Gayot "This hotel is just three blocks from the tourist-crammed French Quarter and within shouting distance of the always-booked Ernest N. Morial Convention Center."
BlackBook "Hotel suites with exposed brick may not be something you're used to, but it's part of that N'awlins flavor."
Fodor's "This is a good alternative to the huge convention hotels; you're just steps from the major downtown attractions and the Convention Center, and Harrah's New Orleans Casino is a five-minute walk." Full review
Star Service "It provides a vintage warehouselike atmosphere that runs counter to the cool corporate look of the neighboring commercial giants hereabouts." Full review

"Much of the hotel still retains historic elements from the building's 19th-century past, including brick walls, wood-plank floors, and exposed piping." Full review
Travel + Leisure "This new addition to the Central Business/Arts District is certainly helping to tempt guests out of their beloved French Quarter." Full review
Jetsetter "A unique boutique gem in a historic Big Easy building, with an art-centric cultural bent." Full review

Gayot "Although this hotel technically sits outside the French Quarter, it embodies all the character of that famed area."

"Located in a quiet residential area on the outer edges of the French Quarter, this upscale hotel is an elegant mélange of renovated Victorian Gothic mansion and modern bed-and-breakfast." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
"The current building oozes the kind of old world elegance that New Orleans does best, an uptown-style property surrounded by the culture and liveliness of downtown, and all the better for it." Full review
Travel + Leisure "This luxury boutique offers 14 rooms and suites, each with unique design, in the historic Faubourg Marigny neighborhood within walking distance to attractions like the French Market, Cafe du Monde, and Jackson Square"

Frommer's "Enter this grandly columned 1854 Victorian Gothic, and rather than antiques and brocades, you’re met with ultramodern, atonal leather furnishings set against stark white 21-foot-high walls." Full review

"If you were a millionaire with a New Orleans pied-à-terre, this could be it." Full review
