Featured Hotels near Fair Grounds Race Course & Slots, New Orleans

The location is ideal,stright line to the french quarter and all the hot spots( 10. to 12 minutes walk). The rooms are speacious and have simple modern layout. There is Nespersso coffee machine with complmentary coffee, very much appriciated. The bathroom is also specious and clean, over all a very pleasant 3 night stay, highly recomend it to anyone.

I loved the experience. It was right around the corner from everything (Bourbon St. Canal St. etc). Highly recommended.

Very friendly staff, someone there 24/7, great location close to the main streets of the French Quarter but at the same time just far enough away to be quiet at night. Loved my stay here!

- Location: Easy to access - Gym room: Very limited types of machines - The room: Just a room. - As an Asian, I can say there’re some cultural differences between US hotels and Asian hotels. Americans might find the hotel great while Asians might not.

This was a stop over as our train stopped for the night in New Orleans and was to leave out in the morning. We arrived very late as our train had been delayed and staff was very helpful in getting us checked in. The room was quite comfortable. It had a refrigerator but no microwave which we would have greatly appreciated. We had to be up early to catch our train and we were unable to have a hot breakfast due to the lack of the microwave. Other than that, everything was fine. Hope to come back when we can stay longer.

Thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the TownePlace Suites on Canal Street! All of the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. They went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed! Hotel was clean and well kept; rooms were spacious and beds were super comfortable! My only suggestion would be to stock up on food & snacks (in the awesome full-sized refrigerator!). Late at night there are not many places to walk to and there is no dining service in the hotel (though there is a well-appointed convenience shop in the lobby). This hotel is in easy walking distance from the theater and the French Quarter/Bourbon Street. It is also only a few blocks from the convenient trolley! Thanks again for a really lovely stay. I hope to be back soon!

We really enjoyed a recent stay at this location - conveniently located downtown and within walking distance to several streetcar stops. The lobby is representative of NOLA and trendy. From the beginning, we were greeted by friendly staff and thanked for our Marriott status/loyalty. The rooms were clean and comfortable. My only ”compliant” is that they are too trendy - there is not enough counter space in the bathroom when it's clearly large enough to have a large vanity and countertop. The bathroom amenities were very nice: lavender & eucalyptus. The room was equipped with a Kureig, refrigerator and microwave. The beds were very comfortable and we had a great view of the downtown area. The feather pillows were terrible. I honestly don't know why hotels continue to use these pillows that look great and immediately deflate as soon as you lay your head down. We had one small issue with the TV which was quickly remedied. We did not have enough towels/pillows which was also quickly remedied. The breakfast is really good and had healthy options (egg white quiche) as well as indulgent (waffles and muffins). Although there is a parking lot directly next to the hotel, with a large sign that reads: Hotel Guests $10, self-parking requires you to park across the street and down one block (in an unsecured lot). This is very confusing and I wouldn't have minded so much if the lot was secured, but there are a lot of pedestrians and homeless in the area, so it's a pain if you have to return to your vehicle.

I was racially profiled at this hotel. I was accused of stealing. The clerk(white lady) said she saw me put a honey bun in my shirt! I had to expose myself in front of everyone to prove my innocence! The clerk just shrug her shoulders like oh well, it looked like you put something in your shirt! Then the lady refuses to check me out!!!!!! How humiliating and embarrassing! The distress is overwhelming!! Regardless of the comp nights given by the hotel manager, Chris, this issue is still unresolved! I have not been able to speak the the GM about this matter to date. The email I was given by the hotel manager for Beth Ables, have been undeliverable. I would not recommend staying at this hotel! I would not recommend this hotel!!!!! My stay was August 26-28, 2022. French Quarters Sheraton.
