Concierge.com's insider take:
Located in a Canal Street landmark—the venerable Maison Blanche department store—the Ritz brings its chain-wide style of formal luxury to the outer edge of the French Quarter. Ritz regulars will recognize both the aesthetic (hardwood floors, Oriental rugs, gilt-framed artwork) and the attention to detail (an umbrella in the closet, a necessity for this subtropical city). Ornate armoires replace the usual chest of drawers and hide the flat-screen TV. Downy duvets and mountains of decorative pillows cover luxurious, extra-thick mattresses. Marble-clad bathrooms in the Club-level rooms come stocked with Bulgari toiletries, powerful rainfall showerheads, and deep soaking tubs. Non-couples who would normally end up sharing a standard "double double" room—two double beds—will appreciate the "double king" option, a spacious layout that's just shy of a suite (in terms of price and size) but offers plenty of room for work and lounging. The on-site restaurants provide plenty of live music and swanky ambiance—legendary trumpet player Jeremy Davenport serenades diners indulging in haute Cajun fare at Mélange. Disappointingly, the Library Lounge has been converted to a private cigar room adjacent to the lobby level's open atrium. Guests can pay $20 to gain entrance.
