Dauphine Orleans Hotel

It was really a nice hotel, but just keep in mind very old. The valet was great, and we knew our cars were safe. The pool area was small and quaint, but very nice. It is very accessible to Burbon Street and other sites were just a walking distance away including a Walgreens and CVS. Also, just a hop skip and a jump to the cruise terminal and I think the ones that didn't have a car, were offered a shuttle, but at a very reasonable price. We never felt unsafe and truly enjoyed our stay.

Room condition was totally different with pics of online. What I wanted was balcony, sofa and pool. I could see all of them on website but no sofa and balcony. I couldn't even open the window and it blocked so room was so dark. I asked staff to change rooms but she ask me extra pay. I showed my reservation to her after that she told me she can change the room but room will be worse but it has balcony. I was totally disappointed. She was also so not kind and helpful. When I called her in my room, she said like "what you want? What is your problem, come down stairs. " I felt I didn't treat as customer at all. I traveled a lot but it is first time to leave this kind of reviews.

Rooms could use a lot of improvements. Most of the hotel rooms across the street have doors that don't close completely. Extremely noisy. The carpeting in several of the rooms is extremely filthy and most of the bathrooms could use a seriously deep clean/updates. One of the rooms I stayed in didn't have bulbs in most of the lamps, and the final room I stayed in the overhead lighting didn't work at all. Overall a neat historic hotel, though they could really use some improvements to make your stay a little more relaxing and enjoyable.

Staff was great! We were upgraded as soon as we got there when we told them it was our anniversary! The room they gave us was phenomenal! Beds were made daily and we got everything we asked for. The Dauphine was a pleasant experience for sure!!!

The pictures on the website are EXTREMELY misleading. This place looks a lot nicer than it actually is. We did not stay in the main house but got the deluxe double bed room. It was extremely basic and comparable to a cheaper hotel room. There were a lot of little things that could simply be fixed or cleaned that would make this place look overall better. Like the nasty dust filled vents, the dirty baseboards and we didn't even have a dresser (only very very small pull out drawers) for a room that sleeps 4 people. The best part about our room was the balcony with the city view. Parking is $50 a day and the website fails to mention this anywhere. The staff was friendly and the location is GREAT! Walking distance from a lot of things. After the initial shock and disappointment from the pictures online vs in person, overall our stay was still good. My mom says she would stay here again but I think I would pay a little more for something nicer.

A clean and reasonably priced hotel, right in the heart of the French Quarter. A beautiful courtyard - we ended each day with a cocktail while sitting there. A block away from Bourbon Street but it was a very quiet experience!! I would stay here again!!

The location is very nicely centered in the French Quarter and you don't hear any noise from the streets, at least from our room.||Though we were expecting better according to the reviews. Our room was outdated, noisy within itself (AC) and not super clean. I can't imagine we still can find carpet in hotel rooms, they are unsanitary.||

Stayed in this place a few nights despite some of the negative reviews. Frankly I’m not sure what they were talking about. We stayed in the house across the street from the main building our room was nice and clean and private. Hotel staff was courteous as well, and the bar across the street is nice. Perfect location for the French quarter, as it’s far enough away to be quiet but not so far it’s a long or sketchy walk back at night. Obviously it’s not the Ritz but it’s not nearly as expensive. I’d have no qualms about staying here again. Only complaint for me is that I didn’t know or think about the parking being extra and it was $40 a day I believe. Not a big deal but something you might need to budget for
