    Outdoor courtyard
    Patti C.

    Centrally located between Royale and Boutbon this hotel is perfect location in French quarter yet no noise once inside. Has a small pool, outside courtyard ,bar and gym . Rooms spacious and clean. Keycards often do not work on elevator but helpful staff will easily get you new one. Staff is friendly and helpful with quick check ins and out . Safe and well priced in this area

    Linens not changed

    This hotel was advertised with a bar/lounge, a pool with great seating. When we got there the bar was closed "for renovation", the pool and seating area was filthy. The ATM was out of money. If you use the sign to change the linens, they ignore it. The safe wouldn't open on our check out day so we have to wait until someone could come and open it. We informed the concierge it was our 30th anniversary and staying at the same hotel from our honeymoon. Didn't really expect anything and that that was exactly what we got.

    Pierre is the best. I will stay anywhere he is because he is truly a gem! He was so helpful. He was always in a good mood, just brightened our days. He is just such a good vibe. The other ladies were all friendly, gave us great suggestions, everyone was helpful! We got a room with a balcony and I highly recommend it. It's just to eat beignets on your balcony with coffee in the morning. The location is in the middle of the quarter, and we never missed anything. It was just perfect for walkability or just needing to run back to the room for something. With that being said, consider the noise, itsnot awful, but there are delivery trucks and honking in the mornings and bourbon street at night. Consider if you are a light sleeper! The shower pressure was good, it got really hot so we really enjoyed that! Towels are hotel towels, but they stock a lot in the rooms! They have hair dryers and make-up mirrors, which is cool! The only real downside we had was that there isn't a fridge, but it was probably good because it forced us to consider portion sizes when ordering places.

    Stayed at the Hotel Le Marais for one night after an evening in the French Quarter. The hotel was great. Very convenient, clean, and a nice room. This hotel is not directly on Bourbon Street, which is a good thing. Because Bourbon Street gets REALLY loud after dark. Even Hotel Le Marias had some late-night noise just because, well it's the French Quarter. But it was fine. The TV reception was terrible. All the channels were low def and pretty crappy. But honestly you probably won't watch too much TV in NoLa. We stayed in a Deluxe room (least expensive). The room was very nice with a comfy bed. Everything was clean and well kept. The hotel does not have a restaurant or bar. But those are not far away outside of the hotel. It does have a very pleasant outside patio (pictured below) which was a nice place to chill after an evening out. Overall, a nice place and a very good value. I would stay there again.

    My wife and I visited your hotel Le Marais from February 14th to February 19th for my 50th birthday celebration and stayed in room 206. We wanted to choose a hotel that was upscale, close to the strip with in house amenities but what we got was a very small room (Premium Room) and not one of the simplest amenities. If I was to give anything a good rating it would be the location and the staff. I also had 14 other people that joined us on our recommendation that were extremely disappointed. From the arrival we were greeted with extreme disappointment with the bar and being told that it had been closed since Covid but the website never mentioned any such thing, the outdoor area that was filthy, and the pool looks like a cesspool, to the reck of a premium suite that we paid extra for and smelt like gym socks as if the rugs had never been washed, to the elevator malfunctioning repeatedly, this hotel disappointed in every area that we could think of. The outdoor furniture is in horrible shape and was not cleaned and the indoor furniture was only slightly better. The draft in the half locking balcony in the premium room was brutal with the temperature dropping below 35 degrees outside it became a huge chore to warm the room and stay warm with the flimsy bedding. We did not even have a refrigerator or microwave to keep our food cold or to warm it up. There was not one microwave in the entire building from what we were told which is extremely unacceptable. We are extremely embarrassed because we chose what we thought was an upscale boutique hotel to host a milestone event and ALL of our guest were extremely dissatisfied with the accommodations. The hotels misrepresented its self in in publishing and I truly expected so much more from the J Collections brand. I have stayed at plenty of their hotels and this by far the worst experience that I have ever had. This was a once in a lifetime event that we spared no expense with, and with all the tragedy that we have experienced in the passing year, this was to be the moment where we forgot our heartache and sincerely enjoyed a moment. We did our best to overlook the obvious discrepancies and keep our guests entertained but the overwhelming feeling of "where did you bring us too" seemed to be the mantra for the week. Knowing that I was not the owner of the hotel, I still feel responsible as I was the spokesman for your establishment. None of this can I change. It is a moment in time that will forever be what it is and for that I am severely disappointed.

