Great location, walked to jazz fest. We paid for on site parking which was very convenient. The pool was small but done well with outdoor "bar area" you could use that was shaded. Walking distance to French market and Frenchman st. Relaxed atmosphere. Only downside I could mention was little water pressure in bathroom sink - shower was great.

We had a wonderful stay at Rathbone! We stayed for the first weekend of Jazz Fest and our room was wonderful. Having the pool and hot tub was an added bonus. They are also pet-friendly, our pups had a great stay as well! They also have onsite and street parking. The entire staff was warm and welcoming and Kiki really made our stay top notch! Thank you all again, we hope to be back very soon! Sincerely, Lauren, Matt, Squish and Sushi

Absolutely perfect stay for my first time in New Orleans! Hot tub and pool area were great, check-in was easy, the room was lovely— and they had extra umbrellas. Really recommend, it’s within walking distance of major areas, but was quiet and located more within a residential area. I 💗 Rathbone!!

Excellent location - beautiful spot just a short walk from everything. Friendly staff that accommodated our dog with no issues; it was great to be in a room by the courtyard so we could take Peanut outside easily. The room was cute and comfortable. We really enjoyed the pool and hot tub. We cannot wait to come back to NOLA and we know just where to stay again next time!
