R Royal Street Inn - New Orleans

Was simply rejected bar service because the person before me was a tip. First, why am I responsible for them? Secondly, they claimed they had tipped. What do you expect from me? Service: 1/5

Love this bar. It is a five bar with great cheap drinks and super friendly staff! Our friends loved it

This bar is a few blocks away from the craziness of bourbon street and seemed like more natives than tourists. In fact, I think my friends and I might have been the only tourists. It is a cool place with kitschy decor and a varied drink menu. My friend really enjoyed the Parish Sips beer. I tried a sip and it was a little tart and pretty delicious. My friend wanted to stop in since I believe they use the exterior for film shots in NCIS: New Orleans. Overall, it was a small bar but a nice break from the crowds of Bourbon Street.

Booked the Royal Suite as a New Year treat for ourself and a friend and it absolutely did not disappoint. Room is fantastic, spacious and well equipped. Full of touches like the sound system to hook up to and tables to sit or lounge around. The terrace is great to go out onto and watch the world go by, especially on the morning after the night before as the horse carriages pass by. Staff brilliant from beginning to end. But above all that, it's the location and the vibe. The bar is popular and buzzing, with a great selection of drinks. There was a DJ playing on a couple of nights, plus the well-stocked jukebox. It's a fantastic place to be, you can join in the fun downstairs or retire to the room above and be with your loved ones. You are a two minute wander from other places on Frenchmen, 5-10 from Bourbon St and 15 minutes walk from Jackson Square. Yes it can be a bit noisy but no more than you would expect being above a popular bar on a Saturday night.

This place was absolutely wonderful. What I'd like to touch on right away is the concerns that some have expressed regarding the noise. We were there during an extremely busy weekend, there were parties outside in the street, a football game showing in the bar downstairs, etc. Yet I still got some of the best sleep in my life. Certain measures have been taken in the bedroom to make it quite calming and to reduce the sound. The colors, lighting, mattress, pillows, etc just create this perfect ambient environment. Plus you have control of music that can play in the room, which was a really nice touch when we walked in and heard Jazz playing as soon as we open the door, but it really came in handy to play some soft piano music at night. Now of course you'll be able to hear the sounds when you are in other parts of the suite, but heck, it honestly just made the whole experience more fun. I was incredibly impressed with the staff as well, we live in Wisconsin and I thought that I had seen some pretty efficient bartenders, but the employees working during our stay or phenomenal. Fast, friendly. This was kind of a special trip for us, but if we have the opportunity to do this again, I definitely hope to stay here again