    Our May 2022 stay at the Hotel Le Marais was a great way to enjoy New Orleans and it's French Quarter. This small boutique hotel is truly close to the heart of all the Quarter's famous restaurants, bars, antique shops and historic buildings. Our top floor (5th) King room faced the courtyard and noise wasn't a big issue, it was furnished like a mid-range hotel with a small coffee maker (but no fridge), flat screen TV, good AC, good Wifi, good lighting, and very comfortable bed. All the staff we encountered were friendly. Rooms, fitness room, pool area, coffee bar, and lobby were usually kept clean as best as they could. No free breakfast (but Cafe Beignet with good food and coffee is less than a block down Royal towards Canal). There are large convention style chain and 5-star hotels up and down gritty and sketchy Canal Street ... we thought the intimacy and location of Hotel Le Marais is a much better and less expensive choice.

    uber time stamp - we were not in the room at 6:37. we were dropped off at the super dome at 5:53.

    When is the Vive bar reopening? Also - they used to have a breakfast buffet for guests. Do they still offer that?

    No breakfast buffet

    Are the double beds comforable for 2 adults to sleep in?

    Their doubles are as good as anyone else's. It really depends on what you are used to. If you're not sure, ask for a room with a queen-sized bed, which should be fine.

    Is this hotel close to bourbon street?

Every…read moreinteraction from the bell staff and front desk to the employees throughout the lobby was warm, welcoming, and genuinely memorable. One of my favorite moments was chatting with a gentleman in the lobby who helped with our luggage. We mentioned we were visiting from Pennsylvania, and he shared that his very first job was in Pennsylvania and actually knew our area. It was one of those authentic conversations that makes you feel more like a guest than just another room number. Our room in the older section was spacious, comfortable, and beautifully maintained. Housekeeping and the nightly turndown service were exceptional. We also spent plenty of time at the pool, where the staff and bartender were fantastic. The drinks were great, the food hit the spot, and the Fourth of July pop-up DJ made for a really fun afternoon. The service was so personal that one of the bartenders recognized us by name when we ran into her on the street a few days later. The only miss during our stay was the famous Carousel Bar. We never managed to get seats at the actual carousel during our four nights--which is understandable given how popular it is and being the 4th of July weekend. We did sit just behind it. Unfortunately, the service there was noticeably unfriendly and felt completely out of step with the incredible hospitality we experienced everywhere else in the hotel. That one experience wasn't enough to overshadow an otherwise outstanding stay. Between the beautiful historic décor, unbeatable French Quarter location, easy access to everything, and a staff that truly cares about its guests, Hotel Monteleone absolutely lived up to the hype. We'd stay here again in a heartbeat.

