The property itself is in the best location possible. It is very walkable to everything you will want to see and do. The property has a bar and has music nightly. We stated in room #207 we could hear the music in our room but to us it wasn't too load. We both fell asleep before the music ended. The biggest problem we had was no hot water in room. We didn't complain to management, I'm not sure other than switching rooms changing rooms.

Checked in and our 2 bedroom suite had not been cleaned. Lots of apologies and they got it done while we were at dinner. After 4 nights they never cleaned our room again. We requested it twice. They brought us 3 clean towels and 3 fitted sheets. It's a quaint little boutique hotel on the very edge of the French Quarter. Most of the employees were very kind, but never followed up on tgeir promises.

Location was good. However, owner and staff were unhelpful. We reserved a king room with balcony a month ago. When we got there they didn't have our reservation. By their own admission, their computer system is outdated and doesn't communicate with Expedia. We were due a refund off $108. They said get it from Expedia. Expedia said get it from the hotel. I guess we're screwed. The room we got was about the size of a walk-in closet. Very disappointed. DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS HOTEL OR EXPEDIA.

This is a great boutique hotel at the top of Frenchman Street (which is a more authentic version of Bourbon street). It's a great hotel and location for access to the bars, restaurants and live music the street has to offer - which goes on to at least midnight. Thus, if what you want is peace and quiet at 10pm then this is probably not the place for you! The room was lovely and to a high specification - however, whether we were at the end of a long pipe run, the hot water took and age to actually arrive, and it only just got hot enough to shower. Breakfast is also rather casual and a bit "hit & miss" (maybe they expected everyone to go out for brunch??). But we thoroughly enjoyed our four day stay - and would stay again if we were in New Orleans. There is no parking provided (we dumped our rental car on arrival in NOLA as you can use the Jazzy Pass to get around) but this a common issue and we planned accordingly.

My family really enjoyed this hotel and its proximity to local eats and live music. The bartender was fantastic and she made unique, tailored drinks for her guests. The only thing that could have been better was hot shower water being more consistent, but the historic nature of the property could be the cause of this. Other than that, the staff was extremely friendly and helpful throughout our stay. There was live music in the lobby every night! We would definitely consider staying here again!

No room at the inn

I made a reservation at the Royal Frenchman for two nights at the conclusion of a cruise. When I got to the hotel at 11am I was told the room was not ready. I then sat for three hours. When I enquired at 2:30 I was told there was a note on my reservation that I had been upgrade at no charge but the room was not ready. At 3pm I enquired again. She said let me go see if the room is ready. She returned and played with her computer. Then she said it looks like we overbooked and we do not have a room for you. But, do not worry, you will get a refund. I asked her what I was supposed to do. She said "that's not my job." I found another hotel and Uber'd there. Now back at home, I find out the hotel charged me again for that first night. And, I have not received any refund. I call the hotel but no one returns my call.
