Clean, quiet, and well-run

A great respite from the action in New Orleans! The hotel is walkable to everything near the quarter, but also removed too, so that you can really get some rest and charge up your batteries. Clean, well-serviced, and great rooms. We stayed in the historical rooms, but might choose the main building next time.

Our room was not ready upon check in time. We waited an hour for our reservation in the lobby during the busiest holiday of the year. Their front door makes an awful sound every time it closed. Our room 403 made an awful knocking sound all day, all night. The first night was rough sleeping. The next evening I reported the problem and was told they would send someone to fix it. That never happened. So I requested a different room at midnight which they had available. Thankfully. When we were able to park our vehicle with the hotel their automatic system via phone did not work. We waited 1.5 hours for our car. Then when we left to return home at 4:30 am we were told there is no valet service and needed to retrieve our vehicle and had to search for it in the parking garage. All these frustrations are preventable through proper management and maintenance of property. Disappointing.

THE BEST HOTEL IN NEW ORLEANS!

Not only was i able to reserve my room without paying upfront, we were greeted with the warmest welcome from Semaj at the front desk with treats and free passes to get on the street car. He was the ABSOLUTE best, and i pray they keep him around and give him a raise! The kimpton was right on the parade route, so all we had to do was walk right outside to enjoy all of the festivities. Each day there was something new and exciting for us and we were also able to wxtend out checkout for our latw flight! The Kimpton has absolutely become our favorite hotel, and we won't be staying ANYWHERE ELSE!
