Located in New Orleans' French Quarter, Hotel Monteleone is at the beating heart of the Crescent City. Guests find that it's possible to walk to just about every famous landmark in New Orleans, including Bourbon Street, Jackson Square and even the Superdome.
The Carousel Piano Bar & Lounge may be the most famous bar in all of Louisiana. Guests are relieved then to find that it lives up to its reputation. The rotating bar is a spectacle in itself. The only downside is that the bar can become very busy.
Past guests have reported that the hotel staff is hospitable and friendly, lending a feeling of the Old South to proceedings.
While many guests thoroughly enjoy their time at Hotel Monteleone, others note that the hotel is looking a little frayed around the edges. This shouldn't come as a big surprise for a building that's more than 120 years old. Chipped paint, peeling wallpaper and soiled carpets are some of the criticisms levied at the hotel.
Some guests report that the check-in process can prove lengthy, with long queues forming quickly. It has also been noted that check-in time, which some find to be fairly late in the day to start with, is sometimes pushed back to early evening.
The Monteleone's status as a Historical Hotel of America tempts many non-guests to visit the establishment. Add to this a world-renowned bar, the hotel's favored reputation with ghost-hunters and its central location and you have all the ingredients for a very busy location, something guests have been put off by.
