Loft 523 New Orleans - Новий Орлеан

OK, if I wanted to find things wrong with Loft523 I could mention the room keys that never work and require reprogramming at the front desk each time, or the surround sound stereo speakers in the room that weren't wired to anything, or the sound of other rooms surround sound late at night late at night. But those items are minor. The place has the great […] vibe of a small boutique loft hotel. The rooms are large, bright and airy, the king bed is very comfortable, large bathroom, etc. The neighborhood feels like SOHO but is only 2 blocks to Canal St and the French Quarters and 3-4 blocks to the river. Being located on the west side of Canal St. you are not in the middle of Tourista 101/Bourbon St. Everything thing is an easy 10-15 minute walk and walking back to the hotel is relaxing. We read in other reviews that the hotel is difficult to find. Well thankfully it has a very subtle facade, but is right next to the Omni hotel on a prominent side street. What's wrong with being hard to find, anyway? We'd definitely consider staying there again. Читати далі

Probably one of the slickest, trendiest Hotels in NOLA. Staff are wonderful; rooms are spectacular (minimalists concrete lofts with 12 foot vaulted ceilings and huge bathroom); Shower awesome; and Bed, comfy as can be. Why the low rating? BECAUSE IT IS SO NOISY OUSTSIDE THAT YOU CANNOT SLEEP. Unless you plan on being up all night until 5am, this is […] NOT the hotel for you. first there is a bar/lounge attached to the hotel, with a very loud DJ. then, because the club is so small people mill around outside until it closes (at 2am?), but wait there's more . . . across the street there is a 24 hours sports bar where the revelry continues until all hours in the a.m. Trust me I wanted to love this place and come back again and again, but until they put NEW windows that are more sound resistant, I will not. Not to beat a dead horse, but our room was actually on the 3rd floor AWAY from the bar and the sound still came through as if the windows were open. I pity those poor unfortunate souls who were stuck in the 2nd floor rooms above the club facing the street. might as well have rolled your bed into the bar at that point. Читати далі

I like the boutique aspect to the Loft. It was quaint and actually had very nicely appointed rooms. My room was very large with high ceilings. The decor was modern and I thought the bed was quite comfortable. Sadly, there were just too many issues with my stay to make it satisfactory. 1. The hotel was very hard to find. It was not clearly marked and […] my cab had to circle several times to find the location. 2. The auto lock to my room was broken and I had to attempt to enter 3 times before the hotel manager let me in. 3. The shower was really big and upscale, but the head was broken and it caused the entire bathroom to get wet. 4. MOST IMPORTANT - There is a nightclub downstairs that really gets going on Saturday nights. I was in NOLA for a conference and was working, so it was painful to hear techno music at 2am while I was trying to sleep. Читати далі

I absolutely loved Loft 523. It seems like so many hotels in this price range all look and feel exactly the same, but this one stands out. The minimalist, urban style is bright and airy, and the combination of materials and carefully chosen textures is truly luxe. You are definitely getting much more design style than in chain hotels! The service was […] top-notch; even though I encountered three different employees at the front desk each remembered me after just one encounter. Free wifi is great too! The location is fantastic, immediately off Camp just a couple of minutes walk to Canal Street and lots of restaurant options. Also just a block from Poydras and many big-name hotels and the Pan Am conference center. I was happy to see that Loft is on a small side street (one lane, one way), but still moments from the major artery roads and all they have to offer. Only downside, and this has been mentioned in other reviews, but Tuesday nights are noisy. The lounge, adjacent to the lobby, holds salsa classes and then transitions to a club a little later in the evening and doesn't settle down until about 2 am. I was on the fourth floor, so while I wasn't hearing the music through the building it was coming in through the (beautiful, large) windows. The hallway was quiet, so I imagine if you get a room that is not facing the street you should have peace and quiet. I was up working anyway so it really didn't bother me (I was grateful for the help staying awake!), but if you are concerned about being well-rested on Wednesday keep this in mind. I will definitely be staying at Loft 523 again the next time I am in town, and thank you hotels.com for getting me a great rate! Читати далі

Loft 523 is a fabulous hotel.

