Desire Area Hotels near New Orleans

"Hotel was fantastic but going out on Borboun street at night was sketchy."

"Location was great, towels at the pool were fluffy, and they welcome cookies were phenomenal. We got the corner suite on discount and it was huge! Great value, comfy bed, and 2 bathrooms in the suite. The $25 resort fee comes back as a f&b credit and the bar drinks were not insanely expensive. Burger for lunch from the bar was really tasty."

"best place to stay in the FQ (and I've stayed everywhere down there)"

"The bed was made but no fresh wash clothes and towels had to track down the housekeeping lady"

"Overall great location. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. The beds weren’t the most comfortable but they weren’t awful! I would stay here again. "

"We wanted to stay somewhere that was close to public transportation, in the french quarter and close to the popular sights. The staff were very friendly and helpful and I would definitely stay here again"

"Hotel Monteleone is a beautiful, historic hotel conveniently located in the French Quarter. We were able to walk everywhere, while also stopping back at the hotel throughout the day to drop off our shopping treasures or just take a break from the humidity. The Carousel Bar & Lounge was awesome! I read a review that said it’s busy no matter when you go, and I’d have to agree. We tried three or four times (different days as well as different times of the day) and it was busy every time. We finally got a spot at the bar on Saturday around 11:30am (it opens at 11am) and only because we got lucky and someone at the bar offered to trade for our table. The drinks and food were delicious! We were hoping for a ghost sighting, especially since we were there on Halloween. Unfortunately, we did not have any paranormal experiences, but we had fun trying! A couple staff members were helpful in our quest—showing us a picture of a ghost in the hallway, telling us about their spooky experiences, and one even took us to a ballroom where a man’s ghost has been spotted. We didn’t see the man, but we did get a spectacular view of the city! My only regret is not taking a dip in the rooftop pool. It’s a beautiful outdoor pool located on the 16th floor of the Iberville Tower, with a poolside bar and fabulous views. Next time I’ll be sure not to miss out on taking a swim! Finally, the staff are amazing! I will be staying here again for sure! "

"The valet parking were super rude, that’s the only bad experience we had. Other than that it was a pleasant place to stay."
