Hotels near Southern University at New Orleans

"Overall nice, historical hotel. Rooms are smaller and bed was less comfy. Restaurant, bar and music were nice. Location is best. "

"We have stayed at fhe FMI for decades because I love the location, courtyard and general ambiance. This stay was inconvenient because of the location of the room which, if I am honest, I never was able to find on my own. The bathroom was very small and the shower doors were or a bizarre type that caused the room to be flooded before we could get to the shower head and readjust it to spray the wall only. The courtyard, while beautiful as always would have benefited by outdoor heaters as would the pool. All that said it is a beautiful property if you like historic and slightly spooky. "

"Water pressure so minimal it was just a trickle, unable to shower. Water needed to run for 20-30 min to get hot. "

"Awesome location and very friendly staff"

"The staff was excellent. The hotel is in a great location! Everything is walkable."

"Great staff, very clean, nice rooms and its perfect location to everything. The restaurant is very very slow. You will wait 20 minutes before you get a cup of water. Food is good but more workers are needed. "

"The service was great and wonderful "

"We stayed in the sea view villa. The bedding was very dirty. There were orange spots all over the sheets and blankets. When I informed the front office, they said housekeeping would come fix it. Housekeeping showed up a day later with new sheets that just as bad as the first ones. There was someone’s left over food in the fridge. "

"The concierge, Roxie McCovins is top shelf, very helpful and attentive to all our questions. She really does go above and beyond! Be ready for parking if you drive in, it is an extra $50+ a day to park in the hotel parking structure which to me seemed like they are milking the guests. No help from hotel just park and pay. Ok first to park in the hotel parking structure should be part of the hotel stay cost and not extra and second the parking payment should be included in the bill and not make you stand out in the parking lot downloading a QR code and paying the fee every day of the stay. No option we could find to pay all days at once just day by day so you have to remember to do that every day or they will boot your vehicle. A place as nice as the Westin should have a system that is better than this! The staff and rooms were all very good and what you would expect from them. The location is excellent and the shopping and view are great. Expedia might mention the parking thing above as when you are booking whatever you’re thinking is the cost if driving in it is $50+ more than the booking fee says. They also charge a post tax fee of $30 a day. So the final hotel bill is going to be around $100 a day more than the Expedia booking daily cost is. So overall very good place to stay but the management does nickel-and-dime you and seems like the exception is most will fly in so the drive in people are not enough to bother with. "
