The staff were lovely and i appreciated my upgrade very much. I mean it to be constructive when I note that the coffee and tea spread in the room was terrible; it's so easy to get this right these days that it's notable when it's just basic. The room is so inherently pretty, it just would have benefited from flowers and fruit and an interior designer's touch. The couch cover was just kinda ghetto. Call me if you want an interior design makeover, I lvoe your hotel and want it to shine when i come back! And again, all the staff were so so sweet.

Great location at the edge of the French Quarter. Excellent, spacious room with a great balcony. Loved the staff. Very nice and attentive. The shower was really weird, though. Definitely hot water but no way to get it to reliably come out of the shower head.

The location of Melrose is great - close to the French Quarter and Frenchman Street but not right in the thick of things. The rooms were super clean and spacious. We reserved one of the Napoleon Queen rooms - I believe they were the only ones remaining. They are located in a room adjacent to the Mansion. People who are sensitive to noise and light should consider booking another room or location. 2 of the 4 rooms back up to the street, making it quite noisy with the older walls and door. There is also a security light outside that makes it very hard to darken the room at night. The water in the shower does not get above luke warm, at best, so if you like hot showers, this may not be the best bet for you. Most of the staff were very helpful and friendly. We were given two different times for breakfast so we almost missed that one day.
