Guide Review - W New Orleans French Quarter
The little sister to the larger W hotel just a couple of blocks away in downtown New Orleans, the W French Quarter is on a busy stretch of Decatur Street in the French Quarter. This very central location is convenient to the shopping and restuarants of the French Quarter, and is just a block off the Mississippi River. Rooms are sparse and small but streamlined and hip, and decked out with CD players, high-speed Internet access and the famous "W Beds."
