My stay
It is a lovely hotel with comfortable beds and linens. Smart decor. My complaint would be not having the room serviced. There is no placard to place on the door to ask to not be disturbed or to be cleaned. I went out early for the day and came back tired to rest at 4 that is when the maid came to clean and disturb me. Another note is no one at the main front door. It is a heavy door and when you have luggage and no one there it is not so welcoming.

What happened to this lovely hotel?
The restaurant and cafe are good and staff is amicable. Unfortunately the rooms seem to have gone into disrepair. I have stayed there several times but this year out room had missing light bulbs, non working lamps, a very wet carpeted floor on arrival, mushroom type orange mold around the bathtub, all broken towel hooks, broken shower faucet and the toilet made huge screeching sounds so I could not use the bathroom while my daughter was sleeping.

Not as expected
We left this hotel for another after one night. The elevator, hallways and our room smelled dirty and moldy. The chandelier in our room was covered in dust. I’m not sure how it has such high reviews. The staff was accommodating of our request to cancel the remainder of our trip.

Wonderful people and place
Amazing customer service. The valet and front desk employees went above and beyond to ensure a good stay. The rooms were very comfortable and we loved the historic building and decor. Convenient location in a quieter section of the city too.

This cute hotel was adorable and had me fully emerged in New Orleans and I loved it ! We caught thr trolly to bourbon nightly and walked to frenchmen street. I had my Birthday dinner at Jack Rose and loveed it ! The vibe was everything the drinks were great I had a come get it bay ! I lobed the rosemary lamb chops and my baby had the fettuccine Nero ( black noodle alfredo pasta and it was good and the best thing was the rabbit sausage… On my birthday I went to the Hot Tin cafe . The rooftoop bar that we seen the whole town came to conquer. Everynight the line was long outside the elevator.. the view was amazing and it was just a vibe but not very big so just be aware.
