here again.
