This may be my favorite hotel that I’ve stayed at. It’s beautiful & comfortable. Kind of gives the vibe of Vampire Diaries. The rooms aren’t big but are very comfortable. Staff is very friendly & helpful. I would definitely stay here again.

The hotel is the prefect location on Decatur St in the French Quarter. I had the queen petite room which is perfect for a solo traveler. Comfortable bed, frig, coffee maker. The room faces St Louis St which was very quiet and has afternoon sun. The staff is welcoming, knowledgeable and very helpful. As a solo traveler I appreciate the hotel’s attention to security with cards for elevators, cameras and 24 hour security staff. My room and the common areas were immaculate. The shaded courtyard and pool area are comfortable areas to sit with coffee or food. PJ’s coffee is downstairs and Cafe du Monde is a short 4 block walk. Would definitely stay there again.

Would stay here again. Lovely hotel with charming courtyard and quiet room. Close enough to walk to Bourbon street but far enough to get away from the loud music to get a good nights sleep. Can’t beat the value either! Restaurants are plentiful within walking distance!

Extremely cute rooms, very boutique like hotel. We have being coming to New Orleans for so many years and have always walked past this hotel and always wondered. So glad that we decided to stay here for a quick weekend getaway. It truly was a hidden gem. Smack dab in the middle of the Quarter and walking distance to everything. Felt extremely safe and had zero outside noise! Think it may become our new favorite place to stay!

This hotel is a gem—charming, cozy, and full of character. The staff is absolutely lovely, making you feel welcome from the moment you arrive. It’s a simple yet elegant spot, perfectly located in the heart of the French Quarter. You’re just a few blocks from Bourbon Street, with endless options around to explore, eat, and enjoy. The front-facing rooms offer a beautiful view of the Mississippi River, adding to the overall experience. Can’t recommend it enough for anyone wanting to soak up the best of New Orleans.
