My stay at Voco St James Hotel was marked by excellent customer service, particularly from individuals like Bob and Donnie, who truly enhanced my experience. However, I did encounter several issues, such as the inconsistent hot water in my shower and a neglected maintenance problem with flickering lights. The hotel's character and charm were appealing, but there were definitely areas that need attention.

My stay had its ups and downs. The staff, especially Donnie P and Kentrell, were friendly and incredibly helpful. but the noise levels were disruptive, making it hard to get good sleep. The location was excellent for accessing nearby attractions, though the building felt a bit outdated and in need of repairs. Overall, there were nice moments, but I wouldn't rush to return.

I enjoyed my stay at Voco St James Hotel, impressed by the cleanliness and excellent customer service provided by staff like Bob and Jonquil, who were always ready with helpful suggestions. However, I found the breakfast options lacking and the nearby noises a bit too noticeable at times, which affected my overall experience. Despite these drawbacks, the hotel's central location made it easy to explore New Orleans, and I'd consider returning for the welcoming atmosphere.
