"We stayed Feb 25, 2012 for one night before our cruise out of New Orleans. Did not get a discount, booking last minute and payed premium price. Everything was fine and even got early check in (1:00 PM ). We drove so the valet parking came in handy. Parking is chaos in the French Quarter. For one night the price has worh it to enjoy the experience of the French Quarters nightlife and all in walking distance. Staff was friendly and well staffed for check in and out. Newspaper and coffee in the lobby. All rooms are small due to the architecture of that period. Our balcony was very relaxing. To stay any length of time I would look for a discounted price. The night we stayed was the weekend after Mardis Gras so I knew I was going to pay premium."

"The room was very small and very old. The staff was nice. The coffee maker did not work. The parking cost over $70 from 12 midnight friday night to 10 am sunday morning, too much. thee was something that dripped on my windshield while parked and I still have not totally got off my car. Location was great, but fo the price would choose another hotel next time."

"Enjoyed our trip to New Orleans (5th time there for me, 2nd for my partner) immensely! Love the music,history, food, and friendly people. That said, this hotel is definitely not what we have come to expect, after staying in numerous 4 star hotels across North America and Europe. Negatives; The room was small and very dark and dank smelling. The carpets looked in need of a serious cleaning. Despite daily maid service, the bathroom floor remained unwashed in many places for the entire six night we were there. The towels were thin and sometimes quite worn. It took 3 to 4 requests to get what we wanted (ie missing fridge in room was finally brought up, after my 4th request!). Positives; While the front desk staff were not terribly efficient, they were friendly and pleasant. The hotel location is fantastic, and they have a pretty courtyard and pool area. The sense of history is amazing! That said, next trip to New Orleans, we will be going back to Le Pavillion, or trying the Hotel Monteleone."

"Everything was great."

"We attended a wedding in Jennings, LA and decided to extend our trip with a visit to New Orleans. We booked The Maison Dupuy Hotel with BookIt.com due to on-line photos and reviews. We were very pleased! We got an excellent rate in the heart of the French Quarter and were within walking distance to everything. Our car was secure in their on location parking garage with 1/2 price valet parking! The hotel and our room was lovely, upscale but not at a upscale price. I would highly recommend BookIt.com and The Maison Dupuy Hotel to anyone planning a stay in New Orleans French Quarter!"

"For a 4 star hotel I wasn't impressed. I got the smallest room in the place, I think because of the package deal. The sheets and bedspread had holes in them. Some of the desk staff were not very helpful. The advertised perks, like a paper in the morning were not available. I would of appreciated if bookit.com knew that the courtyard was being renovated, I would have chosen a different hotel.
"

"Everything was great, enjoyed the brunch at 2 Sisters, and the 1/2 price break on the valet parking. Convienent to Bourbon street."

"My wife and I enjoyed our stay very much. It is in a great location easy access to everything. The room was clean and very comfortable. The staff was very friendly and was able to answer all our question. We really enjoyed the Truffle Mac & Cheese they serve at the bar. I will stay here again in the future and would recommend it to my friends."

"The lovely Maison Dupuy Hotel s a :friendly, comfortable, and clean hotel. A lovely courtyard surrounds the pool and hot tub. The Bistro restaurant has wonderful food at a reasonable price. The small store and business center are additional perks. Location is great, only 2 blocks to Bourbon Street and within easy walking distance to thr Riverfront area. Tour buses will pick you up right at your front door.

Staff is very helpful and knowledgeable.

Friendly bellstaff are always willing and able to help. Be sure to ask for a balcony room as they are more spacious. There are both courtyard and city views.

If you have room service ; I hope you meet the very nice little lady whoe served us. I wish I knew her name as she was awesome!

As a travel agent I would highly reccommend this hotel."

"The hotel was wonderful, service was great, clean, confortable and in the French Quarter. Didn't quite understand the deposit required at the front desk but was cleared up when we got home."

"a Great place to stay."

"Maison Dupuy is centrally located in the French Quarter and has a friendly and helpful staff. 3 minor complaints are: 1) the hot tub wasn't working, 2) we were charged $1a day for having a coffee maker in our room, even though we didn't use it and 3) there was no hotel stationery in the room. Not enough reasons not to return there, but it would have been nice if they had offered to remedy these issues.

We would highly recommend the bike rental shop at 325 Burgundy. The owner is full of useful information, the rentals a are first class and include basket, lock, map and helmets, which many of the other shops do not. Also his prices are lower. He was one of the highlights of our visit."

