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.

Lovely Escape from the Chaos
I had just spent a long weekend in the quarter and my flight home was canceled. I’d had enough of the smell and noise in the quarter so I picked this hotel in the lower garden district. I feel like I’ve discovered a hidden gem. It’s so pretty inside. My room was huge. My entire stay here was lovely!!
