I stayed with my family (2 adults and 2 teens). We had a great time and enjoyed the hotel very much! Love the history. Great price too. Very convenient location! The pool area was really nice and the staff was very kind and helpful. Rooms were renovated and clean. We loved the 2 bedroom suite. Plenty of room and great closet space. Our only complaint would be the lack of mirrors. Maybe add a full length mirror in the closet. And hopefully the bar will reopen soon? We will definitely be back.

French Quarter Fest 2025

I loved the hotel, history of it and the location. Unfortunately it was supposed to have a bar which was closed and staff did not know when it would reopen. Marisol was lovely and even let us borrow her person charger when we had an issue with ours. Great location for Fest and Frenchmen St.

The Locations was great, Everything was far away enough to be quiet at the hotel, but close enough to walk to everything. Bourbon St., Museums, great restaurants, Armstrong park. The only issue is that the hotel was not very Updated and Modern. I could not control the temp in my room, the elevators were a little scary and the bar has not been open since COVID. The Staff was amazing!
