Melrose Mansion in New Orleans

We hebben een heerlijke tijd gehad in dit romantische hotel. Heel gastvrij ontvangen door aardig en behulpzaam personeel. Het hotel zit op loopafstand van Bourbon street en Frenchmen street is 3 blokken de andere kant op. Parkeren van je auto kan problematisch zijn, het hotel heeft alleen een klein stukje stoep beschikbaar. Het ontbijt is aan de karige […] kant, maar in de buurt zijn genoeg leuke cafés om een ontbijtje te halen. Internet in het hotel werkte goed. Lees meer

Very friendly staff. Clean room. Comfortable bed. Close to Bourbon Street!

The Melrose was a beautiful place to stay! The staff at the desk, Melissa, was very friendly and so helpful in showing us around and recommending places to visit and to eat. The hotel was situated close to the French quarter but far enough away to be quiet and within easy walking distance for sightseeing. I definitely recommend it and would stay there […] again the next time we are able to visit New Orleans Lees meer

The staff was so welcoming! They happily stored our bags when we arrived early, gave us a map, made recommendations about restaurants, etc. Our room was lovely, complete with jetted tub and large shower. The hotel's location is perfect for anyone who wants to be close to the French Quarter without being in the midst of the party. We were thrilled that […] the Melrose hosted an evening wine & cheese and provided breakfast; Both were nice opportunities to chat with other quests. I felt so relaxed sitting near the pool or on the porch. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone who appreciates southern architecture and hospitality. Lees meer

Fantastic...unique setup. Staff was great. Rooms were fantastic. Only a couple of blocks to the french quarter. Would definitely recommend

Gecontroleerde Hotels.com gastenbeoordeling

Melrose was quite lovely. However, I found it irritating to discover I was being charged an amenities fee at the end of our stay, since we had not used any extra services and it was not expected. It would be better to be more upfront and add it to the room rental instead of at the end and have someone leave with a poor last impression.The breakfast […] could have been improved upon, the pastries were not wonderful and all the available cereals were sweetened. Fresh fruit would be a good addition. The wine and cheese could be available earlier in the evening or late afternoon. Lees meer

The buildings have been around for a LONG time, but they have been kept up and nicely renovated with a crisp, clean European feel. Our room was a suite, complete with dishwasher, stove, fridge, freezer, coffee maker, dishes, and even a washer and dryer. Seriously, I could live there!The hotel staff members are super-sweet, everything is clean, bed was […] extra comfy, breakfast was adequate, wine and cheese in the evenings is a nice touch, and the location is close enough to the action to walk, but not so close that you can't sleep from the street noise. Overall, we had a fantastic time, and we'll be back SOON! Lees meer

Not worth the price for the Master suite, however, I would stay again in a regular room.

Gecontroleerde Hotels.com gastenbeoordeling

I had a very good time in New Orleans and would recommend the Melrose Mansion with a caveat about the walk to the main French Quarter.

The hotel was a fantastic combination of character and comfort. We liked staying in a place with NOLA history instead of a standard hotel that could be the same in any city. There was nothing junior about our Junior Suite. Vaulted ceilings and a huge bathroom with soaker tub and separate shower. Luxurious! We did have to ask for a few items when we […] first arrived, which would have been in the room in a chain hotel, but the staff promptly accomodated our requests. The location, right on the edge of the French Quarter, was walking distance to most attractions and yet out of the fray of all-night partiers. I would go back in a heartbeat. Lees meer

I was excited about staying here but disappointed in the service and over-hyped amenities. It started before we even arrived as I had booked one of their Master Suites and specifically needed (due to a health condition) the room with the jacuzzi. You can request for this room but they won't guarantee it?! We did end up with the jacuzzi, but it wouldn't […] even fill up before running out of hot water! We also weren't greeted upon arrival. We arrived around 10 AM due to an early flight, and wanted to drop our luggage off so we could start enjoying the city. You would think we were making an unusual request and it was clear we were in the way. The "upgraded continental breakfast" is coffee, juice, yogurt and pastries. They were all good, but I'm not sure what makes this upgraded? Some hard-boiled eggs and some fruit would be a nice addition. They also don't tell you when breakfast is available or the wine/cheese they serve at night. A card in the room with these details would be a way to improve overall service. Finally, when we checked-out there wasn't even a simple "Thank you for staying with us" or "We hoped you enjoyed your stay." This was not what I had in mind for southern hospitality! Overall, however, we did enjoy ourselves. It's clean, well- designed, and the location was perfect. I just think there could be a few small efforts on the part of the staff to make you feel welcome. I think as long as you don't expect much for service you will enjoy your stay here. Lees meer

Melrose Mission was a wonderful place to stay, the staff was so friendly and helpful

Gecontroleerde Expedia gastenbeoordeling

We got to the Melrose Mansion for our first (and last) trip to NOLA and were impressed. It looked really nice and had a lot of charm. The young man working for the hotel that night was nice and helped us check in. The picture for the Napolean suite online is not what you are guaranteed. Our room was not the picture. However the Napolean suite #5 does […] have a small area to the front that seemed private, at first. We woke up to construction early every morning, the cleaning staff works outside of a room just outside the door, you also get the surprise of your stuff getting wet because the custodial staff sprays the doors with no seal down with a full throttle hose in the mornings. There arent covered walkways- so expect to get wet any time you need to navigate the hotel. There was an option to pay a high fee to park in a very small parking area (might be able to get 2 cars in the lot). We didnt go for that option. We parked just on the corner of Esplanade and Burgandy right outside the hotel, LEGALLY. We came back the next night to discover our car missing. It had been towed and impounded by the city that was hired by a production company, "Remember Sun", to relocate it. The Hotel staff was to notify all tenants to inform us of filming- because filming signs were not up like supposed to be 48hrs in advance. We spent hours trying to figure out where our car was, what was going on, and what to do. Nobody would give us any info or own up to this costly mistake [$175!!!]. Lees meer

