My Stay in New Orleans

My stay at the Blake Hotel was decent. For the most part, I have no complaints. The room was clean throughout the entire week and the beds were comfortable. The shower drain was not working for the first couple of nights which wasn't a huge issue, but slightly annoying. I think the main issue was the central air. I had the thermostat set at 68F on the heat setting which is what I am used to. However, I would be overly hot for the first few hours of sleeping and then be shivering for the last couple hours of sleeping. I am not sure what is the cause of this, but it was something I noticed right away.

Great location to stay in NOLA

The Blake Hotel was the ideal place for our two nights in NOLA - one night before and one after a Caribbean cruise. It is a 15 minute walk to the train station, a 20 minute walk to the cruise port, a 20 minute walk to the French Quarter and the streetcar stop was across the street. The hotel staff were excellent, friendly and helpful. The room and bathroom were large and clean. The carpets were a bit worn, but still clean. The bed was comfy. There are lots of restaurants and bars near the hotel, but not enough to make it a noisy area. We felt comfortable walking to and from the hotel. We'll stay here again on our next trip to New Orleans.

Staff excellent. Toilet was tricky to flush and desperately needs to be repainted and drywall in spots in the hotel room. There were water marks from old leaks and rust. But great location and reasonable price for the area.

This was a normally $100ish a night room. But during the Taylor Swift concert, I paid not only almost $800 a night, but was required to pay for a 2 night minimum. Not worth that money at all.

We stayed at the hotel for a business conference. It was good walking distance to bourbon street and the convention center. We had to ask a few times for help with our toilet as it would always jam. The bathroom was not very clean when we arrived. The hotel did the trick but we were looking forward to going home in our beds. As women, we were not always comfortable leaving the hotel alone.

Nice but old

Nice stay. They were very accomodating when we had to add another day due to the Jan 1st insident on Bourbon street and postponing the Sugar Bowl....however upon arrival we were missing a shower head. Bed was old and we rolled to the center. Very uncomfortable. Very old building and could use some updates.

I initially hesitated to write a negative review, considering the hotel's age. However, my experience compelled me to share my thoughts. I encountered several issues, including a lack of available towels, having to request soap, and even spotting a rat. Additionally, I witnessed an unpleasant argument between the staff and a young employee at the front desk regarding the towels. Overall, these problems significantly impacted my stay, and I cannot recommend this hotel to anyone. My experience was quite disappointing.

The best part about this hotel is the location and the employees. It is in a very great location, close to everything you will want to see. The staff is very nice and welcoming, and also very helpful. The rooms however are gross. The hotel really needs a full renovation. There was mold in the hallway, stains on the bed, hair in the tub, the walls are peeling, the ceiling was leaking, it has a bad smell. So much for the beautiful views of the city, because there is some kind of glue residue on the windows and blocking any and everything. I would never ever stay here again. So much for the beautiful views of the city, because there is some kind of glue residue on the windows and blocking any and everything. Water takes forever to get hot, the cable messes up badly, beds are extremely old and squeaky. I was charged an incident fee that I knew nothing about prior. Very odd for such a gross hotel. I’d literally checked out of the beautiful and clean Hilton that morning. I really expected more. As clean and beautiful as the Hilton was, there were no hidden fees.

Antiquated

For the price the hotel was decent. While we had a 10th floor room with what was supposed to be a “City View” we couldn’t see anything from the badly deteriorated film over the windows. The bed was mediocre, and room smelled stuffy and wasn’t clean. Had a kind of dingy look to it. Old and antiquated. It was however quiet for the most part, but I wouldn’t stay there again.
