Romantic Hotels in New Orleans

Location was great. Just a few blocks from the craziness of Bourbon St. Also beside green street car to Garden district and Hop on Hop off bus. What made the holiday were the staff. From check in, we were warmly welcomed and that hospitality lasted throughout our stay. Every one of thier staff members would bend over backwards to accommodate you or just say hello when passing. It was truly exceptional. From Patrick at breakfast to Renaldo at reception, they always had time for us. I have stayed in top 5 star hotels that have not managed that level of hospitality. The drinks and evening snacks where of a very high standard, as was the breakfast. We were on a 3 week tour of different US States and staying in 6 different hotels, this was by far our favourite.

Large room, super comfy bed and pillows, big window with a view. Well located.

The location was perfect to access the whole of the french quarter on foot! You could easily go further on the street cars if you wanted to. The room was large and had everything we required. Outside was a wonderful courtyard, a pool and jacuzzi that were great. The cleaning staff were amazing 🤩

Great location , lovely large clean room , lovely reception area . A*****

We loved this hotel. Quiet, clean, comfortable and the most ideal location. Everything was a very short walk away. Even closer than the closed down hotel we used to stay

Didn't do breakfast this time. Will attempt next time in town. Family time the reason.

Great location..beautiful old hotel.Has an old world charm.

Dream location for New Orleans with history and great staff, friendly informative, big thanks to Chris and colleagues at the front desk.

This location exceeded my expectations. The house was beautiful and in a great location. The staff was very friendly and flexible. I'm so glad we found this gem.

We had an amazing stay at The Mercantile. Donna, Marlon and the front office staff were super helpful - from check-in to check-out - not one thing to fault over a 7 day stay. Staff always willing to give us tips on best places to go and happy to just chat with us about their city! The young lady who did the evening shift finishing at 11pm and lived across the river (I’m sorry I didn’t get her name) but what an angel - amazing customer service - thanks so much! The two ladies who run the kitchen and put out breakfasts daily - excellent layout of a hot and cold breakfast with little extras - fresh fruit, bottled water and little name tags for the different food items -Ladies, it’s all in the tiny detail, much appreciated - Thankyou!! Wonderful conversations too! The hotel itself looks like the pictures online and for us felt just like home. We had room service with fresh towels mid stay, coffee machine, bar fridge and microwave all worked fine, bed very comfortable and we just turned off the heating system if the room got too warm (once or twice during our stay). We had a little lounge space with a sitting area and record player but we rarely used the space although we did play a few records on arrival which was quirky and cool. The hotel is in a quiet and safe area with close proximity to the French Markets, Frenchman’s Street, shopping outlet, the National WWII Museum (all walking distance) and the street car on Canal St and the bus route for Magazine St is not far at all. Lots of eateries nearby too. We opted not to get a rental car and didn’t miss / need a car at all during our stay. Tour buses will pick / drop from hotel. If you’re looking for a glitzy, over the top experience, then the Mercantile is not it but if you’re after authentic, warm and genuine hospitality in a cosy and attractive environment in a quiet but convenient location, this is your place. Thanks again y’all, we hope to be back soon ❤️
