Le Meridien New Orleans

New Orleans, Louisiana

Virgin rating

The hotel

Deep in downtown, Le Méridien New Orleans presents The Big Easy in all its glitzy glory. After a mega-million dollar refit, it mixes the city’s refined style and sense of fun, with pops of yellow and blue, music-inspired accessories, and reflections of New Orleans in its photography. Location’s key of course – it’s just 100 metres from Bourbon Street and Harrah’s Casino, and 300 metres from the French Quarter. And they’ve teamed up with The Sweat Social to bring you running tours, Priority Bicycles to offer bike hire, and three incredible art museums to give you complimentary entry. Returning to base, you can swim in the rooftop pool, dine on Deep South inspired dishes at LMNO, and take time out in The Hub – a café-come-bar with complimentary WiFi, a New American menu, and an evening aperitif hour featuring sparkling cocktails.

Staff at the hotel are cordial and respectful. Brandon helped us at the bar. He was friendly and conversational while taking care of several people at once. I would definitely recommend family and friends to stay at this property based on the way Brandon and every other staff person I dealt with treated me.

Brandon at the bar was so amazing! He was quick and efficient! We are there with a group for a work conference and he was there each night. He ensured that each one of us was taken care of without missing a beat. He definitely made our experience worth it after being in conference all day! Thank you Brandon!

Brandon has had the best customer service I have experienced in New Orleans. I honestly would hire him for my store. He has worked the front desk, and the bar, and always has a smile on his face and a kind word for every guest. Thank you Brandon!!!