Room was spacious and clean!!! City of New Orleans was working on the street and woke me up at 7:00 AM!!! No bueno!!! Get a room not on Gravier Street!!

This was one of the more unique hotels I have stayed at. Quaint, quiet and modern, the room was awesome and the bathroom beyond compare. The location was convenient for all I needed to access (which was the convention center) and I felt safe in the neighborhood. My only complaint was that I had requested a wake-up call which I never received. I shared […] this with the person at the front desk who told me she did call and left a message. I shared that I would have never slept through the phone ringing and that there must be a problem with the phone. When I returned later that day she affirmed that there was a problem with the phone in my room. No apology or otherwise. I shared that I missed a session at the conference I was attending because of that and was essentially told, Oh Well. That being said, the hotel/room itself was terrific and I would not hesitate to return. Читати далі

Loved the size of the room. Nice high ceilings and tall windows. New York chic in NOLA. We were close enough to the quarter but far enough away to get a good night's sleep.

This is a boutique hotel. It has nice rooms (lhgh ceilings, big windows, nice king-size bed and a great bathroom with double shower). The only drawback to the hotel was the very loud and very noisy bar with wall shaking music that went on until 2am. If you're there for a vacation weekend and going out to the bars it is great but if you have an early […] morning meeting it is less than ideal. Читати далі

I feel that Loft was the perfect place to stay in NOLA. The rooms are very modern and very chic, which is just enough opposite from the rest of the city and most of the sites. i found that it was refreshing to go to my room, with very cool concrete floors and wide open spaces, which not always what you get a cookie cutter hotels. The service I received […] at the front desk was extremely helpful and they always knew the best places to eat, drink and hear great jazz. And the hotel bar was one of my favorite places as well. I drank some amazing drinks and meet great people as well. Best place i have stayed a few years! Читати далі

With a glowing report on this fabulous New Orleans stay-place, my fear is I'll never be able to get another reservation... with only 18 spacious rooms, the NO VACANCY will be a permanent sign. Wonderful unique design goes with warm service and it's nestled in hiding in the fun city. p.s. -- please don't improve the exterior signage... that way new […] people will NOT find the location.

This was a really cool hotel. The loft minimalist design was a refreshing change from the same old same old. Great space and windows. Loved that there wasn't any carpet in the room- felt cleaner in bare feet. Nice lighting. Minimal service in evidence, but the staff we encountered were very helpful in arranging for our needs. Great location. No bar […] after a late check-in, but using the one in the sister hotel on the corner worked fine. If we had stayed longer a pool would have been important. Would definitely stay again. Читати далі

Rooms are great but there is loud music until 2 in the morning on Tuesdays & the weekends! It is very disruptive to guests.

Upscale industrial - and I'll go back. There is much to recommend about Loft 523: location, value, room size, amenities, & audio system! My room (3a) was great. Far more interesting and comfortable than the overpriced convention hotels in the French Quarter and along the Waterfront (I was in NOLA for business) -- and far more engaging. Extra points […] for the two robes & slippers in the closet, and the pouches of Community Coffee next to the pot on the large counter in the large bathroom. My one (small) complaint is the absence of electrical outlets next to the desk: no place to plug in the phone or computer. Читати далі

Our room was amazing! Very modern and clean. The room, including the bathroom, was huge. Great location-two blocks away from Canal Street so everything was walkable yet far enough to get away from Bourbon Street at night. Only drawback was the lack of soundproofing in the room. You could hear your next door neighbors and anything above you with great […] clarity. Besides that, it was a great hotel and I would stay there again. Читати далі

Outside noise very loud in room - little insulation. Difficult to sleep even though on a fairly quiet street. Very sparsely decored.

What a place!! My husband and I loved our room. I believe it was 2D, we had our own patio. The bed was comfortable and the front desk was more than accomodating. The only complaint I have is the bldg is hard to find. The hotel doesn't have a clear sign and no valet outside. Other than that we LOVED it and will be back for sure!

