Frommer's "This is the place for those who want something more than a B&B but dislike the generic quality that comes with a chain or business-oriented hotel." Full review
Fodor's "For those who prefer a quieter neighborhood, the elegance of St. Charles Avenue is laid out before you in this small, chic hotel—plus, you're right next to the streetcar line." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Right on the St. Charles Avenue streetcar line, the Lafayette recalls the elegant residential hotels of an earlier era with its classic decor, friendly staff, and handsome Beaux-Arts building."
Gayot "This 1916 Beaux-Arts building sits at the edge of Lafayette Square just outside downtown New Orleans. It is a small, nearly hidden jewel on the St. Charles Avenue streetcar line."

The Telegraph8.0
"There’s an intimate yet stately feel to this low-profile property on the edges of the French Quarter, and the historic tradition of hospitality in this location shines through despite its modest size." Full review
Frommer's "This boutique hotel, owned by the Monteleone, injects a touch of class here and there...rooms are showing their age, but have high ceilings and French reproduction furnishings" Full review
Lonely Planet Top Choice