We've been to New Orleans a half dozen times and stayed at different hotels and one BB. Melrose was enjoyable for a few reasons: the staff was extremely friendly and helpful; our large room, the Napolean, was great as it had lots of light and a small, but practical bathroom; the 10/15 minute walk to the heart of the French Quarter was peaceful. The […] continental breakfast wasn't much, but being in New Orleans there were lots and lots of great alternatives. We plan to stay at the Melrose the next time we visit the city. Lees meer

Since the hotel is located in a Mansion, it give you the feel of being at home versus feeling like you are staying in the average hotel. With that said, if you are looking for the frills of staying in a hotel then this bed and breakfast style place isn't for you. If you do however, like traveling and staying like a local while experience the little […] comforts of home, you will love this place. The hotel is not only beautiful, but very well maintained and clean especially since it was fairly recently renovated. The breakfast (cereal and muffins) and evening reception (wine and cheese) are something left to be desired but I will say everything was fresh and although nothing special tasted good considering. The staff was incredible. Everyone was extremely friendly, nice and accommodating. If you have any questions, just ask they are very willing and eager to help out and ensure you enjoy your stay. Although the mansion is located on the East side of the French Quarter, everything is still within reasonable walking distance and any outside areas are very accessible from the bus stop not too far away. The location allows you to enjoy the tranquility of the neighborhood with easy access to the madness of Bourbon Street and not have to deal with all the chaos at night if you do make it home to sleep. I loved my stay here and I can't wait to go back. Lees meer

If you enjoy visiting cities and staying just out of the tourist trap in a smaller bed and breakfast type hotel this is a great place to stay. I saw the owner of the hotel daily and he always asked how things were. The rooms were stylish and clean. There was fresh coffee every morning. The walk to the heart of the quarter and to frenchman street was […] easy, a mile or less. The bed could have been better but we survived. We don't care for large hotels and can't stand tourist traps to give some context. Lees meer

The hotel had a couple of glitches, hot water ran out the night we were there and we had to call down 3 times to get a blow dryer for my wife. The place is nice and yes we will give it another chance, staff was nice as they could be.

Wonderful time, only stayed one night but next time we will try to stay longer. Perfect location and elegant place. Parking worked out well for us (free street parking) but we were not out late and it was a Monday. There is a secured lot for $27.00/day but we were able to find a spot on the street in front of the building and walked everywhere we wanted […] to go. Close to everything. Lees meer

Napoleon Suite was super-spacious, charming, with a very very comforable bed and a fun marble shower. I regret not asking to see the fitness facility - a missed opportunity to explore more of the Mansion. The outdoor pool was clean and operational, even in January (tho sadly still too cold to swim). Complimentary wine and cheese was cute, appreciated […] but skippable. I was grateful to be accommodated for an early noon check-in. Street parking was easy to find on Esplanade. Great location: convenient walk to north half of FQ + Marigny and Frenchman St + French Market. Lees meer

we were very surprised to find that we needed to pay a $150 incidentals deposit. I was told it would be refunded in 3-5 days. The staff were ok. Wine and Cheese hour was very minimal.

Melrose Mansion was FANTASTIC. The staff is warm, friendly and personable. The mansion is exquisite and the rooms are wonderful with gorgeous details and features.

Sophisticated decor in beautiful restored New Orleans home. Sitting Room was a little sparse, and breakfast is more a quick morning snack.

Gecontroleerde Expedia gastenbeoordeling

Good location within easy walking distance of the Quarter. The rooms have been recently renovated and refurnished with a stark (almost austere) modern look. Don't expect any working counter or desk space. The bathroom was a bit cramped but very nice with new marble fixtures. The biggest challenge was parking, but that would be true in most hotels in […] this area. All parking is on the street. We stayed from Sunday to Wednesday and were able to park within one block most of the time. The area is safe so we never minded the walk. Lees meer

The hotel is a great old mansion that is absolutely beautiful. The rooms are amazing with high lofted ceilings and tiled bathrooms. The walls and floors are a little thin and you can hear some footsteps and floor creaking. Otherwise the hotel was fantastic and I gave it 5 stars for overall rating. However, the location could be a little better. It's […] walkable to all the French Quarter sights, but some locations are a little far. If the border of the french quarter is a square, the Melrose Mansion is in the upper right corner. Also, some of the places in the french quarter are a little scary at night. Lees meer

found an excellent deal at the last minute. Not in the French Quarter, but across the street. Great staff, room was awesome, clean, and close to everything in the Quarter.

The hotel was beautifully designed, with comfortable bedding and a nicely maintained pool and garden area. To a pair of really picky eyes, the room was not as clean as it could have been, but overall it was fine. The thing to love is feeling like you're staying in a gorgeously designed home while you soak up New Orleans culture.

I loved this hotel because it wasnt a generic room at the multi room chain. The staff was so friendly and attentive...gave us wonderful reccomendations on the surrounding neighborhood and even some local history. I would definitely reccomend this property for someone looking for some old world southern charm.

The hotel staff were friendly and helpful, the room was pleasant, the neighborhood not too touristy yet close to great venues & restaurants. The only thing annoying is that as in any large house turned hotel, you can hear people move about at all hours, especially the wee hours of the morning when you would rather not be woken.

The hotel is NOT in the French quarter, it is too scary to walk through the neighbor to try to get to the French Quarter area.
