Crowne Plaza New Orleans French Qtr - Astor By Ihg - A landmark hotel at Canal and Bourbon Streets with 32000 sq ft of event space and rooftop pool

Located at the intersection of Canal Street and Bourbon Street, this historic New Orleans hotel features 32000 square feet of event space including 13 meeting rooms and a grand ballroom. The Crowne Plaza offers thoughtfully designed rooms with premium amenities, free Wi-Fi, flat-screen HDTVs, and plush bedding. A 24-hour fitness center equipped with ellipticals, treadmills, and free weights allows guests to maintain their workout routines. The property's crown jewel is Dickie Brennan's Bourbon House, serving fresh seafood, Creole specialties, and over 150 bourbons and American whiskeys. Crowne Plaza's seasonal rooftop pool provides a refreshing escape above the city streets. Steps away are Jackson Square, the Audubon Aquarium, and the vibrant nightlife of the French Quarter.

Pros

Prime location at the intersection of Canal Street and Bourbon Street provides immediate access to French Quarter attractions

On-site Dickie Brennan's Bourbon House restaurant offers an authentic New Orleans dining experience with over 150 whiskey selections

Comprehensive business facilities with 32000 sq ft of flexible meeting space and professional event planning services

Seasonal rooftop pool offers a unique vantage point above the French Quarter

Cons

The busy intersection location can mean street noise during peak times

Valet parking fees are $49 USD per night with limited access during parades and events

“The hotel's location places you squarely in the French Quarter, a real advantage for experiencing New Orleans; while the rooms could use some updating, the attentive front desk staff stands out. For business or leisure, the extensive event space and rooftop pool are notable assets; however, be aware of potential noise issues. It's a property with both strong points and drawbacks to consider.”

super Service Made the Stay Special

attentive assistancefast valetlack of towels
I received very attentive assistance from Dhonraj. He quickly helped us with our luggage from the room. Dhonraj made sure we didn't forget anything and he called for our car. Car valet was fast and nice to work with.
i found the lack of hot water inconvenient for two days. The staff didn't inform us during check-in. I also lacked wash towels and calling multiple times didn't resolve it. Stock was consistently for one person even if we were a group of three.
Facilities

the hotel features a fitness center equipped with three treadmills, two stationary bikes and a selection of free weights, supporting various workout routines, a nice place to spend the time.
Dining
8/10
The breakfast service included a menu with limited options. only a small buffet was available on weekends, meaning that during the week you could not take all you can eat options, and it was pricy.

The hotel location provided easy access to many attractions. My room was clean and well-kept. Check-in WAS swift and efficient.
My room lacked sufficient natural light. It always seemed dark. The carpet had several noticeable stains. The bathroom sink drained slowly, a little inconvenient.
