New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center Review

Huge place. You walk what seems like miles from one end to the other. Easy to get lost.

Very nice large facility for convention space in downtown New Orleans. Lots of things to do and places to eat nearby. The food court inside was not so great. It did have a good Starbucks. Overall, it's a good location for a convention.

I loved the Zulu Ball....however this was thr second year in a row that the city's street are jacked up....causing a big problem getting into the venue. All dressed up and had to walk forever to get into the building

Great place during the Essence Festival.

They really transform the main floor into a great spectacle.

Was in town for a conference and the space is huge! The signage was good but they did not have enough people working to manage the escalators or crowd direction.

Excellent convention center, capable of hosting multiple large events at once. Wear good walking shoes, since the building is three very long stories.

The staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful.

I have been here several times. Great Venue. Close enough to everything that you can walk to Hotel or walk to Burbon Street. The facility is clean and the staff is professional.

It is great for conversations. It is huge for space.

HUGE! Multiple conferences and we did not overlap. Also they have an emergency response team onsite.

I Loved it .Kameron Banks and his mom had a blast ...Bama cheer wone 1st place in the competition!!!

Huge convention center.. Great venue for any size conference

Excellent place for the APNA Annual Conference! The music, the food and the comfy was amazing. I love NOLA

Loved the events that were held here for the Essence festival

Take good walking shoes. This center is huge, was walking 7-10 miles a day and our hotels was only 1 mile from the center.

MLG World Finals even held here was a blast. Great location with awesome restaurants close by.

I'll give New Orleans that this is a spacious, beautiful convention center. But the people staffing it can cause problems. I attended a conference here for an organization that, generally speaking, is full of forward-thinking individuals. We expect there to be easy-to-access non-gendered restrooms - and those were provided. But then convention center staff blocked those restrooms and would only allow certain people in.

Great location for a major convention and the amenities were well done.

The place is aged and dirty. The restrooms not kept tidy. Attended an convention that they knew how many people were attending and hundreds of people did not get fed lunch as they ran out. Huge disappointment. Never go back.

Nice enough but centre is very long and narrow which means lots of walking if you have sessions at both ends, food is bad and very expensive so plan on going elsewhere for lunch.

Fantastic conference space. Although the Starbucks line ......insane. I really appreciated the gender neutral bathrooms saving long lines between sessions of the conference. It's definitely big so wear your walking shoes. And the R rooms are hard to find.
The location to the French Quarter is walkable and the outlet shops next door keep you busy.

I guess it was nice when they built it. Now it looks old and not well taken care of. Moreover, the linear arrangement along the shore makes the different rooms to be very distant from one another. Very bad if you have 20k people (AGU 2017)

It ok. Road construction and the heat don't make it great

Great location, wish they would take sustainability more seriously

Oldish style, but overall a well-maintained convention center. Gender neutral bathrooms were cool. But what takes the rating down to three is the lack of food/coffee for early convention goers. Nothing is really open early (before first session). And afterwards, I waited over an hour for Starbucks. If you have a convention here, plan to eat and get your coffee elsewhere.

Huge convention center. Visited for the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority National Convention. It easily held thousands of Deltas

Visited New Orleans for Essence Festival 2018 and the Convention Center was the absolute place to be. See you next year..Same time same place.

Went to Christmas Fest. We ice skated, and rode the rides. Very fun!

I had the muffalotta and it was fabulous. The atmosphere was very casual and comfortable.

Very large convention center, so wear your walking shoes and wear layers. Chilly when in meetings but Work up a sweat getting to your meeting!

Meals were included in mine, food was served cold, and breakfast undercooked so not impressed. A large number of bathrooms so rare line for facilities that were kept clean.

Few chairs available in lobby area for as large as facility is if you need to make a call and access paperwork.

Countless water fountains did not work. One meal I asked if I could get a glass of water after drinking the one on the table and was told there is only hot water and was pointed to the coffee table. So pack a water bottle or two for the day!

This is a standard convention center in an easy-to-reach area of town.

Company convention was here and the facility was great. Loved how everything we needed was right there!

Went here for Microsoft WPC 2009, it's MASSIVE, AND I loved the whole endeavour. Being trumpeted to a washroom break was extra cool. Crudites were very Cajun and super special. Attention to detail on blast. I GUARANTEE!

Large facility that had plenty of room for joint conventions, meetings, and vendors.
Restrooms spaced comfortably. Could walk from hotel areas comfortably in 10-15 min.

Such a nice place for the day festivities for Essence Festival.

The conve tio. Center is very large and beautiful location.

The Convention Center accommodated our group quite well and helped us to feel safe and comfortable even in the midst of uncertainty. The staff was friendly and amenable. Look forward to coming back when the construction is completed.

Huge place with good food. A bit overpriced food but nice staff.

I went for essence festival as my family do every year it was fun but it's always crowded if u go wear very comfortable shoes

Very nice. The people working with our convention were great.

Good services and people. Went to ATSSA traffic Expo 2020

Very beautiful place and ppl. CCT The One Champion!

Big center. Nice for both big rooms and breakouts, easy for bus service. Staff was all very friendly

Its a great place for events but the bathrooms are outdated and dirty

Nice for large conventions and congresses, friendly staff and also a lot of nice lunch possibilities around the corner, the only minus, it is so huge, you can walk for kilometers through the building.

Finish the construction that had plagued the convention center for 2 years and is worse every few months. So unprofessional and inconvenient it makes me want to avoid any and all conventions in New Orleans.

Disorganized design. Walked across this place there times at least.finding the current entrance and line to stand
