stayed at this hotel in early march and had a truly great experience. cablecar stops directly outside the hotel and we had no problem with checking in before 12pm. rooms are very spacious and have a fully equiped kitchenette. large size gym and beauty spa on the ground floor together with a free laundry service available to all guests. some... more

Great hotel. My wife and I showed up at 11:30 PM for the BCS championship game. Our original hotel was oversold, and they contacted the Avenue Plaza. The staff was very nice. The room was nicely appointed, with a refrigerator, stove, and coffee pot. The bathroom was small, but everything worked; it was clean, and the bed was comfortable. We... more

This was my second stay here, once in 03 or 04 and now. There are changes after the hurricane. The resort was closed for a year or more and cleaned up. It is an older building, the rooms are very nice and large, but...the bathrooms are small and from the 1950's! It may be old, but was very clean and... more

The Avenue Plaza is a great place to rest your feet after a long day in NOLA. Only bummer is currently the St. Charles Streetcar is not running, so cab fare to and from the quarter is high. (The bus runs somewhat regularly and is a 1.25 each way). Rooms are very clean and staff is super helpful. My only... more

I have stayed at this hotel twice - once back in May of 2000, and most recently in March of 2005. I do not own a timeshare here, but the company with which we have a timeshares offers "getaways" here. The rooms are okay. The first time I had a single room, the second a 1 bedroom suite. It was... more

New Orleans reviews are always in the eyes of the the beholder. The city can be seen as a jewel, or some people see it as "old" or "dirty". The people who think New Orleans is dirty have that Depression era mentality that new is clean, and old is dirty. Well, the Avenue Plaza is not brand new, but it... more

I have stayed at the Avenue Plaza for several years because I bought a timeshare there in 1997. The comments about the walls-and-ceilings needing work were correct, but it didn't affect my enjoyment of New Orleans, in any way. Its location (Garden District) puts it in a charming and safe-looking part of town, but you do need to catch the... more

Stayed here for thanksgiving. We were supposed to have a non-smoking room but the room they gave us was clearly a smoking room. When we asked to change rooms, they gave us a lot of attitude and said things like, "well, its a non-smoking room and someone must have smoked in there". When I said that there was an ashtray... more

We stayed at the Avenue Plaza Hotel last March. We stayed in a one-bedroom suite which was sorely in need of some work. Paint was peeling, walls were scuffed, some lights worked, some didn't, the remote controls worked only sometimes. The bathroom was the worst, hardly any room to put cosmetics or anything else. The service here isn't fabulous. Several... more