"Having stayed at the Maison Dupuy last Christmas, we were looking forward to an equally enjoyable visit. However, we were disappointed from the very start:
this year's 'standard' room was measurably inferior to last year's, in terms of value, condition, view, etc. The room was either too cool or too warm, even after our unsuccessful attempts to regulate it, and our 2 notifications to the front desk. The shower handle was broken, making it difficult to control the water temperature. A handle of the bureau was broken, as was one of the two chairs at the table (no armchair). A coffee machine had been added to the bathroom (a nasty practice!) with a note informing us that for each cup consumed, $1 would be added to our bill. The 'free' drink coupon was limited to just a couple of the bar's (cheapest) choices. The kicker came when I asked for a different room and was told that I could have an upgrade - for $200 more per night! Overall, a dark spot on our otherwise enjoyable visit to a terrific city."

"THE HOTEL WAS NICE, OUR ROOM WAS NOT KEPT CLEAN, THEY GAVE US A FREE BREAKFAST. SAID THEY WOULD MAKE SURE THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN TO SOME ONE ELSE."

"The staff was great, bookit.com said they had smoking rooms which they do not. We arrived in New Orleans about ten and we could not check in bookit.com did not tell us that we couldnt check into four.i reserved a balcony room and it was wrote up that way. I think the hotel could have been better no access to microwave vending machine and ice machine was out. Bookit.com did not tell me that there was a 150 deposit on each room, if my room was paid in full why was there a deposit."

"Check in staff were extremely nice and friendly-excellent experience. Then went to the room there was mold on the window sill and on the shower curtain. Oh well close the curtain for the window and put the shower curtain on the outside so it can't touch me. Then to the lounge for our 'book-it' cocktail. The waiter took forever then came back three times to get the drinks right. I could have walked to the river and got one quicker. The check in staff was nice enough to even give us a late check-out as we were late in arriving that evening but we could not leave our car past the regular check-out time.

Front desk 5 star everything else 3 stars"

"I don't know where that picture came from, but, it is not this hotel. Despite that, the location was great. It was close enough to walk to the river and Bourbon Street is only about a 3 minute walk, but it was quiet at the hotel. The courtyard was beautiful and the beds were very comfortable. We did have a little trouble checking in. We got there about 6:00 and our rooms were not ready. Book It had told me there were smoking rooms, but they were wrong. We were able to smoke in the courtyard though. When we got rooms, one had a leak in the bathroom and the floor was wet. The next room was ok, but we had to take showers because the bathtub looked yucky. It wasn't dirty I don't think, but stained. The hotel information in the room said room service was available until 10, but we called at 9:00 and had a little trouble getting them and when we did, the lady didn't know if we could get hamburgers that late or not. We did get them, but they were not very good and the bill for four people was almost $100. (We got 2 bottled waters for $7 each!) Our rooms were $125 a night. I would have been able to better overlook some of the drawbacks if we had gotten one of the $89/night deals I just saw on Bookit.com. If you do go, be sure to ask for a balcony room."

"What a great hotel, all of the ammenities, quiet, yet close to Bourbon St.
Staff was very friendly, and I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone!!"

"great place except there were two weddings during our stay and the hotel made the courtyard off limits to us. we had been enjoying just sitting in the courtyard relaxing so that was disappointing. as guests the courtyard was one of the features of this hotel. also the breakfast at the hotel was extremely high priced, better to eat elsewhere.
everything else about the hotel was great, especially the location."

"Our room was the standard king, While it was clean and the bed was great, the room had a window looking out to a wall. This is not the type of room you would want to spend a lot of time in but the point in coming to NOLA was not to sit in a room but to see the sights. "

"We just returned from our New Orleans trip and stayed at Maison Dupuy- the staff was very courteous- the hotel is quite beautiful and it is in a very good location for everything in the French Quarter. It is clean and the beds are very comfortable. We plan on staying there again.

"

"The Maison Dupuy was fantastic! Super close to Bourbon Street and Jackson Square. Tours we booked picked us up right at the door and everyone was very helpful. Rooms were great, especially those with balconies. Pool was fun and drinks were delicious. The staff was amazing and friendly. We would definitely go back again. Lots of fun! Thank you."

"We stayed at the Maison Dupuy in two rooms from sept 26-30 and couldn't have been more pleased. I really booked the rooms just hoping for something decent to stay in while enjoying the quarter, but was shocked at how nice this little hotel is. Comfortable beds, spacious rooms, beautiful courtyard, friendly staff, and two nice restaurants. Away from the noise but easy walking distance to everything in the quarter. I usually like to stay somewhere different every time I come to Nola but I will most likely be staying here again."

