DK Eyewitness "Generations of Southern families have stayed at the Prince Conti. Rooms vary in size and are handsomely furnished with antiques and art."
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."

"This mid-range hotel has an amazing location in the French Quarter, not even a block from famed Bourbon Street." Full review
Not For Tourists "Tiny, off-Bourbon hotel with good rates."
Frommer's "This tiny but friendly hotel is in a great location right off Bourbon and not generally noisy." 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
