What's the word for W New Orleans? Spicy. W New Orleans is conveniently located near the river , just steps from the notorious French Quarter but in a quieter location for a peaceful night's rest. W New Orleans is close to shopping, Harrah's Casino and the Warehouse District. Eat. Drink. And be merry. Legendary restaurants, incredible jazz and the best of New Orleans's notorious nightlife surround you. The Ernest Morial Convention Center is also within walking distance of the hotel. Let lounge impresario Rande Gerber put his voodoo on you at Whiskey Blue . Or fall under the spell of flavor…

The Scene – This hotel is giddy with ironic design twists, from the waiting bed in the lobby to the mega-size chairs in the sarcastically stocked library-as if any of the jet setters who check in here would have the time (or the inclination) to enjoy the stacks of board games, let alone lounge in the tranquil bamboo garden. – – The Details – Each of the 423 rooms boasts minimalist design and the famously comfortable "W beds," custom-made with fluffy down. While the cool factor is at a maximum, elbow room is at a minimum. Rooms, however, do have data ports and other…

Very sleek
by amynewyork
Stayed here with a group of girls for a bachelorette party and loved it. Sleek, neat and a perfect spot to hang out.
- Pros: Great place, Good bar
- Cons: Right next to Harrahs.. could be dangerous

Atrocious service
by sabrowne
The staff was incompetent, slow, and rude. They forgot to clean the room twice in our week-long stay. When they did clean the room, they forgot something. One day no toilet paper, another day no washcloths. When we called for replacements they said "sure" and then never came with them. We checked in at midnight after a long day of travel. They gave us a nice room, but the heater was broken. Their solution was to keep us in the freezing room for 45 mins while we waited for maintenance. The guy could not fix it, so they told HIM to move us to another much smaller, cruddier room. We had to ask to merely be given the same type of room we were originally booked. This place is just awful. Stay here only if you are more interested in looking cool than in receiving competent service.
- Pros: bed, scene
- Cons: , service, service

Happy Homecoming
by claney
I lived in N.O. for 6 years, went back this Christmas with my fiance and 16-month-old son. When I booked the reservation I mentioned that I would be traveling with a toddler, and lo and behold there was a crib in the room when we walked in. I brought Baby Einstein videos with me, as Expedia said every room had a VCR. When mine had a DVD player instead, they happily had an engineer switch it out. Service: impeccable. Every request was satisfied, and a phone call followed to make sure of it. Only suggestion: a little more lighting in the rooms, please! (The rooms are definitely designed for more baby-making.) Let's find some dimmers, guys.
- Pros: Service, BEDS, Design
