How the 80/100 is built, category by category — each one with the strongest thing travelers actually said, and the source it came from.
Bathroom
84- “The bathroom was compact but clean and functional with unique center split-half doors (did not close very tight but did not matter).” 10
Location
95- “Set on bustling Bourbon Street on the site of the former French Opera House, Four Points by Sheraton French Quarter is an upscale hotel with an almost unbeatable location.” 8
- “The best hotel for all around purposes is The Royal Sonesta. Why? It is centrally-located within walking distance of all the best attractions of the Quarter (superb restaurants, Bourbon Street "action", Jackson Square, Riverwalk, etc.).” 16
Room
79- “It had two full bathrooms, a dining room table with seating for four, a fake fireplace, etc. It wasn't just that the room itself was beautiful, but the service at the hotel was great, the entire property was spotless, etc.” 11
- “4th floor private balcony over Bourbon Street provides a perfect spot for watching the Easter parade.” 9
Service
83- “It had two full bathrooms, a dining room table with seating for four, a fake fireplace, etc. It wasn't just that the room itself was beautiful, but the service at the hotel was great, the entire property was spotless, etc.” 11
- “I regularly stay at the 4 Points in Perth and Brisbane Australia, pretty much the only chance I get to stay at SPG hotels. They are both really nice with great lobbies, bars and quality rooms.” 11

Quotes run exactly as travelers wrote them — spelling and all. We trim for length, never for tidiness.
- “When I arrived at the hotel late in the evening, I noticed the lobby smelled amazing. I asked the friendly associate about it, and he said it was "the Four Points signature scent."” 11
- “The concierge desk was empty most of the times we passed by, but the front counter folks were both warm and helpful with any questions about the city we had.” 10
- “It had two full bathrooms, a dining room table with seating for four, a fake fireplace, etc. It wasn't just that the room itself was beautiful, but the service at the hotel was great, the entire property was spotless, etc.” 11
- “I regularly stay at the 4 Points in Perth and Brisbane Australia, pretty much the only chance I get to stay at SPG hotels. They are both really nice with great lobbies, bars and quality rooms.” 11
- “Wall safe is nice to see for those who put faith in them.” 10
- “Children under 12 are not allowed here, and it is really a Boutique: no luxury amenities or 24hour room service so it really is closer to a B&B, however it has beautiful rooms and amazing beds (100% Egyptian cotton sheets for example) and a great Concierge.” 16
- “Best for weekend couples, less so for anyone relying on consistent room cleaning.” 9
- “The Four Points Sheraton at the Milwaukee airport is awful. During our 3 night stay we received no daily cleaning. If you needed clean towels you had to go to the front desk and request them.” 11
- “It had two full bathrooms, a dining room table with seating for four, a fake fireplace, etc. It wasn't just that the room itself was beautiful, but the service at the hotel was great, the entire property was spotless, etc.” 11
- “I recently stayed at the FourPoints in Lima/Peru. I also got a suite upgrade. Not as posh as the in Guangzhou, not two levels like in Lucky's OP, but also very nice.” 11
- “For a classic building, the room was compact but fine.” 10
- “Voucher was for Four point Sheraton, but it was like 8th floors of Motel 6 big AC in big window with rubber/plastic curtains facing the walk outside like a motel, newest item in room LG lcd, I could see coach passengers getting that hotel too so 30 min waiting to check in at 12 30 am with a food voucher 25 dollars but kitchen is closing 1 am” 11
- “4th floor private balcony over Bourbon Street provides a perfect spot for watching the Easter parade.” 9
- “Stayed at the four points in Cali Colombia. Was given a suite + a huge fruit welcome amenity and wine. I thought I was at a different brand. The room was massive.” 11
- “Brisbane is deceiving. It's lobby makes it look small and tacky but what you find in the rooms is ultra moden and certainly very impressive (and thats not even going to a suite either).” 11
- “Admittedly it's not furnished like a Four Seasons, but still, check out how gorgeous the room was. It had two full bathrooms, a dining room table with seating for four, a fake fireplace, etc.” 11
