Sheraton New Orleans Hotel

8/10 Good

"The view from the 23rd floor was breathtaking and the amenities more than satisfying. However, the elevator instruction plaque said; as easy as 1 2 3 , but nobody explained to me at check-in, that it had to be my floor number, not 123 😂😂😂 The bathtub tap dripped all night long and every flush upstairs, gave me a jolt! Very luxurious bed & Pillows, I would stay here again 🙏"

"The hotel is great and a perfect place to be in the action, but know you won’t get much sleep because of all the nightlife."
