Close to Frenchmen Street by cool and quiet

The room was huge and had a huge bathroom and shower. On a hot August day, the room was cool. Though we were only a block away from some of the best music venues in the city, the room was very quiet. The bed was large and comfortable. I will stay here again because it was such a lovely place.

We had a little hiccup with our initial room but was quickly transferred to a suite at no up charge by the professional and wonderful front desk staff. It’s a historic property so there were a few very minor things that are expected at such a property and they were not problematic issues at all in our second room. Then my flight got cancelled by the airline and I needed to stay another day. Carol is incredible, understanding, and made it possible for us to stay in our same suite. She even came to our room to give us updated keys instead of having me go to the front desk when I was dealing with rebooking my cancelled flight. Highly recommend. The proximity to Esplanade area and Frenchmen Street can’t be beat. The suite was large and comfortable. I will stay at this hotel again on my next trip. The marigny location is so much more enjoyable to me than the French quarter but it’s right by the quarter when I want or need to be there. Best of both worlds. This is a great hotel and I’m glad I found it! If you like a less touristy experience and being immersed in a lovely, quiet area that’s close enough to everything, this is that hotel. I can’t recommend it enough!

I recently stayed at this vintage boutique hotel, and it was a total delight. Tucked away on a quiet street, the hotel had a faded elegance that made me feel at home right away. Directly behind Frenchmen Street, it is within walking distance of some of the best jazz spots and a few good eateries.

Good location! The property is outdated, I get the old vibe and it’s nice, but they should add practical appliances like microwave and mini fridge to the rooms. And the air conditioning should be fixed or changed for a bigger unit because the it does not cool enough, especially like the big room we stayed in.

Lamothe is close to ALL the action: Frenchmen, French Market, Bourbon st, canal for public transportation. The pool is open all night for an even dip. And the staff is wonderful! Nothing is too much trouble for them.

Amazing staff and gorgeous hotel

An absolutely lovely hotel. The room was very spacious and air conditioned. The staff went above and beyond expectations with their helpfulness - we cannot thank Palestine Riles enough! We would recommend this hotel to everyone - it is situated in the French district and very close to Frenchmen Street where we enjoyed many music sessions and lovely food. Thank you for everything!

Book with caution

We got there and they casually mentioned they were changing our room due to lack of AC. Took us to a room with one bed (our reservation was for two beds), then switched us to a room with two beds at my insistence. AC did not work in that room either. Mentioned it to staff who didn’t say anything in response. Manager was nice, but staff had no customer service skills. No mention of WiFi or ice. Good location, rooms were lovely, but not very comfortable. Manager took off parking fee for inconvenience.