Love this place! We were in the Rock You loft and we loved it! Huge and overall very clean. The only thing that wasn't to standard was the rug. It showed it's wear and tear. The hotel is very trendy and chic. The shower was beautiful and the water pressure was awesome with plenty of hot water! The bed is extremely comfortable. The staff was very pleasant. […] We enjoyed our stay and recommend it! Читати далі

The room was really nice and clean, and the location is awesome. That having been said, it was not at all sound proof. Our room was on the 2nd floor, and from 10pm until after 3am, it was as if our bed was on the club floor....NOT relaxing.

We had had good experiences with stays in other boutique hotels and the review on Loft 523 led us to believe it might be good also. We arrived and the desk clerk the first night was very friendly and knowledgeable. However, about 10 pm the party in the bar started in earnest and the entire building shook the music was so loud. The party the first night […] did not end until 5 am, although it ended at 3 am the next two nights. The room itself was worn out, with cigarette burns in the carpeting (supposed to be a non-smoking hotel), although the bathroom and the shower were very nice. We had breakfast room service all three mornings and they never did get the order right, the first time bringing us big glasses of milk instead of the coffee we wanted. I would not recommend this hotel unless you go to the party and need a room to crash in afterwards. Читати далі

we were in New Orleans for the Sugar Bowl. Loft 523 was a great location: not a noisy congested area, walking distance to both French Quarter and Superdome. No problems with the bar in the lobby. Very 'artsy' design and great style. Will definitely stay here again AND recommend to others. Thanks Loft 523.

523 Loft is a fun edgy small hotel in the heart of the New Orleans’ central business district. Modern furnishings are a nice foil for this old classic building. The rooms are spacious and have towering ceilings. The overall effect is very pleasant. This is a small hotel. Staff is minimal (one person at the front desk and housekeeping staff) but very […] helpful. Valet parking is shared with the sister property, International House, which is located around the block so it can take a few extra minutes to get your car. There is no restaurant on property but good eating options abound in the neighborhood. This hotel has one big problem, the bar on the first floor. On three nights out of our four night stay the bar was closed and not a problem. The forth night the bar was open and booming. This is a loud DJ driven spot with extremely loud music and penetrating bass. We could feel the bass blasting on the third floor. The music lasted until 3:00 am. We enjoyed most of our experience at 523 Loft but will probably not stay there again because of the bar noise. Читати далі

Nice boutique style hotel 1 block from canal Street in the French Quarter. Spacious rooms with upscale amenities and bathroom. Needs to have access to fitness facilities and feels like it needs a nighttime bar / lounge presence.

We were kind of leary staying here due to all the reviews about the noise level, especially on Holloween weekend, but we took a chance anyway. I am glad that we did. We stayed in one of the We Will Rock You rooms on the second floor, right above the bar. When we checked in, I asked the reservation clerk about the noise and he told me they changed the […] bass system to cut down the vibrations. The noise level was hardly noticeable. The room was one of the nicest I have stayed in while in New Orleans (my room was equiped with a surround sound system, 21 inch flat screen LCD, and duel shower heads in the shower..no bath though) and the location is central to everything. I would recommend this hotel to anyone. Читати далі

The hotel is beautiful and the staff is amazingly friendly and helpful. The club on the first floor is loud. Bring ear plugs or download a sound machine app if you are a light sleeper. I love this place-crazy, sexy, bad-a** cool!

Absolutely beautiful rooms, exceptional service, and great location. Club is loud. If you are a light sleeper beware. Crazy, sexy bad a** cool.

