Hotel Monteleone, New Orleans
"First time in New Orleans and this hotel was perfect. Very elegant and centrally located to everything you want to do in the French Quarter. Only downside is the rooms are on the smaller side but everything about this hotel was great. Will definitely be staying here next time I visit"

AC Hotel by Marriott New Orleans French Quarter
"This was a very clean hotel and walking distance to mini restaurants. The only thing I’d have to say about this hotel is that the walls are paper thin and you can hear everything around you causing us not to get much sleep the one night we stayed there."
