We had a two-room suite, spacious and clean. Hotel property well-kept and the staff super friendly. Pool was clean, it had a great little bar with happy hour along with fruited water up front at all times. I have stayed in a lot of places in the quarter for over 30 years, I look forward to staying here again!

We love staying here! This was our 2nd time at le Richelieu (4th time in Nola). Becky at the front desk was so kind and helpful, it was such a warm check in process. The room was comfortable and clean. The location of this hotel is perfect for us. Still in the quarter but a quiet street. Easy walk to the center of everything, also very close to Frenchmen street. We will definitely be back!
