Fodor's Review:
Located in the absolute center of the French Quarter, this Wyndham property has been exquisitely renovated. The lobby level exudes turn-of-the-20th-century New Orleans glamour, and includes the consistently outstanding Paillard's Restaurant. Guest rooms are spacious and well-appointed, but those that face the street are a bit hard on the ears, due to all of the nightly activity on Bourbon Street. Business travelers will appreciate ergonomic office chairs and in-room Wi-Fi. Lobby-level Snooks Bar features live jazz on Friday and Saturday, and Napoleon's Itch bar is great for late-night Bourbon Street fun.

Best location ever!
Posted by jancam from New York City on 10/1/08
My husband and I have stayed at the Bourbon Orleans at least 10 times for our frequent visits to New Orleans. You can't ask for a better location--in the middle of the French Quarter. Rooms can be either adequate or extremely spacious depending on what's available. Warning: insist on a courtyard room or you will NEVER be able to get to sleep. We were once "upgraded" to a suite overlooking Bourbon Street and had to ask to be moved at 2am when it was clear that the window shaking noise was not going to let up--and this was at an ordinary time of year, not Mardi Gras! Also, you should know that this property is no longer owned by Wyndham, so your Wyndham benefits will not longer be available at this hotel. I noticed that the last time I booked the rates were higher because of this. In the past we usually got a great AAA/AARP deal.