The 2 things I care most about when staying in a hotel is a comfortable night's rest and a good bathroom/shower. The bed in our room was the most uncomfortable mattress I have ever slept on in my entire life. It was so mushy that when you laid your head down, you sunk so far into it that your legs were literally 45 degrees above your head. I ended up sleeping upside down in the bed with my head where your feet go in order to feel even remotely comfortable. The pillows were all extremely flat, when you put your head on one it sank so far your face was about 1/2 inch from the mattress. I had to use 3 pillows stacked on each other. I had a stiff back, neck and joints the entire time we were there. The 2nd issue was hot water. The first morning, we attempted to shower, it only got barely luke warm for me and when my husband showered immediately after he only got ice cold water. We stopped at the front desk that morning on our way out for the day and told the woman at the front desk. She said she hadn't received any other complaints so it must be specific to our room and she would send engineering there to look at it. (we were getting hot water in the sink). Later that evening when we returned to our room, we immediately tested the shower again and it was still ice cold. So we went back to the front desk to check if engineering had come. We spoke to the same woman from the morning who acted like it was the first time we were telling her this and she said the exact same thing. I asked if they were going to come ASAP because we needed to shower soon and we couldn't take ice cold showers. She ignored my question and answered the ringing phone. A manager happened to be at the desk and overheard our conversation. He asked what our room number was and said that because of the old building and the pipes the hot water takes longer to get there. He said this was a KNOWN Issue by the staff, management and the owner. He told us to run the shower for AT LEAST 15 to 20 minutes, simultaneously with the sink and it should get hot. He also offered to move us to a different room but when I asked if he could guarantee if we wouldn't have the same problem in that room he couldn't give me a straight answer. We had already unpacked everything and didn't want to go through that hassle without a guarantee. So we went back to the room and let it run for 20 minutes and it eventually got hot. So for the remaining 3 mornings, we had to set our alarms for 30 minutes earlier so we could get up and run our shower before hand. For nearly $300 a night, we felt that this was ridiculous. Old building or not, if its a problem, then either don't put people in those rooms, or get it fixed somehow. Why should anyone be subjected to an ice old shower or an inconvenience to their time because the owner hasn't done anything about it? We visited the hotel Bar, the Bourbon O'bar 3 times during our stay and each time we received TERRIBLE service. None of the bartenders were friendly to us, in fact they were pretty rude. Each time it took them at least 10 minutes to even take our order (by standing there and looking at us and not saying anything). The bar was not busy or crowded any of these times. They would then start making one of our drinks, put it down and make other people's drinks, leave and go into a back room, play on their cell phone, talk to each other, or carry the glass around while doing other things. My husband ordered an old fashioned and the alcohol was sitting in the jar with the ice for over 5 minutes while the bartender carried it around doing other things, causing it to get watered down. When making a cocktail, it should be completed from start to finish without doing other things in the middle. I ordered the Mardi Drop cocktail on 2 different days. The first time, it was actually very good. The 2nd time from a different bartender it was horrible .He also sprinkled probably a tablespoon of cinnamon on top of it (which the first didn't have) which made it nearly undrinkable. I had to stir it into the martini in order to not get a mouthful of cinnamon with each sip. We didn't eat at the hotel restaurant Roux because of the bad Yelp reviews - we felt we could get a better breakfast elsewhere outside the hotel. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this hotel at all unless you don't care about being comfortable or friendly service.

But if you're there to party hard on Bourbon Street at all the touristy bars, then you will be in your element. Depending on the side of the hotel you select when booking your room and the days you choose, you may be able to get away with just a sound machine and earplugs, or you may be getting too old and need to look elsewhere. If you stay on the courtyard side, you should have enough barriers to deflect the nonstop barrage of noise coming from all the bars and clubs on Bourbon Street, especially between Bienville and St. Ann, on a Friday and Saturday night particularly. We had a room on the third floor with a balcony overlooking Bourbon Street that gave us a great view and the opportunity to enjoy wine and cocktails as the festivities picked up steam throughout the afternoons of our stay. The bed was wicked comfortable. The set of drawers had plenty of space to put clothes with a small fridge for keeping drinks cool and leftovers from spoiling. The closet space was ample and was able to fit all of our hang-up clothing and our suitcases. There was a nice lounge chair next to the desk to chill if you didn't want to sit on the balcony. However, the bathroom was cramped and narrow with these weird double doors that could cause trouble if you are going to do business in the middle of the night. The water pressure wasn't great either and if you don't have the curtain positioned right then you're going to have a puddle. Housekeeping did come by to change our linens and provide fresh towels every day, which was appreciated. The front desk was very affable and accommodating, especially with holding out luggage when our room wasn't quite ready yet to check-in. And I liked that there was a security person checking people that were actually staying at the hotel to avoid stragglers, random drunks, and transients from entering. I didn't have the chance to use the pool while I was there, but we were busy walking around the French Quarter to really care. Same went with having anything in the restaurant for food. They did have the little mini mart on the ground floor that worked for when we needed more bottles of water that were larger than the complimentary ones. Accommodations at the hotel were solid, but just know if you stay here, you're experiencing the full Bourbon Street treatment. It is always loud at night, especially, on the weekends.
