Hyatt Regency New Orleans
Everything was great; the only thing was the clogged sink. Took a little of our time away from the city. However, the staff was friendly and took care of the issue.

New Orleans Marriott
Room was clean and spacious. Also we had a beautiful view of the river. Hotel was busy the weekend we stayed because it was Halloween. But still enjoyed our trip!! Location of the Marriott was close to Bourbon St. and great restaurants.
