New Orleans hotels near Louisiana Children's Museum

Pros: The Hotel Monteleone is an outstanding property. We were pleasantly surprised with our King room. It was small, but very comfortable and tastefully decorated. The hotel bar is one of its trademarks. We enjoyed the carousel and the intimacy that it brings, all the while being able to chat with some of the other patrons. I had a 30 minute massage at the Spa Aria. The masseuse (Ellen) was excellent and very knowledgeable. The spa lobby was a bit overly crammed with merchandise for sale, but smelled great and had good attention at their front desk.

Pros: We have always wanted to stay at the Hotel Monteleone. Since we were traveling to New Orleans with friends from Ohio who have never been to the south, we decided to splurge. The experience and treatment we received during our stay was far above my expectations. Upon arrival we were greeted and assisted by the valet, doorman, and bellman. While speaking to the man during check in, my husband asked if a king upgrade was available. He then moved us to a king room complimentary. Our room was so nice with custom items making the stay extra special. We wanted dinner suggestions and some tour suggestions. The concierge, Anita, was great! She was very patient and knowledgeable of the area. She could tailor her suggestions to your specific requests. She was very great with multi-tasking and never once made us feel rushed on a decision. When one of the tours we wanted to book was sold out, she called 3 other vendors until she found an opening. The staff at Hotel Monteleone are all very friendly and speak everytime they see you. Even a lady from housekeeping stopped to ask how we were enjoying our stay. The location is central to EVERYTHING. When in New Orleans, we typically walk 8-10 miles per day, but Hotel Monteleone is so close we averaged 4-5 miles. This hotel is definitely worth the price.

Pros: Gorgeous, luxurious, elegant decor and accommodations Five-star service Carousel Bar and Lounge is not to be missed We didn't have the opportunity to try Criollo restaurant, but the menu looked excellent Beautiful rooftop pool with unbeatable views of the city Large gym with views of the river OUTSTANDING location right in the heart of the French Quarter Love, love, love this hotel. Do yourself a favor and don't consider ANYWHERE else but Hotel Monteleone if you're coming to New Orleans.

Pros: Excellent service. Doormen were friendly and engaging; they greeted my two young children with our every entrance/exit and asked them about the activities in between, made some fun suggestions for meals and places of interest to visit- really added to the experience for each of the kids. Small rooms, but comfortable, good noise control - was not disturbed despite business of lobby and hallways. Beautiful foyer and delicious menu at Criollo, the restaurant downstairs. Will certainly return to this hotel for its service, comfort, attractiveness and convenient location.

Pros: Location

Pros: - The location was in perfect proximity to the French Quarter (in the French Quarter) on the gorgeous Royal St which is, in my experience, the prettiest street in the French Quarter - There are ample antique shops, art galleries, restaurants, jazz clubs and cafes nearby - The hotel is exceptionally lovely, very clean and well-maintained - The rotating carousel bar on the first floor is fabulous with a great jazz band on Saturday nights. - Rooftop pool is gorgeous but was always full - The Spa sounded fantastic

Pros: Location.. minutes walk from Bourbon St. and Canal St.

Pros: Overall, the facility was gorgeous. The beds were very comfortable, the room was clean, the pool was beautiful and atmospheric, but the service left too much to be desired. When we called to the front desk for assistance of any kind, we were met with tones of condescension. Almost as if asking for a room service menu, as are room had none, or ordering room service was a bother to them. We waited an hour for a Cobb salad to be delivered, only to find that it was missing bacon, egg, and avocado...practically half the salad! For the price of the salad, I expected so much more. I certainly could have called to notify them of the issue, but after having waited at long we did want to waste more time. Apart from the lack of care for customer satisfaction dealt out by the front desk, we also ran into issues with the bell man. At first, he offered to look out for our scheduled taxi, while we waited inside. But, we soon realized that he wasn't going to follow through on his offer as he was standing inside chatting it up with a co-worker as time came for our taxi to arrive. So, we got up and went to look for it ourselves. This is not to say that all of the customer service personnel were lacking. There were certain individuals who were kind, friendly, and attentive to our needs. But, I would say by and far that customer satisfaction is not apparent by their services rendered. If you're looking to feel like you as a customer and a person matters, then stay far away from Hotel Monteleone. If you're looking for a beautiful place to stay, then by all means, book that room!

Pros: Hotel Monteleone is a beautiful historic hotel in the French Quarter and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay there. The rooms are quiet and comfortable and the rooftop pool was a nice perk!

Pros: Great history and location. Great rooftop pool. Bar was "cool" with the carousel, I got a little dizzy and had to step off! Very nice!

Pros: The location is right in the heart of the French Quarter just a block off Bourbon Street and on the classier Royal Street. The décor is beautiful. The rooms are small but nicely decorated. The drapes were incredible. The cafe are the hotel was very good for breakfast with beignets as good, if not better than Cafe du Monde without the crowds.

Pros: The hotel was great. I travel a lot and this was one of the nicer places I have been.

Pros: Beautiful, totally updated and high tech. Not overly luxurious but nice and super comfy rooms. Great gym facility and pool looked nice but we didn't venture down there. Can get busy with conferences and hear it's busy during football home games. Decent location if you don't mind walking. Street car stops right outside hotel which is mostly convenient unless it's running late or comes early. If it's busy (people buying tix, traffic) it can take a while longer than anticipated to get to your destination. We walked back from the French Quarter a few times...not a bad walk, probably around a mile. The location was fine for us but may not be for everyone. For the great rate we got for the amenities, the trade offs were worth it. All staff members were super nice, super accommodating and seemed to genuinely enjoy their jobs.

Pros: Nice modern hotel

Pros: The room was very comfortable to be in. The bed was comfy and lighting was calming. Very little hallway noise and never heard the neighboring rooms. All the staff I encountered was friendly and courteous.

The room itself was nice and large and came equipped with a coffee maker and small fridge. Bathroom could use some updating (tub/shower) but was certainly adequate with decent amount of counter space. We didn't eat in the onsite restaurant, but did have cocktails and snacks at the bar. Great time there with drinks made to order and delicious small plates to share. The bar staff were friendly, served impeccable drinks and couldn't have been more accommodating. Hotel also has a Starbucks inside with full service and selection as you would find in an offsite Starbucks store. Loved our stay at the Marriott on Canal Street and can't wait to return!!

Try a balcony room and go down to one of the bars for a signature New Orleans cocktail. It's 2 blocks from Canal and 3 blocks from Famous Bourbon Street. It's also perfectly located for catching games and events at the super dome. Bout 3-5 blocks. Not a bad walk at all. It's where I stay when I go to watch the Saints