- “Not one of these hotels really stands head and shoulders above the others. They're all basically the same. The other difference is the Renaissance has the most stylish decor.” 11
- “Each of the well-appointed rooms has a balcony and a sitting area, and some feature a spacious interior.” 12
- “DW and I will be arriving in the AM, so hopefully will be able to snag a spot... We have stayed there twice and love the location.” 15
- “Also this hotel is super nice but that neighborhood is a little sketchy to say the least, unfortunately I think this hotel is the nicest place in the area!” 11
- “Located in the French (Vieux Carre) district of New Orleans close to trade fairs, the 4-star Four Points By Sheraton French Quarter hotel provides great service.” 12
- “Set on bustling Bourbon Street on the site of the former French Opera House, Four Points by Sheraton French Quarter is an upscale hotel with an almost unbeatable location.” 8
- “The best hotel for all around purposes is The Royal Sonesta. Why? It is centrally-located within walking distance of all the best attractions of the Quarter (superb restaurants, Bourbon Street "action", Jackson Square, Riverwalk, etc.).” 16
- “At the Sheraton downtown Denver-what a mess! The footprint is so strange. The service is poor and they have a race closing off the parking tomorrow so we can't use our car until after nine or we have to park 4 blocks away in an unsecured lot.” 11
- “If you want to be right in the middle of the Bourbon Street action in New Orleans, Sheraton Four Points is one of your better hotel options. Just a few blocks from Jackson Square, Sheraton Four Points is walking distance from all of the French Quarter tourist sites and a mile and a half drive to the cruise port.” 4
- “The Royal Sonesta is the nicest large hotel right on Bourbon Street. It takes up the entire block between Bienville and Conti, and offers full service. The location makes for an easy walk to any of the attractions in the Quarter.” 16
- “If you really wanted to change, the Omni is cheap in the summer and down the street.” 5
- “While the stay was fine it was nothing over the top and especially so now that the price to stay has exploded to dizzying levels per day (with so little offered).” 10
- “The room rates are a bit pricey, but if you don't mind the heat, you can get some affordable rates in July and August.” 16
- “I have the courtyard view which is more economical than the Bourbon Street balcony. They do provide ear plugs but noise has never been an issue for me in this hotel.” 4
- “[na-delete] • 3 taon ang nakalipas That's a nice hotel; it don't matter at all that it's on Bourbon as you're about two blocks from Jackson Sq. That's a nice hotel; it don't matter at all that it's on Bourbon as you're about two blocks from Jackson Sq. and it will be pretty darn quiet.” 5
- “Private balconies overlook the Bourbon Street commotion, yet interiors remain quiet.” 9
- “Be ready for the noise if you want a street view room.” 10
- “Any hotel in the French Quarter will be close to Bourbon Street. You might not want to be right on Bourbon street - unless you are getting a balcony - because it will be quite noisy, people are on Bourbon till about 4 am.” 16
- “Toulouse Street balcony rooms are larger and quieter than Bourbon street side.” 9
- “French doors block the noise when closed.” 9
- “The view is amazing from any of the floors above 20 or so. That's a nice hotel; it don't matter at all that it's on Bourbon as you're about two blocks from Jackson Sq. and it will be pretty darn quiet.” 5
- “Very convenient to get to most of the FQ restaurants, French Market, the aquarium.” 5
- “Most Four Points by Sheraton include a basic free breakfast. Not this location. We ordered items a la cart and paid about $25 per day.” 10
- “We ordered items a la cart and paid about $25 per day. They did provide, with breakfast, complimentary mini donuts each day that were most nummy.” 10
- “The room didn't have any bathroom toiletries, no ice bucket, no TV remote. The restaurant had extremely limited hours. The hotel and grounds were not clean.” 11
- “The restaurant had extremely limited hours. The hotel and grounds were not clean. Disappointed as a brand under the Marriott name. Would not recommend.” 11

- “The view is amazing from any of the floors above 20 or so.” 5
