Fodor's "One of the best hotels in the Quarter if you're looking for somewhere that's memorably authentic, this "real New Orleans" hotel is a nicely secluded option." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Popular with business travelers and families, the family-owned Provincial’s rooms have a vintage look, with antiques and exposed brick."
Rough Guide "This sprawling – yet somehow intimate – place is in a quiet part of the Quarter, with rooms around five peaceful, gaslit courtyards."
Star Service "Hotel Provincial is located three blocks past Jackson Square and at the French Market—a neighborhood where the Mardi Gras atmosphere never wanes." Full review
Gayot "It is family owned and blends the best of the chains (good prices, reliably comfy rooms and service) with the charms of a small, independent hotel (atmosphere, friendliness and individuality)."
Travel + Leisure "The Provincial hotel is commonly referred to as one of the more frequently haunted spots in New Orleans." Full review
OysterMid-Range
"The two-story Hotel Provincial -- with 94 rooms in the historic French Quarter -- is a retreat into old New Orleans." Full review
Frommer's "Both the quiet and the terrific service belie its size, so it seems smaller and more intimate than it is." Full review
Lonely Planet Top Choice
"Behind its stately stucco facade, this hotel fills much of the block with a series of finely restored buildings and a large parking area." Full review
Independent "It might not equate to a night at the museum, but thanks to its listing on the National Register of Historic Places, everything from the façade to the rooms of Hotel Provincial maintains a wistful sense of yesteryear"
