Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests consistently praise the Drury Plaza Hotel New Orleans for its spacious and clean rooms, often highlighting the comfortable accommodations. The location is ideal for exploring the French Quarter and other major attractions, with many finding it an easy walk or a short trolley ride away. A standout feature appears to be the complimentary extras, including breakfast, evening snacks, and drinks; however, some guests have noted that the quality of the 'kick back' food may not suit all palates. Convenient on-site parking and a rooftop pool further contribute to a positive experience.

i found the location ideal. the french quarter and restaurants were easily accessible. even tour pick-up spots were nearby. the front desk employees were helpful and always pleasant. i reminded me of a vip in a luxury hotel .
the nightly kickback food was not great after one night. they must improve this offering because the dinner food stayed the same. the drinks, however, were a nice offering each night.

My room was spacious, it included two queen beds. The location allowed me to easily reach many shops and restaurants. Breakfast included many selections, happy hour also provided good options. Trolley service was just a few feet away.
The fridge froze everything i put inside. It made keeping drinks cold difficult.
