    Just a proper fit for a weekend rest in New Orleans with outstanding value. The king suite we had was spacious and beautifully decorated, making it a cozy spot to unwind. Make sure to request housekeeping if you need your room serviced during your stay.

    Comfortable Stay with Room for Improvement

    We felt welcomed from the first moment, thanks to the friendly staff. The Essential Room was spacious and well-kept, making our three nights very enjoyable. However, be cautious about parking fees and check bike availability early. Explore the Peacock Room for a unique dining experience!

    elegant suite

    The room was spotless and dust-free, it had a wonderful soaking tub that reminded me to take it easy. Plus, the complimentary happy hour was a good surprise, especially that signature cocktail with white rum and green tea, made the evening brighter.

    Not exactly cheap but still manageable considering the experience.

    spacious room
    delicious food
    small gym
    check-in delays
    busy atmosphere

    The room was spacious and luxurious, complete with a fantastic view and modern design. I especially appreciated the complimentary iced coffee available in the morning and the delightful Hungarian beef stew served at the café. However, the gym was quite small and could benefit from more equipment, and there were occasional delays in check-in due to the busy atmosphere. Overall, an enjoyable stay with minor hitches.

    charming décor
    complimentary coffee
    historic character
    maintenance issues

    The Historic King Room stands out with its charming décor and unique character, embracing the city's heritage. Enjoying complimentary morning coffee in the Peacock Room was a delightful way to start the day.

    The ice machine's location in a different tower was a hassle when needing ice. Maintenance issues were apparent. the carpet had a noticeable stain, and one of the headboards was loose. Noise levels became an annoyance, particularly from the ventilation, and the nearby trash collection truck at 3 AM was disruptive. Also, breakfast expectations fell short. the $45 voucher did not cover much, causing us to dip into our pockets unexpectedly.

    kimpton is a fantastic place to stay! the location is perfect, just a short walk to key attractions, yet still quiet. the room was spacious and recently updated, and the on-site fitness center was packed with all the equipment, including peloton bikes! the staff was super friendly, especially the front desk that helped us check in early and was always smiling. breakfast at the hotel restaurant was also delicious!

    i strongly recommend.

    great location
    high parking cost
    limited breakfast options

    Our stay at Kimpton Hotel Fontenot was wonderful! The location was perfect, just a short walk away from the vibrant French Quarter, yet the hotel itself felt peaceful. Our room was spacious and beautifully designed, with a stunning view of the city. The highlight of our stay was the friendly and accommodating staff, especially Machiel, who went above and beyond to make us feel welcome.

    Parking was a bit pricey at $45.
