The St. James Hotel is a nice hotel. It's comfortable and we had no problems. If you can, get a room on the top floor... our room had a raised beam ceiling. It adds a lot of character to the room. On the ground floor, the St. James has one of the best restaurants in the city. Even if you... more

We're excited that you liked the St. James Hotel. You're right about the parking, all hotels in the city have them but you'll be glad to know that the St. James' valet rate is lower than most other hotels in the city.

Our stay was less than desired. The rooms do not look like what they advertise. the bathroooms are nothing more than your average Hoiday Inn bathroom. we even had to ask for toilet paper. You have to valet park your car or find a lot somehwhere, There is no parking for the hotel. That is an extra 25.00 per night.... more

We're sorry that you found the hotel to be less than satisfactory. Unfortunately, as with all hotels in all big cities, parking is hard to come by and yes, there is an additional charge for parking. The parking company manages those rates and you'll be glad to know the St. James Hotel has some of the least expensive valet parking...

My husband, son and I stayed two nights in this hotel while visiting my parents in New Orleans. When we checked in I was surprised to hear about the internet, phone and safe charge, but did not complain. It was not very expensive and I was in a good mood since I had just arrived in New Orleans. We unpacked... more

Having traveled fairly extensively, I can honestly say this was the worst hotel I have ever stayed at in the US or abroad. Booked the room months in advance. Arrived to be told that there was no non-smoking rooms available other than one with no window (no window in a hotel room?). We opted for the smoking room which should... more

I agree with a previous review, Hotwire inflated the star rating. I have only booked a 4 star hotel once before the St. James and Hotwire awarded me with the Westin. The Westin was a true 4 star, so I expected another true 4 star. However, this is not the case with the St. James. I do not think I... more

From the moment we arrived, Ann made the stay perfect! Great Location, Great Room! Feels like New Orleans! more

Apr 25, 2008

This is a really small hotel but with very clean room condition. I could even smell the new paint. The front desk person was nice and she knew me by the name. All the good things kind of stop here. Rooms are significantly smaller than comparable hotels with the same star ratings unless you get lucky and get upgraded. The... more

My laptop was stolen from my room during my stay. Management is "investigating", but I will never see my laptop again and was not offered any compensation for this fairly significant loss. Otherwise, the hotel is okay; it's what you might expect given the price. Our room was big, but the hotel doesn't have some amenities you might expect -... more

This was the second time we've enjoyed the atmosphere of this small and special hotel. It's perfectly located within 3 blocks or less of the two Hiltons, the W, the Marriott and the Sheraton -- offering a lower-cost accommodation alternative for meetings or conferences held in those much-larger hotels. The hotel does not serve breakfast, but Mothers Restaurant -- a... more

Be careful of staying in this hotel! During a recent stay a laptop computer was stolen from our locked room, most likely during hotel housekeeping. The hotel staff provided little consolation, and did not offer to compensate for the item that was stolen. This theft most likely could have been avoided if there was any effort at providing security in... more
