All I can say is WOW!! Loft 523 was amazing!! The rooms are extremely spacious with the most incredible bathrooms. I love taking baths so the extra large spoon tub was perfect. I can see why so many celebrities stay there being that it is a small hotel and even a little hidden with no sign out front. I truly... more

First and foremost the room and hotel was excellent! The room was very large and spacious and the bathroom was to die for! I never wanted to leave my room. The hotel staff was very helpful and everyone was so very nice. Like someone posted earlier Loft 523 has a sister property literally 2 blocks away called International House Hotel.... more

I stayed at Loft 523 for the first time on March 2nd. It was a great stay. The room was spacious and the bath tub was great. Actually, the tub was my favorite spot because it was spoon shaped and you can just lay back. The room had a flat screen TV and surround sound. The hotel is a small... more

I just wanted to comment on some of the hotel updates...although my friends and I were not able to stay over night at this hotel our time their was not that bad. We were able to check-in our hotel and get a room (the wrong room! our penthouse suite was being renovated due to plumbing problems so we were moved... more

I must say, before I went to this hotel I thought some of the reviews were a bit harsh and fully expected I'd have a wonderful experience. I have to say now, most of the reviews are right on. The good: The rooms were generally good. Super comfy beds and well appointed furniture. We started off in a larger Superior... more

BTS (before the storm), we lived in NOLA for 6 years and have now replanted in Baton Rouge. We LOVE NOLA and every time we have an excuse to go down for a few days, we splurge: stay at a different hotel and eat at a new restaurant each time (with some old stand-bys too!)...WE USUALLY LOOK FOR THE BEST... more

While the hotel has nice rooms, the service was poor. My toliet did not work for 2 of my 3 night stay; the room was never clean; the balcony was dirty when I checked in and remained that way for the entire stay; and the soaps, etc were never replaced. Although I never complained, the hotel wanted to charge me... more

Without going into exceptional details, the good is the room was exceptional and the staff friendly, but not very useful. The bad goes from continuing details of no light bulbs, burnt out light bulbs, lukewarm water, no access to conveniences (they just are not ready to be open) to the major item of the Music from the bar until 3:00... more

First of all, Loft 523 is on a non-descript block, with no signage or address. So be sure you know where you are going. The room was large, modern and comfortable. Concrete floors, 12 foot ceiling, floor to ceiling windows, huge bathroom with walk-in open shower, surround sound stereo/CD/DVD. Bed and linens were comfortable. Downsides: our room was lousy for... more
