My stay was fantastic! Virgin Hotels New Orleans went above and beyond to ensure guests had a fabulous, unique experience during Taylor Swift weekend! Plus, the proximity to the Superdome made it easy to walk. Rooms, common areas, and the restaurant/bar were all clean and impeccably decorated. I would definitely stay again!

Check-in Time Not Guaranteed?
We were in town for the Eras tour and it was painful how under-prepared this hotel was. I hate to even leave a bad review because I am always a fan of Virgin when traveling and cannot recommend their airline & cruise line enough. This was my first stay at one of their hotels and while the property is clean and beautiful, our experience was so bad. My room was not ready by the 3pm check-in time. We ended up having to ask for our luggage and the front desk team offered for us to get ready for the concert in the public restroom. When we were leaving for the show at 6:15pm, we were told our room was finally available. We weren't even offered a comp drink or meal for the huge inconvenience. I think all of the non-hotel guests attending the Taylor Swift rooftop party were better cared for than the hotel guests. I will note that the staff at the lobby-level bar were wonderful.

Make sure to not get the rooms without daylight
Beware that there are a select number of rooms on every floor that do not have natural light, just a deep, narrow light well outside a window. No sense of time of day within these rooms. Another word of caution: a quarter of the seating on the rooftop requires payment, and because these sofas are so expensive ($250), they are mostly unoccupied. Which is frustrating when all the “free” seating is occupied. Elevator stopped 6” higher than the level of the floor and we had to push open the door manually. When we arrived for check in a staff member rushed in the front door ahead of us and did not hold open the door. Weird start. Lobby is too small and congested during check in and check out. We ended up going to the restaurants and bars of two hotels one block away instead of using the same facilities at the Virgin.

5-stars (-1 for a disrespectful front desk person)
We have stayed in many other hotels in New Orleans and the Virgin Hotel is now our new favorite. It was remarkably quiet on the hallway and in our room, despite being full due to a Taylor Swift concert. The property is so delightfully decorated and truly a mix of whimsical and modern. Great artwork, amazing lounges/bars. The shower and bed were fantastic and the room was impeccably clean. The only disappointment was the attitude of the front desk staff when calling for anything. We got an alert that our car alarm (parked for $55 valet per net) was going off - three times, yet when we called to ask them to look into it the person at the desk said "I don't have time for this". Speaking to the valet directly resolved the issue. We also placed another call to ask about the menu at the restaurant was put on hold for nearly 10 minutes, only to then be told they don't have openings that night. The positive was staff included a nice check-in experience (with Ryan) and the valet (Kahlil) was professional. The housecleaning staff and maintenance were both kind and responsive over our 2 day stay. We will definitely return, but would hope someone checks the attitude of their self-absorbed front-desk person who needs to remember what it is to work in the service industry (having done it myself many years ago).
