Very close to the French quarter
Actual rates were much lower than On-line booking, very disappointing. Obviously a challenging place to work, but staff were very nice!

Give it a try, you will have good stories to tell
The staff at the Empress Hotel are very kind and helpful. The staff are the reason why we would stay there again. They had some great stories to tell us and made fresh coffee every morning. We also meet some pretty awsome people that were staying there as well and we had some great late night chats. The Empress is in a run down stat and needs a lot of work but it appears they are trying to fix it up. The room we stayed in was not great but it was a place to put our head. Our time at the Empress was good.

Awful
There is nothing positif in this hotel. The location, the rooms, bathrooms, towels, sheets, etc... In my room the air conditioning was maintained by tape as well as the toilet pipes. When I had a shower, no hot water and the tub fell appart such as I had pieces under my feet stuck to it. The bed... and don't even know where to start. No comfortable at all the sheets too small for the bed so you're sleepy my on a plastic mattress. Pillows too flat it's like you don't have one at all.

Should have slept in my truck!!!!
This place was absolutely disgusting. The bathtub was completely rusted and dirty. Every tile on the floor was cracked into at least seven pieces. There was a window unit that was duct taped to the wall. My husband killed The biggest cockroach that I have ever seen in my life. There were two holes in the wall in the bathroom. Holes! We slept with the bathroom door closed because we were scared an opposum, rat, or snake would come in. They locked the front doors at 11 o'clock, so that was a good thing. The duck taped window unit really put out, it was very cold in the room which was nice. But those are the absolute only things that I can say positive about this place. I am pretty sure they rented by the hour. I would never in my life go to this place again.
