The hype
Universally praised for service that makes you feel like royalty, but the 'classic' decor is polarizing.

Rezervējiet, ja You want the closest thing to a British royal residence in the American South, complete with high tea and a $10 million art collection.
Kāpēc cilvēki to mīl
- The 'Club Level' is actually worth the splurge for the skyline views and four daily food presentations
- Heated rooftop saltwater pool that stays open year-round (a rarity in NOLA)
- It's an oasis of silence just two blocks from the chaos of the French Quarter
Ātrs apskats: It feels a bit like staying at your wealthy great-aunt's English manor—impeccable service and stunning art, but the vibe is definitely 'old money' rather than 'modern cool'.
Pārskatīts: @theandreaandrade: I felt like a total queen in this suite! The vanity is hands down the prettiest I've ever used, and having a full living room to lounge in after exploring NOLA made this my absolute favorite stay. The bed is like sleeping on a cloud.

Reality check
The 'heated' pool can still feel chilly during actual winter snaps, despite the marketing.
- You appreciate old-school hospitality where staff learn your name immediately
- You want to be near the French Quarter but absolutely refuse to sleep inside it
- You are traveling with a dog (the pet program is legendary)

BUJ un paslēptie paņēmieni
Viss, kas jums patiešām jāzina pirms grāmatošanas.
Is the pool actually heated?
Yes, it's a saltwater pool heated year-round, but reviews suggest it struggles to keep up when temps drop below 50°F.
How far is Bourbon Street?
Ideally located: it's a 5-10 minute walk, meaning you can easily visit the chaos but you don't have to sleep in it.
Is the Club Level worth the extra cost?
Yes. For the price of a few cocktails and breakfast elsewhere, you get almost unlimited food and drink presentations throughout the day.
Can I bring my dog?
Absolutely. It's one of the most pet-friendly hotels in the city, though there is a non-refundable $150 fee.
Is there a resort fee?
No specific 'resort fee' was found in current searches, unlike many competitors, but always double-check at booking.
Does the room have a coffee maker?
Suites have Nespresso machines; standard rooms typically have high-end Keurig-style brewers.
Insider padomi
- ✨
The house car driver (often a retired local pro) is a better source of restaurant tips than the concierge desk.
- ✨
You can order food from the pool bar even if you aren't swimming—it's a great quiet lunch spot.
- ✨
The 'Last Sunday' coffee bar in the lobby serves excellent local pastries if you want to skip the $40 sit-down breakfast.
