Rooms & Rates
Overview
Location is king at the InterContinental New Orleans. Travelers and business types prefer this hotel for its Central Business District address that's still a short walk to the French Quarter. It earns top ratings from all guests, having recently been named to the list of Best Hotels in New Orleans by readers of Conde Nast Traveler.
Rooms are spacious and feature 42-inch flat-panel TVs, Keurig coffee makers, rainfall showerheads and complimentary Wi-Fi throughout; guests can also arrange for turndown service in the evenings. The hotel also has an outdoor rooftop pool on the 15th floor (one of the best in the city according to Oyster.com) as well as a fitness center; guests can also arrange for private car service or even babysitting.
The hotel's main restaurant, Trenasse, features Gulf Coast cuisine with plenty of fresh seafood and steaks; the Times-Picayune says the restaurant "dishes up comfort with confidence." The St. Charles streetcar runs right in front of the hotel. The French Quarter's jazz clubs, restaurants and bars are a couple of blocks west; you can walk over to Bourbon Street in less than 10 minutes.

The shower head attachment did not work, however the shower was clean. The A/C worked wonderfully and the bed was comfortable. Wish it was a few blocks closer, and the valet wasn't so unreasonable.

Room service staff was great. I ordered breakfast and the coffee was cold. They actually called a few minutes after deliver to see if my breakfast was ok. I told them about the cold coffee and they ran up a fresh pot with hot coffee in it.

I requested a bathtub in my room (health reasons).. didn't get one.
Arrived at about 1am tired and sweaty from watching my son's game (Tulane) and valet was nowhere to be found. Valet is required at this hotel for parking so one would expect the attendants to be present. I waited and waited. And waited. Finally I left my vehicle and went looking for someone to park my car (he was inside just hanging out).
I got to my room.. exhausted and ready for a bath. No bath. So great, I'll take a shower. The shower was BROKEN. The water would only come out of a small strange handheld wand affixed halfway down the shower. I call the front desk, who calls engineering, who says they're "not sure what I'm trying to achieve". WELL... I'm trying to achieve WATER hitting my body so I can SHOWER. They offer a room change but by now it's 2am and I'm already undressed and exhausted so I splashed water the best I could to get marginally clean (not able to wash hair) and went to bed.
I told them about my experience when checking out.. one would think me being a first time guest and an IHG Rewards member they might invite me back to give them another chance. What I got instead.. but did not discover until I had driven 4 hours back home.. was a BILL for my stay. That's right. They CHARGED me for the hotel and taxes even though I prepaid for the stay via Travelzoo. So now I have to call and try to unravel all of that. I usually stay at the Windsor Court.. I was looking for another option for my frequent trips to New Orleans. Safe to say this won't be it.

Old, worn. Not at all Intercontinental quality - I’ve enjoyed their other hotels and been impressed. This one is just worn out.

The staff didn't know anything you ask ! And they sent me to the wrong parking garage twice, after telling me there's only one garage . There two attached to the motel. I walked twenty seven floors in the garage looking for my car. Staff found it quite entertaining that I couldn't find my car. After three times in garage I went out on my own and found the other garage on the other side of the motel. Found my car in less than ten minutes. By now I am exausted and I pulled muscle in legs. Absolutely no excuse for not helping customer who pays there salary. Will never return ! Also we drink a lot of coffee . Ask twice a day for coffee for kuric ,they would only give two cups at a time. No store nearby to purchase my own. Never will I return !
