Standouts: When we came back on the afternoon of day 2, we had full housekeeping, as mentioned above. I would assume so? Ample local food off premises anyhow, which wife wanted to try all of, so no harm done missing out on Couvant. I did snap some pictures of the sparse in-room menu, and I'm not sure whether there is more than that available in the restaurant. Stayed out late both nights (Paul Simon concert was excellent on Wednesday) and overslept breakfast. I was mostly just curious because I'm a huge Ancho Reyes fan (it's my go-to at Centurion PHL) but I felt like I was speaking Martian or something.įood: Didn't get to try it. But it was like everyone here (except the manager who seemed like a stellar GM) had that sort of oddity. Her: Oh, yeah, I think this is the only ancho liqueur there is. Me: Um, yeah, but I was just wondering how that gets into this drink? Like, are you using actual chili peppers? Or one of those bottles up there? Like that! There it is! Me: So, what provides the ancho in the Green Ghost, is it a liqueuer like ancho reyes? A quick example, when I noticed that that 'Green Ghost' cocktail had 'ancho' in it, and I was curious whether it was made with an ancho pepper liqueur like Ancho Reyes or instead with actual peppers: It was also immaterial, because we ended up returning to what appeared to be a very well done full housekeeping job.) We stopped by the bar and met some of the other guests (Australians), and the bartender was ostensibly friendly but then didn't do very well at ordinary conversation. and was told 'okay, but just so you know housekeeping is going to be light because we're short staffed today.' (This was surprising, since the storm was going to hit the night before if at all, and it missed entirely. I called for housekeeping on day 2 around 1 p.m. Interactions with staff were just a little weird, like with the check-in agent not really saying anything to welcome us (I'm not even sure he said anything at all before the phone call). Wife liked the high-end hair dryer and the CO Bigelow amenities.

The bed is great, the bathroom has good fixtures (though water pressure could be better) and cold A/C. There is also tons of seating area, both in the bar area and in an adjacent indoor living room type area, as well as in the large multi-room outdoor courtyard with fans and furniture. Voss water was complimentary in the room (two 11-ounce plastic bottles) and more were brought to our room upon request without charge (we probably consumed a total of 8 bottles). Oddly, the check-in agent didn't say anything about Globalist benefits, breakfast, check-out time, water, etc. The suite only goes for $50/night more than a base room, and I'd recommend booking it given the apparent small size of the base rooms and given the nice bright view you get from the window of the bedroom.

Occupancy was very low, both because it was low season midweek and because of the possible weather, but the property confirmed the upgrade at booking before the weather was a known factor, which was nice. This was a complimentary upgrade granted in response to Cityguy1's request. The agent then gave me our keys to room 404, a Magazine View King suite. The GM then came down, introduced himself, chatted with us for a few minutes, and gave his card. We didn't have much luggage, so it was not a big deal to bring our own bags in.Ĭheck-in: The agent tapped a bit and then picked up the phone to call the manager, mentioned it was a Globalist, said my name, then hung up and said to me that the manager would be right down. Admittedly, there was risk of a tropical storm coming through on Tuesday (it missed), so a number of restaurants were on thinner staff or closing early. Someone came to the desk within a minute of our arrival, but it was strange to find no one there at first. to find an unmanned valet stand, no one at the door, and, for the moment, no one inside. We ate at both (soft shell crabs were excellent at Bon Ton, oysters were great at Creole House) as well as at Toula's (duck and andouille gumbo) and Oceana Grill (try the seafood gumbo, red beans and rice, and alligator bites).Īrrival: We ubered from the airport and pulled up at around 3:30 p.m. Location: The hotel is a very short walk from the French Quarter and is well-situated between the Bon Ton Cafe (to the south) and the Creole House (to the north) on Magazine Street.

The rate included breakfast and a $50 credit (per stay), which we spent at the bar on four cocktails (~$10-12 each plus tax and tip). I booked a $125/night Prive rate using Cityguy1 here on FT. The previous thread apparently disappeared so I'm starting a new one. I had a two-night stay at the Eliza Jane this week and thought I'd post a review.
