Charming older hotel that's been refurbished. Wonderful staff. Great location. There were two downsides: the heating in our room wasn't adequate to keep our room warm. And, although the hotel has elevators, you will have to haul your luggage up a few stairs to get into the hotel and to your room.

Great spot in the French Quarter, especially for a family of five. We had a big space to ourselves: 2 queens and a king and we were super comfortable. Conveniently located, easy to walk everywhere. Will definitely return.
