Sehr schoene traditionelle Lobby

Natasha at The Roosevelt New Orleans was absolutely exceptional. She is the kind of person who makes guests want to stay longer and come back again. From the moment we arrived, she was incredibly attentive, professional, and genuinely caring. She made sure every need was met and went above and beyond to ensure we had an amazing experience. Her level of customer service exceeded all expectations, and her warm personality truly stood out. The Roosevelt is fortunate to have someone like Natasha representing their hotel. She made our stay unforgettable.

Landmark hotel

The Roosevelt is the best hotel I have ever stayed at. The property is fantastic, the facilities are top notch, but it's the staff that really sets it apart-they always go above and beyond.

The hotel is special to me and my wife, and we always stay with them when we are in town! This last trip was celebrating our anniversary. I spoke with Travis Paisant, the front office director, and he went out of his way to make our stay incredible! We simply cannot wait to visit again!

The Roosevelt is the only place we stay when we're in New Orleans. The location is centralized to the city, and puts us within walking distance of our favorite shops and restaurants.

It is a beautiful older hotel, and it has been maintained extremely well.

While veryone we have ever interacted with has always been helpful, knowledgeable, and kind, there is one person in particular who stands out above the rest, a bellman named Ernie. Ernie has helped us with our bags and other things on multiple occasions, and has always made us feel at "home". He is not pretentious, but instead makes us feel like The Roosevelt is HIS home, and we are welcome there. As always, this last stay was just amazing, and what put it over the top was Ernie. Thank you Ernie for being so helpful and kind. We will see you next time.

Walking through your lobby breath taking ! I met Marshall and Justin and Ernie and they were very welcoming ! Thank you Ernie for the recommendation on breakfast!

I travel for a living and have top tier status in all of the major hotel chains since I spend about 16 nights a month in hotels.

This past weekend I recently stayed here for the first time, with my wife, for her birthday trip to NOLA.

The positives… It’s a great location, very convenient for getting to the usual tourist places. The
lobby is beautiful and they did upgrade us to a suite. The room was nice and clean, quiet, comfortable, and housekeeping was responsive when we asked for more towels. The staff at the Teddy Cafe provided great service and were very friendly.

Now the negatives, and there are quite a few more than expected for a hotel of this level.

First thing is that I had a small package sent to arrive the day before we did, and they charged me a $5 handling fee which is absurd (I don’t care about the money, it’s the principle). And they wouldn’t bring it to me or hold it at the desk, they made me come to the 2nd floor built-in UPS store to pick it up where they told me they would charge me the handing fee after the fact. If you’re going to charge me a handling fee at least deliver it to my room.

Also the front desk staff gave me grief about having a pizza delivered one evening during our stay. They didn’t make sense so I’m not sure what they were trying to convey but they seemed miffed that we were getting food delivery to the front desk after hours.

As far as the room goes, the bathroom was tiny and so small that 2 people couldn’t fit in it at once. It was very nice but just too small. Would have rather had less space in the bedroom so that the bathroom was more useable. Also the house keeping was only every other day, and again, with two people, the miniscule trash cans filled up fast.

Some of the mini-bar items were literally 4x the cost of what one could find outside the hotel and the daily F&B credit cant be used for mini-bar items. The credits also cant be used at the Italian restaurant in the lobby, or for room service. And they don’t accumulate, they must be spent per day.

The north end of the lobby smelled like sewage most of the time and the lobby itself needs more seating for those waiting on their ride or valet.

I appreciate having an automatic concierge service but sometimes they would take hours to respond to e-mails. Since it was my wife’s birthday they also promised a bottle of champagne in the room but yet it never arrived. I didn’t expect it, but don’t promise and something and then not deliver.

The food in Fountain Lounge downstairs was bland, the portions were tiny, and incredibly overpriced. The gift shop / concession store did not have enough food/drink selection in the lobby and was also not open 24 hours. So one couldn’t get a snack at any time unlike most Hilton properties. The website says brunch is available until 1pm but we were told otherwise by the host which was disappointing.

Overall if I had paid full price for this hotel I would have been very upset at what I had gotten in return, but fortunately this was a points and free night redemption. Since it was free yes I would stay there again, but I would not pay full price to stay at this hotel when there are others that are almost as good for a lot less.

Also, just FYI, the Roosevelt Hotel Bar on ground level next door to the hotel isn't associated with the hotel despite signage depicting otherwise.

Absolutely stunning hotel rooms and beautiful and spotless great coffee machine which the pods were replaced every day love all the special little details, the staff were so friendly couldn’t fault this hotel would definitely recommend and I’d definitely be happy to stay there again

Historical and central.

Had an amazing stay at the Roosevelt New Orleans Waldorf Astoria Hotel. The hotel is beautiful, elegant, and full of historic charm while still feeling modern and comfortable. The staff was welcoming and attentive from check-in to check-out, and the rooms were spotless, spacious, and very relaxing.
The location was perfect — close to everything in the French Quarter but still peaceful at night. The lobby and décor were stunning, especially the lighting and atmosphere. Definitely one of the best hotel experiences in New Orleans, and I would absolutely stay here again!

This was the best luxury property hotel that I have stayed at in years! The staff makes you feel right at home, I couldn’t have felt more welcome and comfortable during my stay. The staff truly goes above and beyond to show their compassion and hospitality to every guest! Plus, it’s a GORGEOUS property! I will
stay at The Roosevelt every time I visit New Orleans now. Feels like my home away from
home!!

Lovely and big room. Well appointed. Excellent and efficient front desk staff. Also the turndown service is a treat.

Another wonderful stay at this classic New Orleans hotel. This is our go-to hotel every time we are in town. The beds are WONDERFUL, rooms are comfortable and spotlessly clean. A drink at the Sazerac bar is a mandatory part of every stay, great service and delicious drinks. Overall excellent service from everyone we encountered. A special shout to Justin, who greeted me in the lobby with a warm towel to dry off after getting caught in the rain.

Location for Touring

Another wonderful Jazz Fest stay at the Roosevelt. Our room is always spacious, and the team is so kind and efficient. Flex, Hillary at check-in, Ray at the Concierge desk, Rachel always remember my friends and I at the San Bar, Travis at the front desk is always kind and thoughtful. Stephen, Ernie and the older man with glasses at the door, always remember me and it makes me feel special.

Must try, for a historical hotel it is just lovely and the love the attention, and service. Oh, and the pool service is ALWAYS so pleasant. I wish I could remember the bartender and servers name.

I would like to begin by extending our most sincere gratitude to the entire staff at the Roosevelt Hotel. The experience we had here for our anniversary was absolutely incredible. The accomodation was impeccable, as were the facilities. But the true gems at the Roosevelt are the staff. From a cast of genuinely kind characters, it is difficult to pick a favorite. The gentlemen of the bell staff will give you lots of history of the building, and they do it in a way that is unmistakeably New Orleans. The front desk staff is one of the finest I have ever dealt with, and the other supporting staff are nothing short of excellent.
To specifically name a few, Justin from security extended a welcome when we first arrived that was reminiscent of a family member opening the door when you get home for the holidays. Kent at the front desk did not rest until all of our expectations were exceeded with several impressive gestures. Ari, and Duc run at tight ship in the Fountain Lounge, and the list goes on and on, to name each staff member that impressed us, would be too many names. So let me once again extend our most sincere gratitude to all of the staff at the Roosevelt Hotel for making our dreams come true!
