Star Service "One of the most intimate choices in the Quarter, composed of one- and two-bedroom cottages arranged around what is claimed to be New Orleans' oldest pool, set in a refurbished sculpture garden." Full review
Gayot "With just seven private cottages (including the former residence of John James Audubon), this lovely inn offers guests an intimate, personal and very private New Orleans experience."

Frommer's "An unmarked gate and leaf-canopied pathway lead to seven ultra-private one- and two-bedroom cottages with a large courtyard...each is gracefully but not overly antiqued amid gorgeous brick walls" Full review

Gayot "This hotel is just three blocks from the tourist-crammed French Quarter and within shouting distance of the always-booked Ernest N. Morial Convention Center."
BlackBook "Hotel suites with exposed brick may not be something you're used to, but it's part of that N'awlins flavor."
Fodor's "This is a good alternative to the huge convention hotels; you're just steps from the major downtown attractions and the Convention Center, and Harrah's New Orleans Casino is a five-minute walk." Full review
Star Service "It provides a vintage warehouselike atmosphere that runs counter to the cool corporate look of the neighboring commercial giants hereabouts." Full review

"Much of the hotel still retains historic elements from the building's 19th-century past, including brick walls, wood-plank floors, and exposed piping." Full review
Travel + Leisure "This new addition to the Central Business/Arts District is certainly helping to tempt guests out of their beloved French Quarter." Full review
Jetsetter "A unique boutique gem in a historic Big Easy building, with an art-centric cultural bent." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
"Artistic leanings, innovative cuisine and bohemian flair converge in this Central Business District property." Full review
Mr & Mrs Smith "This stylish stay has become something of a neighbourhood hero thanks to eye-catching artwork by local artists and a tantalising eatery that tops every visiting foodie’s must-try list." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "Right on the edge of the CBD, this hotel feels extremely thoughtful—not to mention comfortable." Full review
