MONTELEONE HOTEL

My absolutely favourite hotel during our 8 days and 4 hotel stay in the deep south. We stayed 2 nights at this hotel, and were part of a 48 person tour group all staying and travelling together. Hotel staff were courteous and efficient and I enjoyed my interactions with them. When our group arrived after a long journey from Buffalo, we were greeted with cookies and lemonade in a private room.

The hotel is gorgeous and I took lots of photos. Lots of pieces of historical artifacts and beautiful decor. Our room was amazing, we had a king bed, beautiful colours, very comfortable and we enjoyed the smart lighting.

The location is perfect, with a short walk to Bourbon Street and lots of places to check out. Lots of food and music options nearby, a really nice vibe!

We had 2 breakfasts included in our package, which I heard were very expensive. The food was tasty, plentiful and came out in good time.

The room was equipped with several toiletries, which was appreciated.

I would highly recommend this hotel based on the historic vibe, location, decor, comfort and service, great job to all!!!

After our first stay a year ago, we eagerly anticipated our return to the The Hotel Monteleone. We would not consider staying anywhere else now. The history, legacy, location, and staff are exemplary. I love the ambience of the hotel, which I might add, is maintained meticulously. As a Facility Manager, I notice the small details, and this Hotel passes with flying colors. The Lobby is comfortable and inviting, and a perfect place to just sit and watch the hustle and bustle of a 5 star hotel in action.
We must mention the wonderful service provided by Chris at the Front Desk; our outstanding Housekeeper, Reina; and Doorman, Duane.
We love the Carousel Bar and Lounge, and maybe one of these years we'll actually get a seat at the Carousel Bar! (It opens at 11am, with a line waiting, and seems to never have an open seat. It deserves the popularity. One last thing, the Hotel is in a prefect location within the French Quarter, and is easily walking distance to two of our favorite restaurants, Cafe Fleur de Lis on Chartres for Breakfast, and Deanie's for Dinner on Iberville. Also, a 5 minute bus ride (from Canal St.) to the National WWII Museum, a must see! See you in '25!

Honestly would have been great had not for 1 night the alarms went off and forced everyone on our floor to evacuate and not use the elevator. Mind you we were on the 15th floor so it took a while to get down those stairs.
As safety comes first I wasnt upset about this happening until it kept happening all night. Once at 12:30ish, again at 4:30ish and again at 7:30ish. I didnt get any sleep that night.

If I could give this place 100 stars I would. I've stayed all over the world in some of the finest hotels, this one tops the list! From the moment you walk in you feel like royalty from the beauty of the hotel itself and the exceptional staff you'll never want to check out. The suite we had was beautiful and housekeeping was impeccable. Management was superb and even when I thought there was an issue which was my mistake and not theirs they went out of their way to ensure I was satisfied. I would definitely come back here and stay every time! The carousel bar was just so much fun and the food was delicious! If you haven't stayed here you are missing out on one of the finest experiences you may ever have!

Best hotel we have ever stayed in. Would love to return.
