Hotel Monteleone

New Orleans, Louisiana

4 stars

This is not just one of New Orleans finest hotels, this is a film set – movies such as Double Jeopardy with Tommy Lee Jones and The Last Time with Michael Keaton have been filmed here. It has been said, time and time again, that the French Quarter begins in the lobby of the Monteleone and it truly does, capturing the very essence of what makes New Orleans so very special. A member of the Historic Hotels of America, you will adore your stay here, revelling in a grandeur only the Deep South can provide, and traditional decor within your room that adds a timeless touch to your stay. However, the hotel has also recently renovated rooms within the Iberville Tower if you are looking for some calmer colours. Admire stunning views from the sundeck surrounding the rooftop swimming pool, a truly blissful place to chill out, cocktail in hand and a good book beside you. At night, your starting point should be the Carousel Bar & Lounge - this has been the most celebrated bar in New Orleans since 1949, and it's still spinning, quite literally. Don't worry, the rotation is very subtle so you can still enjoy your classic cocktail at ease!

“Would stay again!”

Apr 13, 2026ktsweets

We had a great stay overall, based on the amazing friendliness of the staff, cleanliness, location, and amenities. We booked multiple rooms in the Iberville Tower for ourselves and extended family (one king suite, one double suite, and two king rooms), and it worked out really well having everyone on the same floor. The only real downside was the view from our room (1527), and it was honestly awful. The bedroom window was small (none in the living area), appeared to be painted shut, and the view was basically pipes, a wall, and the hallway of the next building (see photo). Meanwhile, two of the other rooms in our group (1532 and 1533), just down the hall, had large windows, river views, and lots of natural light. I am guessing that all the rooms in the Iberville tower that end in -27 or -29 have similar views. I do think if the views vary that much, it would be helpful if there were some sort of “no view” or “obstructed view” designation (or pricing difference) so you know what to expect. That said, my husband did point out that we had a direct view into the 14th floor hallway of the Bienville Tower—which is supposedly haunted—so if that’s your thing, maybe it’s a bonus! Everything else was great. The staff were all incredibly nice, the hotel itself is beautiful—historic with really nice modern touches—and everything was very clean. Elevators were quick, suites (especially with the extra half bath) were a great size, and room service was prompt and good. The view of the city from the pool at night was beautiful, as was the pool area. And as everyone mentions, the location is perfect. Overall, we would definitely stay again… just hopefully in a room with a better view next time.

“Great time!”

My husband and I took our kids who are 16 and 11 for spring break to the hotel monteleone! We had a great time and we were offered an upgrade to our room, which I would definitely recommend. We went from just a two bed room to a suite. Having more space and two bathrooms was definitely nicer than sharing a smaller space with the four of us. The staff was very friendly and helpful, our rooms were always beautifully and thoughtfully made up when they came and cleaned, and my kids loved the turn down service at night. My husband and I were able to get two seats at the Carnival bar, it was a weekday so not too busy. The bartenders were great, very helpful and made great drinks! Our last night we ate at the Criollo restaurant, it was delicious. They had great service and presentation! We loved the location of the hotel, it was just far enough away from the hustle of bourbon street, but all within walking distance of everything! We would definitely recommend this hotel to others and probably would stay again!

“Magnificent hotel in the heart of the French Quarter”

This historic hotel has a beautiful lobby. The service was great. We were able to check in early. The location is right in the heart of the French Quarter.
