Guest Reviews & Ratings
This hotel is a gem located right by the French Quarter, making it easy to explore the vibrant New Orleans neighborhoods. The rooms are heavenly with incredibly soft sheets on the dreamy king beds, but the dining options were a bit limited. The service was top-notch, and the location is ideal for soaking in the essence of the Marigny district. The facilities are fantastic, offering a great value for the price.
The hotel is situated in the charming Marigny district, a perfect location offering easy access to the French Quarter and many attractions. The rooms are cozy with a dreamy king bed, although a touch more variety in dining would be welcome. The service is attentive, and the proximity to music venues and transport adds to the overall convenience.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were incredibly cozy with the softest sheets on the bed and a dreamy king bed that provided a fantastic night's sleep. The service, especially from the housekeeping staff, was top-notch. The location was spot on, well within walking distance to the French Quarter, making exploring the beautiful Marigny district and several awesome New Orleans neighborhoods a breeze. The hotel's dining options were plentiful, offering many courses of wonderful food. Although the price was a bit high, the value for money was definitely there.
