Frommer's "The Columns is worth a stay if you can get a low rate; otherwise, come by for a drink." Full review
Fodor's "This white-columned 1883 Victorian hotel drips with local charm and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places." Full review
Travel + Leisure "That a landmark so rife with atmosphere could also function as a workaday tavern is one of the Columns’s singular charms." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This small hotel is famous as the set for the Louis Malle film Pretty Baby and has plenty of fans for its laid-back ambience."
Rough Guide "Deliciously atmospheric uptown hotel in a stately 1883 mansion on the streetcar line."
Gayot "This hotel was built in an opulent Italianate style in 1883. Locals meet for drinks on its huge front porch that, flanked by the hotel's namesake columns, faces St. Charles Avenue."
BlackBook "The Columns is where to stay if you're doing the whole antebellum New Orleans routine, though the mansion itself--fronted by immense, Doric columns--was constructed after the Civil War."
Lonely Planet "This stately 1883 Italianate mansion in the Garden District is both elegant and relaxed, boasting all sorts of extraordinary original features." Full review
Not For Tourists "A step back in time, and home to one of uptown's preeminent bars."

Ample windows give a wide-screen feel to the corner rooms, but ask for a higher-floor assignment to minimize morning street noise.

"Trendsetters and celebs stay at the International House Hotel for its quietly sexy vibe, attentive staff, and posh rooms designed by a top L.A. designer." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Staying here is an adventure – of the pleasant kind. Most months there’s an elaborate voodoo altar in the lobby."
Star Service "In the Central Business District, this hotel is only two blocks from the French Quarter but its modish avant-garde design is miles away in style." Full review
Gayot "It has all the modern luxuries, feels at one with its surroundings and injects an element of fun. The intriguing mix of minimalism and indulgence has set a local standard for contemporary design."
Zagat4.2
""Incredibly modern" but still "romantic", this design-forward boutique nestled in a beaux arts building "just outside the French Quarter" woos with "stunning" decor."
Travel + Leisure "Just three blocks from the French Quarter, the International House hotel has a white Beaux-Arts exterior dating from the early 1900’s." Full review
