Blake Hotel New Orleans, BW Signature Collection

Checked in an hour ago. Our room is huge and clean. Their fitness center is great. The front desk was extremely welcoming and attentive. Location is great as well.

I have a great time, Rooms are clean and location worked perfectly for me. The best is the staff everybody is friendly and kind. Yarri and Mignon are exceptional they run the extra mile giving service. Thank you so much!!! I’ll be back

I wanted to give a review to answer a lot of questions that I had before my stay. We stayed during Mardi Gras 2026, we came in on Thursday and stayed until Sunday. Check in was busy but fast, I was greeted with a smile and attentiveness and professionalism. I was charged a 100 incidental deposit AND 80.00 for two arm bands JUST so we could get into our hotel room during the parades ( I though this was outlandish) Room: I had a 2 bed Queen Corner room with view. The room was huge we had alot of space to move around, although the room was NOT cleaned well before we got there. We found condoms and used lubrication in the drawer between the beds, a dirty washcloth hanging on the shower rod and used soap in the bathtub, I informer the front desk and I told them we had already unpacked and I was ok with not moving rooms just have someone please come and dispose of these items and they did. Also I want to add myself and my kids walked around all weekend barefooted ( don't judge I forgot our house shoes) in the room and NOT ONCE did our feet turn , what I call hotel room black. We had unlimited HOT water, the TV worked fine but the coffee pot and the microwave had ISSUES they need to be updated. We also used the mini fridge and it also worked fine. I do want to note here that the beds were HARD as a brick and the only blankets that were on the bed was 2 sheets and what I called a "waffle' blanket nothing thick. Also want to mention there are two elevators and they are slow, one wasn't working after a parade one night and really jammed things up, but the staff was soo amazing at trying to help people with what they could. There is a TINY restaurant located inside the hotel also accessible from the outside staff was friendly but I have had better food and drinks elsewhere. Location: Location was GREAT especially for MG. The parade is LITERALLY outside the front door, however its blocked by the "balcony" seating that is owned by The Blake hotel and NOT included with your room, its 56.00 and up for seating in those bleachers. However you can sit across the street for about 20.00 a person or stand in between for free ( which is what we done because we could get closer to the floats ( haha). The streetcar stop is across the street ( but keep in mind it will not be running during MG). We had a 4 block ( easy, straight) walk to Burbon/Canal street. Parking There is a parking deck right behind the hotel that is accessible day or night and its self serve pay to park and its about 60.00 a day but free on parade day. Its a secure deck with security. Overview Would I stay here again? Yes, especially if I had my kids with me again. What Blake Could/Should Change and what you need to be aware of 1. Beds are hard and the electronics in the room need a DESPREATE update. 2. Include Balcony seating with room ( or at least a discount) 3. Thicker blankets in the room. 4. Stop charging me EXTRA to get to my room during a MG parade!! That's is all. I hope this helps.

The female front desk worker overnight was amazing! She made the experience very welcoming and was knowledgeable regarding all the questions I had about valet parking and finding good spots for the parades. It was a good location as the main parades came right by the hotel and it is within 10-20 min walking distance to canal st and French quarter. The rooms were clean and house keeping cleaned my room while staying 3 nights. I would highly recommend next time.

My stay at this hotel was great the staff is very friendly specially CHARISSA the house keeper. Very nice lady. My room was sparkling clean.

Quite a surprise for a Best Western Priemer hotel. Taylor made getting a last minute room easy. Valet parking is $50.00 Dollars Extra, but the Valet service was good. But if you use a parking lot/garage it's higher and you have to walk to and from the hotel. Room was very nice and clean. Room 310 had a view of St. Charles avenue and the passing Street Cars. NO free breakfast comes with this hotel, but connected to the hotel is "Cafe on the Square". A Great Breakfast , Lunch and Dinner restaurant, with good service. We stayed one night and ate there twice. Really Good food for $10-20 a person. The cafe has bright Sunny Windows that overlook St.Charles Ave and Lafayette Square for wonderful people watching and street cars passing by. Its a little noisy at this location during the day with traffic, street cars and sirens every now and then. But at night very quiet in your room.

Have been staying at the Blake Hotel for 5 years now!!! This is a great place to stay!! Great location an the BEST an most friendly staff. Always accommodating. Family atmosphere.

While the hotel is older, the room we had was clean. The bathroom is small, but the room was bigger. It was a trade off I would do again. Great location on the St. Charles streetcar line and convenient to Canal Street and other areas.
