I recently stayed here for a mini vacation to New Orleans, and I was quite scared of what to expect of the reviews. Read bad & good... well here is the truth... 5 star service, clean, amazing, and the staff is amazing! While the hotel could upgrade mattresses, I had an amazing time. We had a master suite in the...

The staff was helpful with everything we asked for. The rooms were nice. Our Junior Suite had a jacuzzi tub and a spacious shower. They have a wine and cheese hour starting at 6:00 every evening. Nice. Although the have no parking we parked on the street right beside the Hotel for free with no problems. I had this trip... More

This hotel has been completely remodeled and has a lot of charm. It seems though like there are a few things that are missing, incomplete. The room was very spacious but seemed to be missing some furniture - we asked for an extra chair so we could sit down. The hotel would be amazing if they added a few small... More

Despite a couple of negative remarks about this hotel/B&B we decided to give it a try. It was fantastic. The location is very good for Bourbon st. and Frenchman st. Parking might be a bit troublesome but we could park the car right in front of the hotel. Renovations are almost done, we stayed in a junior suite which was... More

Stayed here for 2 nights on Nov 11th & 12th. I booked before reading comments on TripAdvisor so I was slightly worried about what I had let myself in for. My fears were unfounded. Refurbishment work had taken place recently but I did not see any work being done while I was there. The receptionist was very friendly and gaining... More

It's being rehabbed. Eventually it will be nice, but it is not there yet. The hotel is conveniently located on the north side of the French Quarter, away from the craziness if you want and walking distance to the craziness if you desire. No common area amenities, at least not now. Remodeled bathrooms, refinished floors and good firm beds. However,... More

If you are looking for luxury and 5 star service this is not the place for you. The pool is more for decoration, and this is bed and breakfast is not the room service type of place. This is the place to go if you dont like touristy hotels, you appreciate old charm and character. Based on looking at the... More

We stayed here for Mardi GRAS 2011, although it was a long walk to any parades on Canal this is a very pleasant place. We were lucky enough to stay in what was like a carriage house. It was very private in back of the main house. Located across the street is Port of Call which has the best hamburgers... More

My wife and i love the Melrose Mansion. It is very romantic. The location is great! I like that it is a small property (I estimate 15 rooms). We spent time by the pool and socialized with other guests during the complimentary wine and cheese in the afternoon before dinner. There was alot of construction going on during our stay,... More
