The Rathbone Mansions are two stately antebellum mansions along Esplanade Avenue bordering the French Quarter. We offer our guests warm southern hospitality and authentic New Orleans atmosphere. The Mansion at 1244 Esplanade features a pool and hot tub, available to guests at either Mansion. The Mansion at 1227 Esplanade has a beautiful garden with comfortable seating to take in the lush surroundings. The Mansions are located diagonally across the street from one another, about 100 steps apart.
Enjoy watching life go by on stately Esplanade Avenue from the large front porch featured at both properties. We look forward to welcoming you and making your New Orleans visit everything you expect it to be.
Experience true New Orleans charm in our Louis Armstrong Suite with an oversized, private balcony overlooking tree-lined Esplanade Avenue.

Toiletries by Beekman 1802, coffee makers, hair dryer, iron and ironing board are provided in all rooms. With access to the pool and hot tub, the Louis Armstrong Suite is the perfect place to rest your head during a stay in New Orleans. Free high speed wireless internet is included.
