Vacations Close To Esplanade Mall

This is a great location for a property. Close enough to Bourbon Street to walk, yet quite enough, not to be disturbed by the noise. This is an old hotel, 200 years old, and it’s just terribly difficult to uphold the repairs and the amenities on a property like this. If you have a balcony room, make sure it’s overlooking the pool, and not the parking lot Toilet needed to be flushed three or four times for a complete flush. No chair for the desk until I requested one. No chairs or table on balcony. Only one elevator works. After the first day, I didn’t even bother for breakfast. Below average. Sometimes, It appeared that staff was more interested in texting on their telephone, then helping out guests. So remember, this is a cute little boutique hotel, with a great location, in the French Quarter. There’s no training program to teach the staff like at a Hilton or SHERATON. The property is difficult to maintain. I’d say it is a fair value for the money

The location was perfect. Unfortunately we ended up in a room with no windows and it was pretty damn , cold and dark. Room was dated, but we knew it was an older hotel. We tried to change rooms, but they said they were fully booked. We didn't get our room cleaned, nor new towels. We left after the 2nd night and booked at a different hotel. I was claustrophobic in that room.

The hotel is a beautiful historical building within easy walking to local attractions such as Bourbon Street and Frenchman Street. We had a problem with the first room we were given but this was quickly resolved. The staff were very helpful and friendly, special shout out to Perry. All in all a lovely stay in a great city.
