Old Ursuline Convent

I stayed at the Royal Frenchmen Hotel and Bar with my dad during a last-minute trip to New Orleans. We booked an ADA room, which was affordable and met our needs after his knee replacement. Overall, the stay was decent—not terrible, but not the best either. The location is great if you love nightlife and jazz—right on the edge of lively Frenchmen Street, with live music both outside and inside the hotel. However, the nightly jazz performances make it difficult for light sleepers to get a full night’s rest. The lobby has charm but could use some maintenance and deep cleaning. Our room had a stale smell when we entered. While the bedding was clean, the stained desk chair and curtains, lack of luggage space, no full-length mirror, and a burned-out bathroom bulb brought the experience down a notch. There are also no windows to look out of in the street-level room, and noise from outside was constant. The courtyard was a nice touch, and rooms with balconies facing it might offer a better stay. I wouldn’t stay here again personally due to the location not matching my preferences, but I would recommend it to those who enjoy live jazz and a lively, late-night atmosphere.

Friendly staff, love the aesthetics of the hotel and location is great!!

Facilities and location were fantastic
