Hilton New Orleans Riverside

Guests are in agreement that the best part of the Hilton New Orleans Riverside is its location. This Hilton sits right along the Mississippi River and is sandwiched between the Lower Garden District and the French Quarter, the latter of which lies less than a mile north of the hotel. But leisure travelers aren't the only ones that benefit from the hotel's address. Business travelers appreciate the incredibly short commute to the New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center, which is just a few blocks away from the property. Accommodations, on the other hand, didn't receive as much praise, with some lodgers saying the rooms could use an update. Rooms feature flat-screen TVs, minifriges, coffee and tea making facilities as well as Wi-Fi access (free for Honors members). On-site, guests can take advantage of the basketball, racquetball, squash and tennis facilities in addition to a fitness room and a rooftop pool. Dining is also abundant, with six eatery and bar options at the hotel. Though there are plenty of delectable restaurants within walking distance, travelers say the seafood at Drago's is not to be missed.
