The location is perfect for walking everywhere. Parking is $50/day behind a gate. The hotel was overall really dirty. Our bedding was dirty and we had to have it changed. Bathroom hadn’t been cleaned. Coffee bar is advertised but is just one coffee pot with powdered creamer and sugar packets. Late night you hear partying from bourbon street. I would not stay here again if I brought a family.

We choose this property due to it's central location. Room size is ok, however the flor was a little dirty. Nice bathroom with large shower. Ac was really good.
Oddly there only one chair not two Fridge, Not even a standard fridge but a micro fridge sat right at the floor so you have to bend down. A little table 2 or 3 ft would help, but there should really be a regular fridge.
No water In the room, you had to go to reception and a request water. So we bought our own.

Next, the TV was not turning on when we arrived. Maintain guy came twice and we learning how he did it, so we could do it ourselves.

My wife got a stomach bug and had to use the restroom a lot and the toilet was clogged upland we called front desk to have it sorted.

We called 3 time for it and then I went down to reception to tell them and I needed to use a bathroom myself plus my wife still needed it.
I was told that there was no public bathroom in the lobby, OK then we will check out now. Then the receptionist opened the door to the bar and let me use the bathroom there. Wemhen ilI got back to our room they had solved the clogged with plunger.
The bar is only open a few hours so we never bothered to visit.

There is no breakfast only coffee available between 07 to 10 AM. Not at all during the day.

The small pool on the back had \" foggy\" unclear water, compared to our own pool at our house. So we avoided it.
We travel extensively, but this was the most unsatisfactory experience in a long time

I had a lovely time and the place is incredible. If you like history, check it out. Incredibly polite staff. After my stay was over, I called very early one morning to ask about a charge on my card I had misinterpreted and the individual I spoke to was very helpful and kind. I knew about the charge I had just thought it had already come out and I was wrong. So I apologize to the individual who answered my call at 4am. Sorry about that. Your help calmed my nerves. This place rules.
Thank you,

My very first stay in the French Quarter and I was not disappointed at all. I pulled up to the self-parking in the back of the hotel which is gated and secure. Went in through the back entrance, nice courtyard and pool. Lobby had a bar off to the side, friendly staff that welcomed me and had my room ready. My room was extra large, with a balcony and all of the amenities needed. Very satisfied and kept remarking to my daughter how nice the room was. She sprawled out on the bed first thing so I can't share the pic, but to see her embrace the room was touching. Amazing place to stay and sweetened with the price...they definitely could charge more. Thankful to have stayed here and had this hotel be my first New Orleans experience was well worth it!

The rooms were pretty nice, especially considering the price. Awesome location. It's in the quiet, more residential side of the French quarter and only three blocks from Frenchmen street, so it was great place to catch some r&r while close enough to walk anywhere. Only two blocks from the riverside streetcar station, the jazz museum, and the French market. Comfy beds. Nice, helpful staff. The pool was a bit too funky for my taste, which is too bad because the courtyard seating looked like a nice place to chill. There was a sticky floor in the lobby for a couple days before it finally got cleaned, and even though we got a king suite that had a kitchen area, there was a fridge, but no microwave. There was free coffee in the lounge area every morning, but no breakfast. Overall, it was a cheap and comfortable place to crash while we explored the French quarter for a few days. I would have no problems staying here again.

Although this hotel was an excellent location, the rooms are so poorly insulated that you can hear everything that goes on in the room next-door. You can hear your neighbors alarm, their TV, as well as their conversation and any other noise that comes through, including the flushing toilet. Unfortunately, at this hotel ongoing parties are what you’re usually going to hear inside. From staff and guest running up and down the hallway, slamming doors nonstop 24 seven there will be no sleep. The pool looks nothing like the photos and is not something you’re going to want to get your body inside. The furniture around the pool looks like something you find alongside the road. If you’re looking for a place, you’ll feel safe and comfortable. This is not a hotel for you. When I was greeted at the hotel they wouldn't even let me use a bathroom! This is after flying 6 hours and a 40 min Uber ride. Not a friendly staff at all, at least to a lone female traveler.

The location was another huge plus. It's within walking distance of Bourbon Street, the French Quarter, plenty of restaurants, and bus stops that made it easy to get to other tourist attractions. It was so convenient to be able to explore the city without needing to drive.
Overall, I really enjoyed my stay and would definitely recommend Le Richelieu Hotel to anyone visiting New Orleans.

This hotel has been around since 1902, and honestly, that's part of its charm. If you're expecting a brand-new, glass-and-steel luxury hotel, this probably isn't your place. If you appreciate history and character, you'll likely enjoy it.

Just remember: no amount of modern upgrades can change the fact that the building is over a century old. They *can*, however, make it a comfortable place to stay—and I thought they did a good job of that.

The only real disappointment for me was the morning coffee service. Let's just say... it successfully confirmed I was awake, but that's about the nicest thing I can say.

My travel partner absolutely loved the swimming pool, and the location was another big plus. We were able to walk to many of the local attractions, which made exploring the area easy and enjoyable.

Would I stay here again? Absolutely. Sometimes a hotel doesn't have to be perfect—it just has to have personality, a great location, and enough charm to make you smile. This one checked those boxes for me.

Clean room, right in the French quarter. They advertise breakfast at the pool but upon inquiry I was told there isn’t, despite showing staff the Expedia listing. The woman was rude and I accommodating - later I receive a twilio text accusing me of violence against staff, which is not true and defamation per se. THE WOMAN ACCUSED ME OF VIOLENCE BECAUSE I ASKED ABOUT BREAKFAST - LET THAT SINK IN. I’ll be talking with a lawyer since the threat of being accused of violence by staff is a very serious thing. I’ll also be contacting NOPD and study their laws on this to press charges if I can.
