Fodor's "One of the most modern hotels in the French Quarter, Le Marais has trendy furnishings and a lobby that combines urban chic with an artsy New Orleans vibe." Full review
OysterMid-Range
"Hotel Le Marais is a mid-range boutique located in the heart of the French Quarter." Full review
Star Service "In a prime central location...this is one of the best modern boutique-hotels in the French Quarter, a smaller, subtler, more service-oriented translation of International House." Full review

Entry-level Deluxe rooms often stare out at walls and should be avoided.
Gayot "Visitors who were dissatisfied with the old Marie Antoinetteâs frumpy appearance will be thrilled with the Hotel Le Marais --- the property was renamed after the famous Parisian neighborhood."
Jetsetter "This chic French Quarter boutique sleep is less than a block from your Bourbon Street bender." Full review
Not For Tourists "Unimpressive, out-of-date, and near the noisy hustle of Bourbon."
The Telegraph7.0
"Bucking the traditional aesthetic in this historic neighbourhood is a brave move, but one that pays off for this contemporary property." Full review

Frommer's "Overall, the Whitney has more character than your average upscale chain, so it ultimately gets a positive vote. And if you are a preservationist, you will probably like it a lot." Full review
OysterBudget
"This perfectly adequate mid-range hotel in the Central Business District, a block from the Charles streetcar line, has more history and character than your typical chain." Full review
Gayot "This boutique hotel occupies an elaborate Beaux-Arts building that housed a branch of the Whitney National Bank for decades."
Star Service "At any rate, this is a fun and unpretentious hotel with an engaging historic character and reasonable rates outside of the Mardi Gras calendar." Full review
Fodor's "Renovated and expanded, the stylish Whitney is a great choice if you're looking to stay away from the Bourbon Street bustle." Full review
The Telegraph7.0
"This century-old building is a former bank, and many of the original fittings have been retained, giving it an evocative, almost cinematic atmosphere." Full review