"We chose New Orleans as the location to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. When the hotel we wanted was booked, the Maison DuPuy was recommended to us. We were very glad that we chose the Maison DuPuy, our seven night stay there was great! ALL of the staff were very friendly and helpful, even recommending 'out of the way' restaurants where the locals go. The hotel was very nice and the location was great. The pool was closed one night due to the courtyard being booked for a wedding, but otherwise it was available any time. Thank you Maison DuPuy for helping to make our stay so enjoyable!"

"I recently stayed at the Maison Dupuy as I was in town for a funeral. I enjoyed the hotel and would stay there again. I arrived after midnight, and the night staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was clean, given it is an older hotel, and the bed was great! I had a balcony room facing the street. The balcony was shared by 2 other rooms, but never had an issue. In fact, one evening, I brought up a few drinks from the very nice bar, and sat out on the balcony, enjoying the atmosphere outside (while still watching a ball game on the great HD TV). My only criticisms would be that parking was way over priced (although the valet staff was very nice), and some furniture should be upgraded in the near future - it was looking a little old, and not in the classic sense. That would really make this place shine!"

"Maison Dupuy was perfect We had so much fun and it was walking distance to everything"

"Our 3 night stay was wonderful at the Maison Dupuy Hotel. We were in the parlor suite and found it to be very clean and spacious. The entire staff exemplified 'southern hospitality'. After a busy day of sight seeing and adventure we would return to the hotel for cocktails at the bar and enjoy the live entertainment. The bartenders also gave us great advise on where to eat at the 'locals' restaurants. Afterwards we would retreat to the courtyard and let the gas lamps, the tropical foliage and the bubbling water fountain complete setting the mood for the evening. It was as if we were in our own private oasis, very private and intimate. Fresh towels were just a few steps away after a dip in the pool or relaxing time in the hot tub. A nearby elevator provided a great escape back to suite, avoiding the reception area, and helped to maintain that magical mood. We plan on returning to the Maison Dupuy for out next visit to the unique charm of New Orleans.

"

"My husband and I recently stayed at this hotel and really enjoyed our stay. Rooms are clean and staff was very friendly and efficient. I especially enjoyed the fact that there was a balcony and we were able to sit outside. The restaurant was great, wonderful food and friendly service. Would return and recommend."

"Very nice, quaint hotel in the Quarter, but away from the noise. "

"The Bookit.com rate was a steal. The bar serves great bloody marys. Room service is expensive and the food is not worth the price. The beds are extremely comfortable. The location is convenient to the French Quarter."

"My trip to New Orleans was one of the most enjoyable trips I have taken.My hotel The Masion Dupuy; the staff was outstanding, the room wasvery nice,the hotel staff was very friendly and curteious. The location of the hotel was perfect. All the attractions we were interested in was in walking distance. Everything was just outstanding. I'm making plans to visit again and plan to stay at the Maison Dupuy. I can't say enough. Thank you, thank you, thank you."

"We stayed for 2 nights. the room was very nicely appointed and the view from the balcony was totally french quarter. we were only 2 blocks from Bourbon Street and within easy walking distance to all of the French Quarter. The first night, the hot tub was way to hot, but it was fixed and great the next evening. we didnt eat at the restuarant,but the drinks at the bar were better than average and the front desk and bartenders were helpful and friendly."

"We stayed at the Maison Dupuy the year after Katrina and it was beautiful. We may have had a deluxe room. For our stay this weekend, the hallways were filthy - dental floss, feathers, and a plastic cup were in our hallway the whole time we were there. The room itself seemed battered and rather sparse (standard room) but was clean. Despite that, I killed a giant NOLA roach in the bathroom at night. The bed was comfortable. The hotel was quiet except for the shouting maids in the morning. They were gossiping at the top of their lungs starting at 8 AM. All in all, it wasn't as nice as we remembered from our first stay. I'm not sure if we would choose to stay here again."

"Hotel was in good location but not the nicest. Small beds, cheap towels, no coffee maker in rooms. Was given directions incorrectly twice and had to back track after running into a local. Requested a couple of chairs to put on the balconey with the table that was there and was never given any in the three days we were there. Would not recommend."

"Friends and I enjoyed a ladies trip to New Orleans this week. We stayed at the Maison Dupuy hotel and were very happy we did. The service was great, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The hotel is nicely done, in a quiet location, but close to Bourbon St. and shopping. The beds are very comfortable, too.

