Hotel Ritz-Carlton, New Orleans
Expert reviews
“From its entrance on a busy section of downtown Canal Street, you’d never guess just how much spacious luxury awaits you at this resort-like Ritz Carlton location. The top notch spa and beautiful public spaces let you recharge in the utmost elegance, while still landing you close to the Canal Street streetcar and some of the city’s best sights.”
Featured as Fodor’s Choice in New Orleans.
“It may not be the ritziest of all Ritz-Carltons, but do expect Ritz-level luxury, service, and amenities, including a stellar spa and the soignée Davenport Lounge. It’s all quite gracious and stately, though the hotel is a bit confusing to navigate.”
Featured as Frommer’s Exceptional Choice in New Orleans.
“As you step into the grand, marble-clad lobby of The Ritz-Carlton, you’ll notice a sweet fragrance that blankets the air. No, it’s not the towering flower display, it’s actually the intoxicating aroma of Southern magnolia, the hotel’s signature scent that welcomes you with an air of fragrant refinery.”
“The New Orleans outpost of this global luxury brand is the grand dame of Canal Street, regally occupying a city block and delivering exclusivity and proximity to the French Quarter. Local touches offer a vivid sense of place.”

It is a nice hotel
The shower was amazing! It was huge, marble and has a large rain showerhead.
The room was smaller than the photo and it was a haul to get arounf the hotel. You have to take a elevator to get to the reservation desk andthen separate elevators to get to your room. Even after your are checked in it requires numerous elevators to enter and exit the building. It can be confusing as signage is not super apparent.

Valet parking drivers hit my husbands new car didn’t inform us tried to cover it up instead of being honest about it, manager Earl and LP had an attitude about it like we did something wrong

Excellent stay with great staff. The spa is worth the $25 dollar fee
Stunning hotel and very relaxing
Wished that the towels were not changed so frequently, there was no environmental policy
19 November 2023
Very good
The door on Canel street is closed at night. A lot of homeless/ ruff sleepers in the area, very concerned we were exposed as we were at the door. It would be favourable to have the door manned.

Wonderful hotel
Fantastic rooms, comfortable beds, everything felt luxurious, good food, helpful staff

No complaints

Had a great stay. Would have loved to have the ability to make coffee or tea in the room.
Close to the French Quarter which allowed us to walk to many places. Staff were excellent. Room was comfortable.
Had to pass by many loiterers to get to the French Quarter. Resorted to crossing the street to avoid them.

Very nice hotel in a great location
Very nice hotel in a great location for all the attractions. The staff were very polite, friendly and helpful. Nice touch with the morning coffee station and beignets in the afternoon
Spa had some nice facilities it was a shame there aren’t any communal areas where me and my husband could relax together. The treatment rooms had a very noisy fan, which wasn’t very relaxing and small details were missing that you would expect in a high end spa such as scented air and scented face cloths etc. It was also a shame that after spending 5 nights and spending plenty in the bar and restaurant, we still had to pay to have a shower, to freshen up as we had a very late flight.

All was great

Best place to stay in going to New Orleans !
It was gorgeous. And the staff were so kind and helpful. We had a stroller and the doorman every time we would walk would help us up and down the front steps. They always had water waiting at both entrances due to the extreme heat.
I can’t complain it was a great trip all around. They do only let you park using valet which was an extra charge but they probably had that disclosed somewhere in their policy and I over looked it.

Very enjoyable. Will return. Thanks for another fine Ritz experience.
Beautiful inside. Huge room and bath. Spacious shower. Comfy bed. Great polite staff. Free newspapers in lobby. Free water in lobby. And maybe best — early check in at about 11am was wonderful. Thanks.
Hallways way too cold, on third floor anyway. Took too long to get hot water in bath sinks.

Very good
We loved the study room, and going to the Davenport, they are a great band! Also the courtyard was amazing to rest in.
We tried to get dessert at the bistro but they would only seat you if you were ordering dinner. I would understand if they were full but it was late and maybe half full.

Fabulous
Restaurantes and public areas too cold
30 June 2023
Definitely enjoyed my stay!
I loved the overall cleanliness and ambiance of the hotel. The staff was super accommodating. The younger door man with the glasses was really helpful and nice. The beignets in the lobby were also amazing. The bartenders Brittney and the man that works with her were super knowledgeable about the cocktails and local cuisine.
I was very upset that the pool was closed TFN and it wasn't mentioned on the website. I really wanted to swim and that would have changed my mind about booking my stay there. I wish I was notified in advance. I also didn't like the fact that my welcome card in my room was addressed to someone else.

Very good
We enjoyed The breakfast buffet variety which included a touch of the local flair. Wait staff were very helpful and attentive.
The check in process. Apparently even though we had a consecutive weeks stay, we had to run our credit card (4) times as it was set up as 4 separate reservations. I’m fact, my credit card was put on hold assuming it was an unauthorized transaction. being done at the same property Despite that, it is an excellent place to stay at and strategically located to shopping and eateries.

Too short, we would love to come back when we can spend more time to enjoy more of the amenities.
Beautiful in every aspect.

Everything. I never stayed at the Ritz-Carlton before and it went beyond what I expected for any hotel.
Pool was a little small but still very nice and it also had a whirlpool .

The hotel was in a great location with amazing staff who provided outstanding service.

parking deck and valet was amazing. New Orleans is not an easy city to travel and leave your car without worry about parking. front desk is super friendly and helpful. no nonsense and ready to help in any way possible. rooms were very clean as well.

Always a no brainer.
Bar is always great and location can't be beat.
The rooms are starting to get a little dated.

Great weekend at a wonderful hotel.
Club was awesome. Food was amazing. I will stay again due to the quality of the food and staff on club level. And the spa was amazing.
The room was a bit small. And my fridge didn’t work… but they brought in a large fridge to help so it was fine.
