The room was odd. The door didn’t close well and would open up randomly. One of the beds felt like it was just put the the room without thought about size of the space. It was pretty cramped in there. The hotel itself was fine. Staff was sweet. The room was just weird.

It’s an older mansion, with history and character. What I was not happy with was we booked this place for the POOL, but they didn’t tell us it was 2 properties, and we were at the property with no pool. This was in super fine print ONLY on a confirmation email. Seriously. This unto itself, is shady, and I will not return. Properties must be clear about the details, it matters.

I stay at Rathbone every time I travel to New Orleans. It’s a great location. Street parking is never a problem. And I like having the complementary breakfast in the morning. I get all of that for a reasonable price.

Great old New Orleans property. We really enjoyed our stay. Be prepared to walk some stairs if you are on the 2nd floor. The property was built in the 1890’s, so expect a creak or two from the floors and not the super polished room you might get at newer hotel. The beds were comfortable and the room was clean. Great pool area. Can’t wait to stay again!

The hotel was a lovely old classic New Orleans house in the French quarter. The room felt a bit run down but it was beautiful and had big wraparound balcony out front. The rooms were a great size and the staff were lovely and helpful. Overall, good value for money.

Everything was in walking distance which was fantastic. Parking was tight. Water took a while to get warm. But it was still a super cute place to stay.
