Just at the edge of the Quarter so it’s not too loud but walkable to the rowdy areas. Close to Frenchman St, so there’s even more options of jazz bars. The people were lovely. The rooms were great super happy with my stay.
Bedroom was clean and simple. 👍🏻
Sadly rained that day so we didn’t swim in the lovely pool.

This is our go-to hotel in the French quarter. The rooms are always clean and the bed comfortable. This time our higher priced balcony suite was disappointing. The air conditioning blew so cold it was uncomfortable and the room felt much colder than where the thermostat was set. Also there was an outlet on only one side of the bed, which is very inconvenient for charging phones or being able to plug in two CPAPs. It seems they could easily run a conduit behind the bed and add add another outlet.

We stayed in a suite, room 218, loved the location!!! Not too close to all the rifraf but still walking distance to get to the rifraf. The place was very spacious, could have easily brought the kiddos to crash on the sofa.

Beautiful hotel. In a quiet area of the French quarter. But still close enough to walk around to Bourbon Street and other sights. I liked that they have secured parking. The pool was amazing and so relaxing. The hotel staff was so nice. Room was very beautiful and clean.
