Residence Inn New Orleans Near the French Quarter
Say I Do with a Balcony View
Holds ceremonies and receptions
Everything was so amazing! Leslie was there for us EVERY step of the way and bent over backwards for us even in the midst of a potential hurricane. The hotel is gorgeous and is in such a great location. I think the balcony was the perfect size for our small wedding. It is perfect for anyone looking to elope, have an intimate ceremony or needs a socially distanced option. The balcony with the city backdrop is the perfect setting for anyone looking for a unique New Orleans experience. The kitchenette (which let's be honest is bigger than some of my apartment kitchens 😛) and open plan livingroom were also perfect because it gave us the ability to have a small reception with our family before going to dinner. This was especially important for us because some of our family members did not feel comfortable going out to a restaurant due to COVID.
We booked a room block at this hotel for my wedding and my husband and I stayed the entire weekend in their deluxe suite. The staff was AMAZING!!! Tiffany and Wayne really went above and beyond to make our stay extra special. The rooms were also great. My mom stayed in a room with a balcony looking over St. Charles and we stayed in the Deluxe suite with a balcony as well and both rooms were simply to die for. The girls got ready in my room and there was enough room for all 14 people to get their hair and makeup done, room for 2 tables worth of food and no body was on top of each other. I cannot say enough great things about this hotel and our experience. I would recommend this hotel to everyone and if we ever want to do a stay-cation we will definitely be staying here. It is centrally located and within walking distance to pretty much everything.
