Краткий обзор: A faded beauty currently undergoing a loud, messy facelift that has closed the pool and gym until early 2026.
Подтверждено @theandreaandrade: I stayed here recently and was blown away by their new experiences. The candlelight concert was so intimate, and the VIP distillery tour followed by dinner at the Rib Room was the perfect way to taste the city without any hassle. It redefined NOLA for me!

Reality check
The 'historic charm' often translates to peeling wallpaper, musty smells, and paper-thin walls where you can hear your neighbor sneeze.
- You prioritize location over room size
- You want to be steps from Bourbon Street but not *on* it
- You appreciate 'haunted' history and old-world aesthetics
Чистота и уход
7
- Housekeeping: Daily service is reliable, but they are fighting a losing battle against age.
- Bathroom hygiene: Bathrooms are generally clean but dated. Grout lines show age; water pressure is hit-or-miss.
- Maintenance: Peeling wallpaper and scuffed baseboards are common. The renovation is desperately needed.
- Linens & towels: Towels are standard hotel quality, sometimes a bit thin. Sheets are clean but not luxury thread count.
- Odors & scents: Common complaints of 'old building smell' — a mix of mustiness and cleaning chemicals.

Что взять с собой

FAQ и советы
Всё, что вы действительно хотели бы знать перед бронированием.
Is the pool open?
No. The rooftop pool and gym are closed for renovations until early 2026. Partner facilities are available nearby, but it's not the same.
Is it haunted?
Allegedly. Guests frequently report a 'maid' spirit who tucks them in at night and turns on faucets. Ask for the 2nd floor if you want to meet her.
Does the hotel have parking?
Yes, valet only. It costs ~$56/night. There are cheaper public lots (Premium Parking P405) a few blocks away for half the price.
How far is Bourbon Street?
Two blocks. Close enough to walk in 3 minutes, far enough to avoid the worst of the smell.
Is breakfast included?
No. Breakfast at the Rib Room is a la carte and pricey ($20-30/person). Grab a beignet nearby instead.
Are pets allowed?
Yes, under 25 lbs. There is a non-refundable $150 cleaning fee per stay.
Советы инсайдеров

The rooftop observation deck is separate from the pool area and offers the best free 360-degree view of the Quarter — perfect for sunset photos.
- ✨
Ask the Rib Room staff to show you the 'Pipkin' or 'Wine Cellar' private dining rooms downstairs; legend says Jazz Fest was conceived there.
- ✨
The 'Touché Bar' on the corner makes a killer Mint Julep that rivals the more famous spots.
