Sheraton New Orleans Hotel

The Sheraton New Orleans Hotel is a large convention-style property at 500 Canal Street, on the border between the Central Business District and the French Quarter in Louisiana. Its position on the city's main boulevard places the Canal Street streetcar at the door, and Bourbon Street, the French Quarter, and the Mississippi riverfront are all within a short walk. The Aquarium of the Americas and the riverside promenade are about ten minutes away on foot. As one of the larger hotels in the city, the Sheraton offers a broad range of rooms, including king and double queen rooms and suites, with typical rates from about US$170 to US$400 per night, placing it in the mid-range segment. Amenities listed include a pool, a restaurant, a fitness center, and a business center, along with meeting space that makes it a common choice for conferences. The tower architecture is functional and modern rather than historic, which gives travelers larger rooms, reliable elevators, and views of the city from higher floors. Dining on site covers breakfast and dinner, and the location puts countless Creole and Cajun restaurants within a few blocks. Service is that of a large branded hotel: efficient check-in, a concierge desk, and staff used to groups. The property is well suited to business travelers, conference attendees, and families who prefer a predictable, full-service base with a pool close to the French Quarter. Travelers looking for intimate boutique atmosphere or period architecture may prefer one of the smaller historic hotels deeper in the Quarter. Street-level noise on Canal Street can reach lower floors, so a higher room is advisable.
