Not Prepared for The Weather

No hot water during our stay, no assistance carrying bags up the stairs, as we checked out we asked about the posted gift of wine which we weren’t given (they then gave us a bottle), and the steps going in on the night of arrival were wicked scary icy!! Parking lot was not available and street parking was two hour parking only. Check in staff encouraged us to just park there. At checkin, staff were not sure if a room was left, told us we don’t get hot water, no place to eat and she wasn’t sure we would get the advertised breakfast in the morning. We were not offered any other accommodations and it is highly unlikely that Hotels.com will give us any refund or discounted rate for our stay.

The Melrose Mansion was a lovely stay. The bed was comfortable, and I enjoyed having complimentary snacks provided in my room. The property is more on the historic side so I wouldn't expect everything to look brand new. Our bed squeaked and the breakfast ran out of plates, coffee, and some of the food items for one morning we went down to eat. Staff was very friendly.

So you are not staying at Saint Regis. But if you are into fun historical, this is a great stay. The rooms are clean. The staff is amazing and we love the privacy in the quiet. Plus, you can walk anywhere around you want as far as the French corner goes.

Loved our stay at Melrose Mansion! The location was literally perfect. Walking distance to Bourbon St, French Quarter, & the French Market. The building itself was beautiful & Jaylin was so sweet - she definitely set the tone for our stay. Gave us a lot of recommendations on where to eat & drink. Overall 10/10

Hey! It’s Singlemamatravelista and here’s my thoughts on the Melrose Mansion! What to love: 3. The hotel truly has the historic feel of old Orleans. Modern yet preserved, you truly experience the elegance of historic Nola. From fixtures to iconic pics and chandeliers; the place is a true vibe! 2. The boutique feel of the hotel with VIP amenities offered give it a special edge. Prior to check in an email is received to choose your luxuries. Do you want robe and slippers? Extra complimentary snacks or drinks? Satin pillow cases or lavender pillow spray? Massagers or upgraded Dyson hair appliances? All are offered to set you up for a luxurious stay. 1. VIP suites offer extra privacy and luxury to include a secured key entrance balcony that solely encompasses your suite. The suite has full service kitchen, small living room, lovely bathroom with huge sit in shower and one of the most comfy king sized beds I’ve ever slept in. the apartment feel makes this hotel a true gem among boutique hotels in NOLA! What to be aware of: 3. The suite was on the 3rd floor and the elevator was out of service. Keep in mind, this is an old mansion so stairs are high and curvy. If you have alot of luggage, and want a ViP room, make sure make sure to confirm the elevator is working! 2. The hot water was not working. The water was ice cold! The hotel ended up allowing me to shower in another room. 1. Amenities were not in my room upon check in. Had to walk down 3 flights to get them.

Pay at hotel is not what it seems.

I loved the place and would stay again. One thing I was annoyed about was that even though I had selected pay at hotel they Roomza group actually processed the entire transaction a day before I arrived. This meant that I lost the opportunity to gain points using another card which I chose not to use online. Either way the organisation should not have processed it, I complained and recieved no resolution. Otherwise, this is a good place and Miss Emily at reception is a welcoming concierge.

Great location, the place feels more like home compared to traditional hotels. You are within walking distance to any attraction ( Caesar Superdome, French quarter, Jackson square) The managers were extremely nice, informative and always available to satisfy any requests. Shower had great pressure/temperature, place was always clean 11/10 would stay again

Wouldn’t Stay Here Again

Emily is an absolute gem, she is the best thing about this place. Other than that, this place is poorly managed. The building is charming but a bit run down. The cleanliness was not good. Don’t expect a good breakfast or any breakfast really. They make a pan of eggs, meat and waffles and if you’re lucky cups of yogurt, and don’t refill it so if you come after 8am you’re SOL. Last day we were there they didn’t even try to serve breakfast, they tried to give us ubereats vouchers instead that barely even covered the delivery to the place. Worst part was when we arrived our room that we reserved was given away so they tried to put us in a suite without the amenities we reserved and the room was in a building that was 2 doors down and so musty I couldn’t breathe. Next room they tried to put us in was a smaller one and the bathroom had not been cleaned. We were finally put in a small room with a small bed for our first night after a long day of travel. Would not stay here again.

The location was great, the room was cozy and spacious enough, and the bed was comfortable. However, the problem was that I couldn't use hot water in either the wash room or the shower. This was particularly unfortunate during the winter season, although everything else was very good considering the cost performance.
