This hotel is very close to the French Quarter and Harrahs but I don't really think it's all that.The price is right ,and I only know a few hotels that are nicer for that price.But during the summer months some very nice hotels run the hot summer nights specials, for around $100.All these people writing these great reviews ,I don't think tried the number 2 and 3 hotels on the tripadvisor list.They are nicer..in my opion.Don't get me wrong this hotel is o.k.,and it's a pretty good location.

The reviews on TripAdvisor are right on the money - the Country Inn is a lovely, charming, perfectly-located gem. My friend and I felt like we got an excellent deal.

The high ceilings, great bedding, modern amenities, cute courtyard pool, and friendly staff make you feel like you're in a luxe, boutique hotel.

A note about the friendly staff: the airline lost my luggage and the staff sent up toiletries to make my stay more comfortable. It was a really nice touch.

A big thanks to all the TripAdvisor reviewers out there who gave the "thumbs up" to Country Inn. I don't think we would have found this place without you. Now I know where I'm staying the next time I'm in NOLA.

What can I say - I think this place is amazing! In my opinion, New Orleans is an absolute must-see, and this hotel is the place to stay while you're seeing it. It really is just a five minute (safe!) walk to all the action in the French Quarter, which means it's also just far away enough to get a good night's sleep (don't know how anyone gets any sleep in those hotels on Bourbon Street!). I've stayed in loads of big chain-type hotels, and this one beats them all.
1) This hotel is FANTASTIC value for money (it cost us about 40GPB for a double room per night - not each, but for the room!)
2) Breakfast is included!
3) The outdoor pool is small, but was never busy when we were there (had it to ourselves most of the time we used it) and is heated! Great for a dip after sightseeing to refresh you before your night out!
4) Our room was not like the bog-standard rooms that adorn most chain-type hotels - it had character, with exposed brickwork and unique furnishings. The bed was the most comfortable I had stayed in for a long time!
5) The fitness room was good.
6) Free cookies - nice touch!
Overall, an excellent place to stay!

We were staying in New Orleans for Xmas and so therefore put considerable effort into ensuring a decent property for our three night stay. We decided on the Country Inn and Suites after much deliberation and in hindsight we made a fabulous choice. The reception staff were extremely helpful (although the fresh coookies disappeared quickly). The suite we stayed in fronted the street, was extremely large and had so many channels on the TV we couldn't sample them all. The decor and atmosphere within the hotel were unique and the exposed beams added to this. Breakfast was excellent (loved the cook your own waffles). Our only negative was that the bar was closed for a full week over Xmas but we didn't have to walk to far to find somewhere to drink. No restaurant in the hotel but plenty close by so this is not an issue. We went to the Excellent Cafe Adelaide at Loews for Christmas lunch and this was barely a 5 minute walk. For the price the one bedroom suites are great value and in our six week trip were easily the largest rooms we stayed in. We needed to send some things back to Australia and the maid was very helpful when we made the unusual request for a box. She appeared minutes later with a box from the kitchen. We loved out stay here and walked to the French quarter each night. Harrahs is also staggering distance away which was handy. We would love to stay here again.
