Pros (+) Quiet, away from the crowds of Bourbon Street. Great staff! Walking distance to just about anywhere.
Cons (-) It is an old and historic building, but the bathroom fixtures could use some updating. Doesn’t have the amenities some big hotel chains have-spa, gym-they won’t be missed.
Pros (+) The location was great and from the outside it looked really nice.
Cons (-) The room smelled bad. There was no view from the window ghat seemed almost to break off. There was were multiple bugs inside the bathroom. And the bed was awful; it caved in the middle and the springs were obnoxiously loud.
Pros (+) We liked everything, and everyone was nice except for one guy on staff at the counter on the morning of tuesday July 11th.
Cons (-) On the morning of Tuesday July 11th we stopped by the counter and asked the guy there, didn't know his name but he was maybe in his late 20's or early 30's. we had asked him about some directions on your area map that you guys hand out, we pointed out what looked like a street and asked him what was the name of the street and instead of politely saying this is not a street, his remark was, no it's...

Pros (+) Bar staff great
Cons (-) Wifi was not available which should not happen Rooms do not have Ethernet so working was not possible
Pros (+) The staff was incredibly lovely! They were super helpful with events going on in the Quarter, and the hotel itself is a perfect location! We had amazingly comfy king bed with a gorgeous shared balcony off the back. I loved that among the bathroom amenities that they included a makeup remover toilet! That was truly a life saver after a long night of great music and libations in the neighborhood. We...
Cons (-) The bathroom was a touch out dated for those that mind, but we certainly didn't! :)

Pros (+) Once we complained about the room we were upgraded to a beautiful room. The one we were expecting.
Cons (-) Had to complain to get a room that was even tolerable. Would have liked to get a nice room from the start rather than feeling like we had to complain to have a good experience on vacation.
Pros (+) i've been coming to the Richelieu for years, and it's still my favorite hotel in New Orleans. All that New Orleans is: classic, faded, fun, vibey, and somewhat inexplicable :)
Pros (+) The gentlemen who ran the kitchen and bar were the nicest men I've ever met! They are family now especially mr. Don
Cons (-) The short, Hispanic woman at the desk had an attitude.
