"At the foot of Canal Street, the Westin is technically in the French Quarter -- but not quite of it."

"The two great views possible at this large convention hotel are enviable: two-story arched lobby windows overlook the French Quarter and rooms tower over the great bend in the Mississippi River."

"The Monteleone has been a French Quarter landmark since 1886. This family-owned hotel has undergone a major renovation, revamping its rooms with new fabrics, furniture, and amenities."

Try booking one of the “literary rooms,” named for writer guests such as Truman Capote and Ernest Hemingway.
Rough Guide
"This handsome French Quarter landmark is the oldest hotel in the city, owned by the same family since 1886, and hosting a fine array of writers and luminaries since then."
Star Service
"The Monteleone is a big family-owned independent in one of the best locations in the French Quarter: right in the midst of the city's finest antiques shops."
