I liked it's uniqueness. It was quite and had old time charm to its room. The room and bathroom was spacious. The king size bed was very comfortable. I loved the l.e.d lighted mirror in the bathroom, as well as the overhead shower fixture. The toiletries were also an added bonus.

We loved staying at this property! We upgraded to the balcony view room which we would highly recommend. Such a great view onto the streets below. This hotel is relatively quiet, but close to all the tourist places. We found lots of places to eat around this area, and would highly recommend. Staff were amazing!

Shockingly clean- bathroom, bedroom, everything. It’s hard to find a hotel that don’t gross you out at least a little. This place is impressive. They being said- bring your own shampoo, conditioner, and DEFINITELY soap. Staff is great

This was the second time that we stayed at the Bienville House, and we will stay there again. The staff was very friendly, our room was very clean, the bed was comfortable and the bathroom was updated and beautiful. We actually had two rooms, both rooms were excellent- but the second room’s air conditioning did not work, the staff did offer to move us to a room at their sister hotel, but we chose to stay with our group so we were given box fans for the room. New Orleans in July is hot. Over all it was a great time.

A beautiful property however our stay was totally ruined by the AC in our room which would not cool. It was 74 when we got home from dinner, and would not cool off. Needless to say it was a terrible night. Yes, we informed the front desk, who then said, sorry, it’s central AC 🙄
