This hotel's location is great. Close enough to get to the French Quarter or Audubon Park, quickly, via cab or street car, yet far enough removed from the crazy energy of the quarter to relax. The St Charles Garden District location is very pretty and enjoyable. The pool was pretty and a pleasant place to relax. The rooms are spacious, especially as compared to some of the rooms in New Orleans. Service, cleanliness, and setting are all very nice.

This a a fine hotel for those who do not use a fitness facility. The staff are exceptional. The rooms and entire hotel are spotlessly clean. Room service is prompt and efficient. The primary - and really only - drawback is the lack any fitness facility. Even a small room with weights and benches would be welcome.
