Beautiful room, a bit noisy at times, but our room was by the elevator. The older woman at the front desk needs to improve her attitude a little, smile more. The restaurant on site was lovely Polynesian food and drinks. The hostess needs a little help, she seemed confused, totally frazzled. The place is so cute would have loved to have dinner there

Wonderful ladies in the morning. Mailane was despicable. I have always loved Bienville House. Stayed there many times before the renovation. Sadly, I will not return. There are far too many options in this wonderful city to tolerate the treatment I received from Mailane.

This is an old hotel. The floors are wavy, posing a safety hazard. There was mold on the balcony door, another safety hazard. The staff was a bit gruff when checking in.

Day staffing, especially Cynthia was extremely nice. Night lady was not too nice. Property is located in great walking distance. Old and needs a good upgrade. This is an historic property and it is beautiful, however it could use the carpeting replaced in halls, pool was not cleaned, you can use the pool at the other property, that would have been nice, I would old have liked to use the pool where I am.,the Tiki bar is also a good option as the location. Have stayed at this beautiful place before with my mother. Would like to stay again. We Hank you for all the morning staffing that assisted and always made you feel welcome in our his great city.

Overall, a great stay at a wonderful property. The only flaws were the housekeeping department. We did not have towels on the last two days of our stay and had trouble finding a housekeeper to give us any. Exceptional staff were the Bellman, his name is Karlton and the Agent, her name is Cynthia. They went above and beyond to help us and made the stay nearly perfect.

Great place to stay its walkable to everywhere in the quarter and just cross over to canal street if you want to catch a trolley or hang out to downtown. Also if you want to sleep you can because you wont hear the drunkies on off burbon street or much elsre but yet walk back to the hotel in whatever condition you're in.
