This is the best place to stay in New Orleans. Be sure to book a room with a view of the river, which is fabulous. I was there last week with my wife, and had a convention at the RitzCarlton. The room at the Ritz was expensive, small, and we could not sleep over the hum of the dehumidifier, so we moved to the Westin for the other three nights. That saved our trip. The room at the Westin was as spacious as a penthouse, and had a glorious view of the river. It was our anniversary, and I asked that a bottle of champaign be delivered to the room, expecting to be billed at least a hundred dollars. It came with chocolate covered strawberries. On checkout, I did not see it on the bill, and wanted to pay, since we had such a great experience. We were told that it was complimentary, because it had been our anniversary! I would never think of staying anywhere else.
