Hotel Monteleone, New Orleans
WE loved staying there. The location is super central, the carousel and the lounge are interesting experiences and the creole restaurant’s food was really good, special attention to the bignets which were better than cafe du kinds and Loretta. We’d stay there again if we ever come back to town
