Could not have been any better in celebrating our 30 th Wedding Anniversary! Eclectic pet welcoming property with a friendly and talented staff.

Wonderful with one small issue

We loved the vibe and location of the hotel. Very cool art pieces and my husband loved the frenchies everywhere. The second floor setup was a little odd, owing to the age of the building maybe. Unfortunately, our room, which was a beautiful corner spot, had a musty smell. Maintenance tried to clear it out but it came right back. It wasn’t enough to make the stay unbearable but I think the carpet needs replacing and the AC ventilation cleaned. The staff were nothing but helpful and kind. Despite the room issue, we had a fabulous time here. Talk to the art gallery curator and definitely spend some time at the rooftop bar and restaurant.

The staff were all friendly. They served coffee in the lobby every morning and champagne in the evening. They also left a little continental breakfast bag on you door each morning. We had a Queen room at the Enclave and, for the very high price, the room was extremely small.

Meh experience

Had issues with check in, ended up upgrading us to a room on the first floor which we didnt really like because with the windows open literally everyone can look in. The decor was artsy but kind of weird, all red and white. With the windows down for privacy, the room lacked lighting.

Based on a four day stay, highly recommend The Enclave, a quieter, friendlier sister property across the street from The Vendue. Feels like coming home each day. Great location within French Quarter—Easy walking to touristic points of interest, great dining options, and fun bars and lounges. Fantastic Property and Amenities—Comfortable rooms and public lounge areas; awesome artwork to enjoy; over-the-top amenities such as all-day Prosecco, morning goodies, afternoon goodies, and twice daily room cleaning/ towel changes; and incredible warm, friendly and caring staff. A big shout out to Sarah, Frank, Virginia, Jessica, and Harvey for making our stay at `The Enclave such fun.

Save your money and the disappointment!

Check in despite them "trying" to be trendy was not efficient; they couldn't find our reservation and it drastically delayed our check in. They had a private party going on steps away from where they have deskless check in so it was very loud and hard to hear. We ended up going across the street where my credit card machine was not working correctly and charged me 3 times for incidentals that I wasn't made aware of. When we finally got checked in, the women who helped us was kind and showed us to our room; funny though, she even noted the musty smell upon entering. Did nothing. VIP Status was not honored, room was not as described, and the Art Galleries that were part of the attraction to the hotel were not available. The walls are very thin and the after party I believe was actually happening in the halls; woke us up for about 2 hours in the middle of the night, again nothing was done and it also didn't help that construction started at 7:00am and there was no notice of this either. "Free Breakfast" was 2 mini croissants, 2 mini muffins, a banana and an apple that they leave in a sack lunch on your door. I've stayed in all levels of hotels; from a Motel 6 to the Four Season and for the cost of a night here; I wasn't expecting the Ritz, but I was expecting more than The Holiday Inn Perhaps because I was a last minute Hotels customer or because of the great location, they felt they didn't need to try, I don't know... but save your coins and pick somewhere else to stay!
