Frommer's "This is the place for those who want something more than a B&B but dislike the generic quality that comes with a chain or business-oriented hotel." Full review
Fodor's "For those who prefer a quieter neighborhood, the elegance of St. Charles Avenue is laid out before you in this small, chic hotel—plus, you're right next to the streetcar line." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Right on the St. Charles Avenue streetcar line, the Lafayette recalls the elegant residential hotels of an earlier era with its classic decor, friendly staff, and handsome Beaux-Arts building."
Gayot "This 1916 Beaux-Arts building sits at the edge of Lafayette Square just outside downtown New Orleans. It is a small, nearly hidden jewel on the St. Charles Avenue streetcar line."
Zagat4.3
"Everything you need" is on hand at this "beautiful" boutique, a 1916 landmark, done up in French Regency style with marble floors, antiques and mahogany."

Star Service "Located a half-block from Bourbon Street, five blocks from Jackson Square, the Prince Conti is one of five hotels owned by the Valentino family, which include this charmer in the budget category." Full review
Gayot "The best part of this hotel's charm is that it looks and feels as fresh and well-maintained as it did in the mid-twentieth century."
BlackBook "No frills, no room service, no nothing. Just clean chambers, parking and a great location in the middle of the French Quarter's action."
OysterBudget
