We had a wonderful stay at the Brown Hotel. Front desk staff was very friendly and helpful. Great experience at the restaurant. The server was excellent and the Hot Brown awesome. The property is older and beautiful. The room was very spacious and appeared clean. Our problem occurred when the valet gave us the wrong key fob. He INSISTED it was correct and refused to make sure it was correct when we requested he do so. We were an hour down the road when we received a text saying we had indeed had the wrong fob. We were forced to turn around and return to the hotel. No phone call from the manager! No apologies from the valet ( he ran when he saw us). Meanwhile we are 2 delayed by 2 hours and 150 miles. They did say on by the way we won’t charge you for the valet parking. We reached out to the manager who was unavailable (shocker). I will not be back.

Had stied previously with work, Wanted a one day excursion from Toronto Canada and wanted to pamper myself in a great hotel, and have that Hot Brown Sandwich again. From time I arrived, the friendliness and knowledge of the staff from the From Valley to the Front Desk and later maid service everything matched my high expectations. ** Would DEFINATELY Return.

It was a beautifully designed hotel. Rooms nice and clean. Bed and pillows very comfortable. Staff were wonderful and very helpful. Unfortunately for me I did not redeem my drink vouchers. But it would be nice if it was per person per night.

We loved The Brown Hotel. The staff was top notch! The shuttle was a special perk. Several weddings going on during our stay and the staff was on their game. Our entire group was completely impressed with this hotel. Definitely would recommend.

The history of this property is so interesting and the lobby is stunning. There's a reason there are always dones of well-heeled people waiting for dinner here. And the staff are super polite, helpful and efficient. We love staying here.

Property itself is a lovely experience laced with history. Staff is all wonderful and very helpful. Expect to walk at least a mile to Bourbon row if you choose to go for that. A lot of homeless all around, but Thankfully they did not harass us. The area is getting a face lift and a lot of new places to visit!

Not luxury
The hotel is historic. The rooms are very dated and the beds are too small. We are a fit couple and a double bed is too small for two people. The food was ok, but overall, I wouldn’t stay here again.
