"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

"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

"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 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."

"Some see this as a small, sweet, slightly funky inn, very popular with in-the-know regular visitors who think of it as quintessential New Orleans." Full review

"This hotel is just steps away from the French Quarter and the Frenchmen Street music scene. It’s a compound of several 19th-century buildings."
Gayot Gayot
"Situated on the best street to hear live music in all of New Orleans, this small hotel makes up for its tiny spaces with an accommodating staff and plenty of Old World charm."
