Rude desk clerk. When had complaint about property, she reacted by refusing to listen and flipped me managers card. Turned property complaint into a personal thing. Told to move out way. Detected not so subtle racism.

The room was nicely furnished and comfortable. Staff was a little inattentive. Amenities (shampoo, coffee,etc.) were sparse. Great music in the downstairs bar, unfortunately didn’t get to go to the rooftop bc it was closed in the morning and only 21+ when open so my 18 year old son couldn’t go see the view. That was disappointing.

Great stay!

We've stayed at The Pontchartrain Hotel several times, and continue to come back! It's a great option if you want to be a little outside of the French Quarter and has great restaurants, bar, and central location!

New Orleans Staycation

Such a relaxing getaway! The bed and robe was sooooo comfy! In a relaxing and safe part of New Orleans—just walk out front and take the streetcar to Canal Street and you don’t have to park in the French Quarter! The streetcar pass is $3 per person and good for 24 hours! Can’t beat it—views and easy in/out to French quarter! It is $55 a night for valet parking (but so safe and worth it).
The lobby and welcome to New Orleans guide!
So comfy! We had the regular king room—very quiet and very relaxing!
The robes! Enough said!
New Orleans glamour! This hotel was built in 1927 and has so many bygone era/jazzy feels!

This property is located amongst a variety of dining and shopping options. It’s in close proximity to many of New Orleans attractions. The property is in need of some updates. Their staff was very friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed our stay here.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The bed was very comfortable and the location was just what I was looking for - but - - I was expecting a city view - the room was prepaid through Expedia but 3 additional 'holds' were placed on my Visa card totalling over $1700.00 and one was added the day AFTER we checked out. - the carpet was so dirty that our bare feet and socks turned brown on the bottom and left dirty footprints on the tile floor in the bathroom - furnishing were old and uncomfortable - lighting was not good - pillows were very small - cafe open untial 11AM and restaurant not opend mon - Wed. onsight restaurant and cafe were the main reason for choosing this hotel - overall I was not happy
