Solo traveler, wonderful experience. Everything was great from parking, check in, check out. There is street parking for way cheaper. My toilet stopped working but the front desk quickly accommodated me for the inconvenience. The staff was polite and professional. Quiet hotel, I would definitely stay again.

The Kimpton was very nice, great hospitality, the coffee shop has great latte’s. The peacock restaurant was close during our stay for Mardi Gras. The parade was beautiful and conveniently came right in front of the hotel.
