Fantastic location- just outside of the French quarter so it’s quiet at night. Our room was spacious and clean. Hotel staff were friendly and helpful.

The location was perfect and plenty of parking if you’re driving there. The only bad thing is there is no pool.

The room only had 2 mirror that were both in the bathroom. There was only a microwave in the staff lounge.

The location was excellent. Cross Rampart and you are in the quarter. We liked the museum in the lobby and the cleanliness of the property in general. Room was large and comfortable. Staff was very friendly and efficient.

This was a rare find. Historic structure but rooms were modernized. Very clean. Comfortable bed. Big bathroom and bedroom. Quiet. Front desk check in was a little disheveled due to new staff but she was very helpful and friendly. Didn’t mind the inexperience because she was so nice and trying so hard. Would definitely recommend and stay here again.

Nice boutique hotel near Louis I cemetery. Walkable to the FQ. Limited amenities… cafe doesn’t open until 8:30 and closes at 3 pm. Some dining and drinking establishments within a couple blocks… bar tonique and jewel of the south especially notable.

This hotel was beautiful! Had a very historic feel, while having the modern convenience. Make sure to visit the gift shop. You can book most any tour in the lobby. Has a great cafe, that I wish opened just a bit earlier. 4 blocks from Bourbon St, so the tipsy walk home isn't too bad. The rooms are HUGE! Nice bathroom and shower. Overall, a great place to stay.

This hotel was so unique! We loved the walkability to other areas of NOLA. There was easy access to tours from the downstairs lobby - hop on/hop off bus, cemetery tour. The rooms were comfortable and there were so many points that required key access that the location felt very secure.

The hotel is on the edge of the French Quarter. Generally the hotel is run pretty well but it seems understaffed. When one needs someone to help there is no one around or you have to go downstairs to the lobby, The thermometer in our room was not operating properly and we were told someone would have to come during the day to look after it, We did not want someone poking in our room while we’re out. Got back thst night and complained about lack of heat snd was told they wanted us to switch our room. I asked why I didn’t get a call on my cell phone about this and did not receive a satisfactory response. They had my cell number. It was too late for us to get our things ready to move that night. We did it early the next day, By that time my wife had caught a cold after no heat in our room for two nights. Other things like this occurred. The hotel needs closer contact from management. Other similar things transpired.
