I did not get the room that was shown in the picture when I booked it on Expedia. It was much smaller and it had no heat/ac in the bathroom. It was about 40 degrees in the bathroom which is very cold when you wake up at 4:30am to walk into the bathroom barefoot on the almost frozen marble floor. I will say that Kiki at the front was extremely nice and helpful and she does an excellent job. I would go back again, but I want to be guaranteed the room that I was shown online that I thought I was getting. Would not stay in that room I was put in again.

Overall , the place was in a good location to walk over to the French Quarters. Staff was friendly and informative on place around the neighborhood and things to do in the city. Breakfast is a light breakfast (Coffee, protein bars and fruit) The needs to be a few updates to property like lighting and door locks.

An amazing value for the rate. A short walk from Frenchman street and the Quarter in one direction, a slightly longer walk the other direction to the amazing NOMA Sculpture garden and St Louis Cemetery 3. Clean, quiet, with a relaxing pool and hot tub out back. Rooms are small but well appointed, and the bed was crazy comfortable.

Loved staying at Rathbone Mansions. It was so charming and clean and bed was really comfortable. It had a nice big shower and had a heater in the bathroom too! It was also in walking distance to Port of Call, our favorite burger in New Orleans!

The property is quite old and updates have been made. Our room was comfortable and clean. The door to an upper back entrance was supposed to be closed at all times. However, the door would not close tight. Important to know that there are no elevator and the stairs are many.

I liked the location to downtown and the historic aspect. I wish could have stayed in one of inside entrance rooms versus an outside entrance room to get the historical ambiance.

First time in Nola

The listing for the hotel does not explain that there are two buildings across the street from one another. Additionally you receive an email from the hotel telling you to call in to reserve for parking and for early check-in. You do not need to reserve parking because you may end up in a building that's not even near the parking. There is also plenty of street parking. Additionally the first room we were given the AC did not work and the attendant did not know how the AC worked. She also did not proactively suggest that we go to another room instead she took time to try to figure out how to turn the AC on which we already had done so before she came into the room. After we had asked to be switched to another room she did oblige. However at that point it was past the early check-in window. We then had to request for a refund of the early check in fee instead of it being proactively offered to be refunded. The hotel was safe. I liked how it was gated with a code. It was also only a 5 to 10 min uber ride to the french quarter.
