Hotels in Bywater, New Orleans

"Having a baloney room on the second floor was definitely a treat. Housekeeping seemed to be overwhelmed. Our room was missed 2 out of 3 nights. "

"Hotel is right on the corner of bourbon street! Location was perfect!!!"

"I loved it!!"

"The Monteleone is a New Orleans institution, known for its quiet elegance and the famous Carousel Bar. The hotel is spotless, the furnishings elegant and timeless. All of the staff went out of their way to be friendly and engaging. In an area that is as tawdry and touristy as the French Quarter, the hotel manages to maintain its beauty and dignity. We thoroughly enjoyed our brief stay and hope to return. The only drawback, is that the Carousel Bar was full from opening until closing, with parties of people waiting on the sidelines to swoop into a chair the minute someone got up and left, so we didn't get to sit there even once on this trip. I think I've been able to get a seat there twice in about 40 years of New Orleans visits. The hotel has started a program whereby you can have the bar to yourself before 11 a.m. There's probably a charge for the service, but I didn't look into it. I'm not a big day drinker. For a French Quarter hotel, the Monteleone is a wonderful choice. "

"Very nice staff, the lobby smells amazing but we definitely had a spooky encounter while we were there. "

"Overall 5 stars"

"The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful. The restaurant and bar were not open,but I was made aware prior to my stay, and the front desk staff made sure to let me know they could make recommendations if I needed any. The room was clean and the bed was comfy. Did the trick!"

"Great stay "