I had read reviews about this hotel, and was a little worried about the sound complaints. There's a lounge in the lobby, and we stayed in one of the "we will rock you" suites. Honestly, the sound was not that bad. Don't get me wrong, it's loud in the lobby (I had to almost yell over the music when we checked in late the first night). Our room however […] was pretty quiet. You could hear the soft beat of the music, but I was able to fall asleep no problem! I'm a light sleeper, so I brought ear plugs in case. The staff was super friendly, and we even got a $50 bar tab for staying in a "we will rock you" suite! My only complaint is parking. Parking cost almost double that of the rate listed online. For two nights I spent close to $100 just to park my car! Location is great and is within walking distance to everything. The decor is outstanding. Bathtub amazing! Читати далі

Love love love the hotel! Our room was on the 3rd floor but above the nightclub...so at night with the TV off we could literally hear conversations going on, but if you like leaving the tv on while asleep you dont hear a thing. Also, we received a free $50 bar credit which was great! The location was withing easy walking distance to Bourbon Street. […] Would deff. recommend! Oh and the bathtub was to die for! Читати далі

I absolutely loved my experience at this hotel. It's unlike any other place I've stayed in at this price range. The Euro-modern decor was a very welcome change of pace, and the amenities (Aveda soaps, beautiful tub and dual-head walk-in shower, surround sound system, CD's, free wifi), were all very welcome. The staff was very courteous as well. Some […] folks complain about noise from the bar/lounge below (it's really nice, by the way), but that only affects units that are directly above it. Mine was on the 4th floor and I didn't hear a thing. ... Pack earplugs if you want to be safe, but definitely don't pass up on this place. It's really great. This is a great hotel for singles or couples. Families might want to pass... Читати далі

Loft 523 is not all it's cracked up to be. Better to spend equivalent money on a more functional room. To sum up: dead roach in the room at check-in, moved to suite. The suite had lots of minor flaws (cracked tiles, dirty couch, missing towel rack) that could have been forgiven if not for the final evening. On that fateful day, the fire alarm began […] ringing at around 5 or 6 AM, and continued to ring approximately 4 times per hour until around 10 AM. Again, I could have forgiven this if the management had been a bit more proactive. After waiting for a resolution, I finally spoke to a manager who told me there was nothing she could do because the problem was related to a guest. Well, that didn't exactly inspire me to write a glowing review. All the manager had to do was offer to refund one night's stay, and I would have felt satisfied. Instead, well, here's my review.

We live just outside of New Orleans and have for many years when going for the weekend have been experimenting with the different hotels in and around the Quarter. I decided to try out this hotel for a 2 day stay around our anniversary. The room was very spacious, clean and comfortable. The front desk staff was very attentive and we left our luggage […] at the front desk while the room was being prepared. After returning a few hours later the staff had arranged for our luggage to be delivered to the room. The bar is loud (I was aware of that prior to booking), the city noises are present but the halls are quiet. Over all we enjoyed the stay. Читати далі

Noise is really my only complaint. The bar on the first floor was active until early morning (don't have a specific time). From my room on the third floor, facing Gravier (as does the entrance to the bar), I could hear most of the bar activity. As luck would have it, someone was doing some sort of street work in the early morning (~3:30-4am) all three […] nights I stayed there and that noise was sufficient to wake me. Читати далі

Great location to all attractions. Very friendly staff.

We truly enjoyed this hotel. So many outstanding traits! Just a block away from busy Canal Street this hotel is nestled in the middle of Gravier St. Perfect location to the Quarter yet easy to scoot uptown in no time. While the bar rocked downstairs our room was cozy and quiet. Everytime we walk in to our room it was like taking a deep breath and feeling […] totally relaxed! Читати далі

The rooms are spacious and comfortable with a modern decor. Its conveniently located just a block from the french quarter and a easy walk to everything in the CBD. The bar is trendy and attracts a attractive and hip crowd.

Loft 523 is a great hotel if you like SoHo minimalism. It's very cool warehouse style just south of the French Quarter. It's a great location if you want to stay out of the business of the Quarter but it's so convenient as you can walk 2 blocks and be in the Quarter. The staff is super nice and there is a hopping club on the main level so you can get […] a drink and be in the mix (with youngsters) and then head up to bed when you're done. However, we were on the 4th floor and couldn't hear the music at all. Читати далі

The Loft 523 is the coolest hotel in New Orleans. Minimalistic decor and local artistic flavor in the rooms meets SoHo style vibe; got to be seen to be experienced. Le Phare (bar attached to the lobby) is worth checking out as well. All good...
