Quick Verdict: InterContinental New Orleans vs New Orleans Marriott

When InterContinental New Orleans wins: choose InterContinental if you prioritize the St. Charles location and streetcar access, a rooftop pool and a smaller, city-central hotel with a noted Cajun-Creole restaurant (Trenasse) and pub (Pete’s).

When New Orleans Marriott wins: pick the New Orleans Marriott for large conferences, extensive flexible meeting space (86,849 sq ft/8,069 m² listed), very high room count and immediate Canal Street access for quick walks to many French Quarter sights.

Bottom line: both are downtown, full-service hotels within easy walking distance of the French Quarter. Use InterContinental for the St. Charles experience and rooftop pool; use the Marriott for scale, convention facilities, and being right on Canal Street.
