Real Traveler reviews for Utah Museum of Natural History

More information on Utah Museum of Natural History

Pre-Katrina, Condé Nast Traveler voted the Windsor Court the Best Hotel in North America (and probably did it a disservice -- who, after all, could ever live up to such hype?). And post-? There likely is a finer hotel on the continent, but it can't be found in New Orleans. The unassuming, somewhat office-building exterior (which got a bit Katrina battered) is camouflage for the quiet but posh delights found within. There's a reason this remains the center of high New Orleans society, from traditional afternoon tea to fancy dinners before or after some significant society function. It's that kind of place. Two corridors downstairs are mini-galleries that display original 17th-, 18th-, and 19th-century art, and a plush reading area with an international newspaper rack is on the second floor. The restaurant offers some of the most ambitious dining in the city. Everything here is very, very traditionally chic and consequently just a little chilly. It's not too stiff for restless children, but still feels more like a grown-up hotel. The level of service is extraordinarily high; we doubt it could be much better were this Windsor Castle rather than Windsor Court.The accommodations are exceptionally spacious, with classy, not flashy, decor. Almost all are suites (either really big or downright huge) featuring large bay windows or a private balcony overlooking the river (get a river view if at all possible) or the city, a private foyer, a large living room, a bedroom with French doors, a large marble bathroom with particularly luxe amenities (plush robes, high-quality personal-care items, thick towels, a hamper, extra hair dryers), two dressing rooms, and a "petite kitchen." You aren't going to get better traditional hotel accommodations anywhere else in New Orleans. Facilities: The New Orleans Grill restaurant; Polo Club Lounge; health club w/resort-size pool, hot tub; concierge; 24-hr. suite service (much more than your average room service); in-room massage; laundry; dry cleaning Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice.
