Valet staff was amazing and so friendly. Cynthia at the front desk was wonderful. Directly across the street from house of blues, which is why we were in town. Beautiful hotel. Would definitely stay here again. Additionally, very close to the quarter but very quiet and peaceful.

Great location in the French Quarter, and just on the river edge. Quiet compared to other FQ areas. Easy walk to everywhere and trolley is just across the road. Loved our stay here.

A unique hotel. Close the most the activities, easy walk. Had room 207 the balcony room that was nice. The large elevated bed with the dimmable candelabra, romantic.
The staff was very nice.
Problems- TV was broke (believe it or not was froze on christmas eve of 2025) plus the phone didn't work and even though requested, never got fixed. The carpet needed disparate cleaning.
With that said , would revisit staying there again.

Overall it was a wonderful experience!! The staff were amazing and incredibly accommodating, and the location was perfect— close to everything you could want to see in the French quarter. We stayed on the fourth floor and the floors were so creaky!! So much so that my daughter felt bad walking across the room at night for fear of disturbing our downstairs neighbors.
