Very quaint old historic hotel in the French Quarter, right by the Mississippi River and the river boats and walking distance to several restaurants and attractions. We were there for Jazz Fest and it was convenient to shuttles, etc. Staff was excellent and really a unique NOLA feel.

What a wonderful property. Everyone was friendly, accommodating, and had the best recommendations for restaurants. We had a charming courtyard view room which will be even better after the remodeling. We have found our hotel when we visit NO.
