We loved that this hotel was so close to everything we wanted to do. If we needed to go back to our room for something, it wasn't a far walk at all. This hotel was very clean, and the staff was very pleasant.

The location was excellent, and the staff were so friendly. I slept on a sofa bed, which was fine. I appreciated having my own space, since it was 3 of us. The pool was not open - I don't think I would have used it, since it was cold outside.

Double Charge for Vehicle Parking
I have a double charge on my charge card for my vehicle parking for one night. I was told it would take a few days to correct this. My charge for the room went through the system within minutes and I am told it would take a few days to correct a charge.

It is a very quiet hotel that is tucked into a side street from the main busy Canal Street area. Minutes away from bars, cafes and restaurants.

The hotel is beautiful and the staff are very kind, attentive and helpful. The hotel is near everything in the French Quarter. There is also a fun Tiki restaurant downstairs that serves great food and drinks. Our stay was wonderful and we couldn’t have asked for more!

I have stayed in a lot of hotels in New Orleans and this may be my new favorite. Beautiful from the moment you walk in the door. There were a couple of mechanical issues, but that’s to be expected in an older building and they were handled quickly. Our room was large and comfortable. Very elegant. We were on the second floor overlooking the street, so I was afraid it would be too loud. Nope. Almost no street noise. Very modern bathroom, too. The staff remembered us from day to day and took care of us very well. I will absolutely stay here again.
