The hotel itself is an amazing property. On our first night the toilet was plugged up and wouldn't flush. The bath tub was slow to drain. After I reported it, the issue was resolved by the building engineer. The service at the Rib Room was horrible - we had to order our own drinks from the bar on three different occasions. It took staff quite a long time to bus tables and the bar was hardly busy. The bell staff was so friendly which was so appreciated. I did love the history of the hotel. The roof top pool was really beautiful with great views.

Really nice hotel with great service and food. First room had an inoperable faucet that required a change after we were settled in. On the last night, the rooftop bar was closed for a private event, which was a bad look especially because the main restaurant was closed. Great location for WWII Museum

Elevators were not working most of the week (mostly one out of three).we did not get informed regarding construction until we checked in. Inside our room a flashing light flashed brightly 24/7. Tons of room defects, sliding bathroom door was of it’s hinges, amenities not filled (soap etc). The staff were amazing and friendly and the hotel theme was great.

Beautiful decor, intoxicating fragrance being pumped in, arts/museum district and Magazine Street shopping so close by. Also pretty close to French Quarter and Insectarium/Aquarium though removed enough to avoid too much traffic. Ease of access. Helpful bellman - thank you, Chip. I also loved that we were on the 3rd floor near the gym. Adequate amenities in the gym. (However, there was no soap nor hand sanitizer in the dispensers. Kind of important in workout areas). View of the WWII Museum. Rooftop bar. Convenient coffee stand. Really, it's a beautiful hotel. Negatives - $45/night parking in the garage is ridiculous

This property is very nice. You have to pay for parking deck and restraunts on property but it is well worth the money. Rosie's on the roof was really good with a beautiful view of the city. We did the grab and go breakfast which was good and convenient. I would definitely recommend this property to others and if we are in this area in the future we would definitely stay here again.

A good hotel, 2 issues, 1) the ice in my floor (7th floor) did not work so I had to go to the 4th floor for ice. 2) the key or app either worked or didn’t work the whole weekend, either the key worked or the app worked, so it was a guessing game every time in the elevator, going into the room, coming back from inside, or using the gate to get my car out of the parking garage.

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel, but what truly stood out was the honesty and kindness of the staff. My husband accidentally left his wedding band in the room after we checked out, and thanks to the incredible housekeeping team and the manager, they found it and returned it to us. We are beyond grateful! Their integrity and care meant the world to us. Highly recommend this place—not only for the comfort but also for the people who make it truly special.

I loved everything about The Higgins. Every staff member I interacted with was friendly and helpful. Both rooms I stayed in were cleaned very well, were good sized, and comfortably outfitted. Beds are firm. Location was great- hotels in the Quarter are often too loud for me, but the Higgins was quiet while being close enough to easily access the Quarter. The WWII Museum is across the street and is a fantastic way to spend a day and the hotel is filled with interesting WWII memorabilia.

The condition of the room was unfortunate. There was a hole in the sheets, hair in the shower and the condition of the walls around the toilet was gross. One of the reasons I booked this place was because of the cool rooftop space. I was only there for a night and it was closed for a private event.

We had a decent stay. The property is real nice but it’s about 5 minutes from bourbon by car, or 15 minutes walking. Additionally, our room could have used some additional cleaning and our bed sheets weren’t changed when we requested it.

I would give this a 5 star except for the air handler in the room. It forces the air directly at the head of the bed. There is no way to alter the direction of the air. In addition the air comes out extremely cold and does not come on until the room is getting warm....a big deal at night...hot to frozen in a few minutes. It's a shame as otherwise this is a great facility. For me this is a game breaker....there are other choices in the area if being close to the WWII museum .

Aside from being a Hilton, it’s also the official WW2 Museum hotel, and filled with military photos, etc. The museum is directly across the street and with your ticket you can go in and out all day. Easy access to French Qtr, about a mile walk, nice restaurants, love the room, good TV selections, internet access, clean, nice shower, reading room off the elevator, if you’re so inclined. You’ll love the museum itself, but plan for at least a full day, perhaps 2. Well done and well worth it! So much of which to be proud as an American and it’s on display there. Again, French Qtr is not far, and there’s plenty to eat. If you’re a people watcher, you’re fascinated. There are boat rides nearby, and the Museum of the Southern Jewish Experience just up the street. I had not planned to see anything but the museum, I was not disappointed other than I had no idea how big it was and how much time was needed to fully enjoy it all. But a I’ll be back to do more of it and spend more time than a single day there and enjoy some of the other delights of Crescent City.

Our room was not cleaned during an entire day after calling guest services that morning and specifically requesting it. The view was pretty. The food was good (3.5/5) The staff who were onsite were very nice, but the hotel is very much under-staffed.

On-site dining, especially Rosie’s rooftop, earns praise for views, drinks, and generally good food; grab-and-go breakfast is convenient. Prices can be high, hours limited at times, private events can close venues, and service quality is inconsistent.

Hotel was great but food was so-so. You’re better off sampling the amazing cafes and restaurants nearby. Some notable standouts were April at Rosie’s and James the concierge. There was another Hispanic gentleman at Rosie’s that was also phenomenal but I didn’t catch his name. The Normadie staff seemed to be disappointed when you showed up for breakfast but very happy when you left. We ate there once because of the food quality and staff attitudes. You have to be careful if you have food allergies as the staff doesn’t seem to know what to do to assist you in finding something to eat that won’t cause a reaction. April was the notable exception…she was on it! Overall very nice place that needs restaurant work.
