Lonely Planet "Nine buildings from the 1830s combine to form a fine mid-range hotel in the very heart of the Quarter." Full review
Star Service "The fact that its room rates are so low keeps this place on the short list of both budgeters and those willing to pay up, everyone clearly enjoying the excellent location and friendly vibe." Full review
Gayot "A stone's throw from historic St. Louis Cathedral and a couple blocks from Bourbon Street, yet private and quiet enough to escape the madding crowds."

The Telegraph8.0
"What began life as an 18th-century school and became a mid 20th-century motel is now a French Quarter institution with one of the most wonderfully landscaped hotel courtyards in the city." Full review
Frommer's "If you’re planning to spend a lot of time sightseeing, this is a good choice for French Quarter lodging, especially given the relatively decent rates (which include basic continental breakfast)" Full review
