“The Perfect Stay!”

Ramada Plaza Hotel - Inn on Bourbon

5 of 5 stars
Walnut Creek CA
Jun 6, 2008

What a wonderful place to stay in the French Quarter!

The location...if you want to stay in the middle of all the action...can't be beat. The staff, especially Larry the concierge, was beyond excellent. Larry was as genuine as can be, and really helped us settle in for our stay. The front desk staff was also very pleasant. I had booked the cheapest room available, figuring we weren't going to be staying indoors much anyway. When the girl at the front desk saw which room I had booked, she insisted on upgrading us to a larger room for free. She stated the room I had booked was very small, and she knew we would not be comfortable in it. She didn't have to do that, but she went out of her way and it made our stay that much better.

As for the room, it was perfect for a three-night visit. We had plenty of room to move around, it was clean and in good repair, and the bed was probably one of the most comfortable hotel beds I've ever slept in.

We didn't dine in the hotel (except for a bagel in the morning), but we did take advantage of the pool area one afternoon. So relaxing! There were only a couple other people out there, and we were able to truly relax and enjoy the facilities. If you stay here, you must spend a little time relaxing by the pool!

I would highly recomment the Inn on Bourbon to anyone staying in New Orleans. We will definitely be back.

“charged me for someone else's mess!”

Ramada Plaza Hotel - Inn on Bourbon

1 of 5 stars
Oxford MS

1/1 found this review helpful

The hotel was fine until the charge cleared my banking account. They charged me an additional $75 for deep cleaning. There was an obnoxiously large, bright red stain at the foot of the bed, and my friend noticed it upon arrival. He even commented on the mess. We dismissed it, and continued our vacation. We spent a minimal amount of time in the room, and absolutely had nothing to do with a stain. I spoke to multiple clerks and they told me that I made the mess. I did nothing to mess up that hotel room, and I refuse to have someone tell me that I did...WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE

“Reasonably priced hotel”

Ramada Plaza Hotel - Inn on Bourbon

May 24, 2008

If you want to be right in the middle of the action, this is the place for you. It is right on Bourdon Street, and is centrally located in the French Quarter. Since all the bars and music clubs on Bourdon Street are a hop and skip away from this hotel, you can hear all the noise from the street in the room (if your room is on the street side). Otherwise, for the price, this hotel is reasonable and clean for the rate of $74 a night. If you want a quiet hotel away from the partying scene, this is not the hotel for you.

P.S. They also have a nice pool.

“Great location and value!”

Ramada Plaza Hotel - Inn on Bourbon

4 of 5 stars
Philadelphia
Apr 23, 2008

My boyfriend and I stayed here for four nights, and I'd have to say that I was pleasantly surprised. If you want to be in the middle of all the action of the French Quarter, then this is it.

Since it is located right on Bourbon Street, it can get a bit noisy- so if you want to go to bed anytime before 4 a.m., I'd suggest that you request a courtyard room. The rooms facing the street, however, have a balcony, which would have been nice. We didn't spend much time in the room, so we didn't really care.

The hotel itself is beautiful, and the staff were accomodating. We got there before the room was ready, and they offered to hold our luggage there so we could walk around and explore until our room was ready.

The only negative things I could say were that we requested a king bed and were given two doubles instead. Also, even though we couldn't hear any noise from the street, we could hear housekeeping every single morning, as well as any other noises in the hallways outside of the rooms.

Other than that, the overal stay was excellent. Great location, clean rooms, good service. I would definitely stay there again!

“Loved the Inn on Bourbon!”

Ramada Plaza Hotel - Inn on Bourbon

5 of 5 stars
Oklahoma City, OK
Apr 7, 2008

What a wonderful place to stay in the French Quarter. We have family in New Orleans, but decided to experience the ambience of the French Quarter on this trip. The hotel was first class. They had a beautiful lobby and a breathtaking inner courtyard which included the pool area. We stayed on the fifth floor and while we did hear the music from Bourbon Street in the evenings, that's part of the ambience and it wasn't so overwhelming that we couldn't sleep. The beds were very comfortable and we had four pillows on each bed that were bigger and fluffier than the ones I have on my own bed! The towels were soft and housekeeping was extremely efficient.

I agree with other reviews and skip the hotel breakfast buffet and go to the Cafe Pontalba, just a few blocks away and opens right on to Jackson Square!

You can't beat the location and the accomodations were outstanding and a great value.
