Royal St Charles Hotel

For a one night get away this hotel is perfect. We just needed a place to lay our heads for a few hours between a concert and a shopping trip the next day. The hotel is perfect for the price we paid. If it didnt offer free parking I probably would have found another hotel. Next time under the same circumstances, I would probably still stay at this hotel. The decor is updated yet still worn. The room had a nice look. The decorations are modern yet the condition of the room is sub par. The wallpaper around the window was peeling and there was mold on the bathtub trim. Its a little noisy due to the streetcars. The bed was comfortable and the location is unbeatable. Just a few blocks away from Bourbon and the House of Blues and walking distance to most things in the French Quarter. The staff was friendly and helpful. You are charged an $8 convience fee for the use of internet and the gym. I have come to learn this is getting to be a common charge at most hotels in New Orleans; so just be forwarned. Still the free parking was the deal sealer for this hotel. If you are looking for a hotel to just lay your head or your going to new orleans just to party it up, stay here!!!

For what we needed the hotel was great. Rooms a little small but they were clean and we had a big window that over looked the street. Easy to get to all the things we wanted to see and the valet parking was great. Called down and car was brought around promptly. Only complaint was the soda machines had out dated product and some of them did not work.
