Le Richelieu

Did you know this hotel has been under the same ownership for 43 years and holds the Louisans record of 100# occupancy for seven straight years ? Enjoy a page from the past at this hotel ! Several on the staff have been their for over 25 years ? Right on the edge of the French Quarter ! !

It was my godmother's birthday....My cousin and I had been planning the trip for months....Not only did the hotel provide superior service, even on a very busy weekend,the staff went out of their way to make sure we had a fantastic trip....The entire experience was priceless....Must stay in the Lower Quarter

breakfast by the pool afternoon cocktail in the lounge with a great host/bartender pleasant helpful staff walking distance to most of the french quarter.

The staff was real nice, but our A/C didn't work on Friday night, so it was a very long night in the New Orleans heat. They moved us on Saturday and from then on we had a pleasant stay. Wish the room service menu would offer more than continental breakfest, and i wish the pool area offered more shade or umbrellas. Also, the bathrooms have NO A/C which lead to alot of sweating while putting on the final touches, almost needed another shower by the time we were finished.

We stayed just one night, too short to complain about things. For us it was a nice place to stay

If you are touring the city of NO and not just the quarter, then you can't do any better than Le Richilieu. The free self-parking is a wonderful unique amenity. The rooms are adequate and clean, the staff was extremely knowledgeable and provided great recs for dinner/drinks/entertainment. I would definitely stay here again. If you want to party on Bourbon your entire trip, then you could stay closer, but if you are over 30 and want to actually dine/shop/visit unique places, you can't get any better in this price range.

The hotel service people were very polite, and very friendly, which is a big reason I can't completely bash the hotel. That being said the room my wife and I recieved was no better than the rooms at the cheaper hotels just down the street. We paid about three times as much to stay here, because we were under the impression that the rooms were nice. We didn't even have A/C or heat. There were wall fans, which had broken nobs. The room looked like an old apartment, that desperately needed an update. We have stayed at several hotels with much nicer rooms on the same street, for almost a third of what this hotel cost. The free parking was a plus, but definetely not worth the overpriced room considering that the other hotels had parking for only $25 a night.

Le Richelieu is located on the edge of the French Quarter, very convenient. It is a great value for the price and location and I would def stay there again. Of course, the rooms are on the smaller side and the fixtures are old- but all to be expected in an historic hotel. The staff was extremely helpful and accomodating for an early check-in.
