roosevelt hotel new orleans
room 10529 (june 2024)
A Rollercoaster of Refinement and Regret
Final Verdict
The StayIQ score of 74% sums it up: the Roosevelt Hotel provides some delightful highs—primarily when you're in bed or the bathroom—but the rest of the stay leaves a lot to be desired. If you're looking for a perfect night's sleep and a powerful shower, this is your room. But if you expect anything more, you might want to lower your expectations, along with your luggage.
A Rollercoaster of Refinement and Regret
The Bed: A Cloud of Comfort
When it comes to the bed, Room 10529 at The Roosevelt Hotel delivers a heavenly sanctuary. With pristine linens, a mattress fit for royalty, and pillows that seem to cradle your every thought, this bed easily scores a perfect 100%. If sleep were a sport, this bed would have you winning gold.
The Room: A Mixed Bag of Basics
Unfortunately, the room itself feels like it’s suffering from an identity crisis. The cleanliness is commendable (80%), but the layout feels like it was designed during a caffeine-deprived brainstorm (60%). And while the HVAC system works like a dream, keeping the room perfectly chilled, the same can’t be said for the workspace, minibar, and noise levels, which all hover at an unimpressive 40% or lower. The view, a rather disappointing 20%, seems to have been borrowed from a broom closet.
The Bath: A Splash of Satisfaction
Here, Room 10529 redeems itself. With water pressure and temperature both peaking at 100%, you’ll feel like you’re bathing under a luxury waterfall. The towels are fluffy enough to make you momentarily forget the room’s flaws, and overall bathroom cleanliness sits at a solid 80%. For those who find comfort in a great shower, this bathroom is a hidden gem.
The Hotel: Hit or Miss
The Roosevelt Hotel itself offers moments of grandeur and moments of "meh." The lobby impresses with its elegance (80%), but the service feels more indifferent than welcoming, scoring a 40%. The fitness center, bar, and restaurant are all passable at best, and the WiFi connection feels like it’s still on dial-up (20%). Location and style don’t quite match the hotel’s historical charm, sitting at an average 60%.