The adjoining Meritage restaurant was a wonderful surprise. All the dinners we ordered were excellent, and the entire restaurant staff provided us with exceptional service. The same is true for their Bistro! I love their Shrimp Tacos, wish i could have brought some home. I will definitely stay there again, hopefully soon."

"We were recommended to stay at thie hotel on our recent trip to NOLA by The Cheeky Chef. We've been here many times before and really lenjoyed this hotel - the pool and terrace area were a nice break from the hectic atmosphere of the French Quarter. The bar tender Forest was very friendly and fully of suggestions of where to go/things to do. We would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting a get-a-way. We always try new restaurants and this time it was August Restaurant -- fine food and wonderful atmosphere. A repeat for sure"

"Walking distance from the shops, restaurants, and bars... on our first night the bar staff was kind enough to draw us a map of some local music, shops, and off the beaten path 'non tourist' locations. We will be coming back, and we will stay here again. "

"The Mansion Dupuy exceeded expectations. It was conviennent to everything. The breakfast room was a feast for the eyes, with it's colorful artwork and hand painted wall space.. The room was clean and comfortable. This was a very good experience"

"We really enjoyed New Orleans and this hotel. The location is perfect and the trolly ride down thru town was a nice introduction to the area. Also enjoyed the swamp tour!"

"Trip to New Orleans was both great and poor-it rained several days the first half then was clear and sunny and delightful. The hotel was lovely, unfortunately our room looked out on a cement wall but our friends room had a nice, bright window! Some rooms even have terraces overlooking the gorgeous fountain and courtyard.

We really enjoyed Burbon Street, the food and nightlife! Take a swamp tour if going-it was amazing.



The dollar twenty five trolley gives you a good sence of the city, mansions and overall layout of the city-HIGHLY recommend as a place of interest and FUN!"

"What a wonderful place to stay! We liked that it was close enough to Bourbon Street to afford easy access, but far enough away to enjoy a nice, quiet sleep to recharge our batteries! They have a very nice, small pool and comfy courtyard, so you can cool off with a swim or lounge a bit if you want to soak up some rays. King size bed/room was adequate and clean. Staff was very friendly and helpful. We didn't have a car, so did not have to deal with parking, but their attendants seemed to do a nice job of taking care of that for guests. We would definitely stay there again!"

"A group of us stayed at the Maison Dupuy in early September. It's proximity to Bourbon St. was the best of both worlds. It was a quick walk to all of the action. But, a nice break from the noise when you really needed it.

The hotel itself could use a bit of updating. We paid for a room with a street side balcony, but it was tiny and asked them to change us to a larger room. The bathrooms were small and had very little sink space, which for the gals can be an issue.

Apart from that, the rooms were clean. The main areas of the hotel were upscale and the pool area was gorgeous. I would recommend this hotel if comfort, affordability and location are a priority. If room size and decor matter, you may want to keep searching."

"Staying at this hotel was very smart. Location in the F.Q. yet away from the hustle and bustle of Borboun St proved excellent. After spending the day on foot with high humidity and stratospheric temps it was very nice coming back to the stillness and quietness afforded by M.Dupuy. Cooling off at the pool before night time was relaxing. The bar and restaurant area had a singer some nights yet we only visited to cash on welcome drink vouchers. We had no interest in dressing up either. In general, this was a great deal and excellent choice."

"Great hotel! Check in was fast, the room had was spacious and had a view. The courtyard was spectacular and came with a great pool with atmosphere. Old world with modern amenities. The breakfast bar was good and filling. I booked the room through Bookit.com and along with a great price came half off parking per day, 2 for free breakfast bar, and 2 free drinks. Excellent value from a top tier hotel close to Bourbon Street."

"My girlfriend and I have stayed in the Maison Dupuy Hotel 2 or 3 times. It is great, its quiet, upscale and really, really nice. The room service is EXCELLENT. The restaurant and Bar are ever so convenient. If it is rainy weather you never have to leave the hotel. The food is excellent and the drinks are just as good. The pool area is great also. At night it is divine. Make sure you get a balcony room, so you can sit out in the late evening! I would recommend the Maison Dupuy to everyone especially if you come to relax and enjoy. The location is great and you just cannot beat it compared to a larger hotel. This place is a laid back atmosphere. You can really let the GOOD TIMES ROLL !!! I will always stay there when I com to New Orleans."

"My husband and I just returned from a 4 night stay at the Maison Dupuy. I could not recommend it enough for folks who are looking to be in the heart of the Quarter and want a great value. We found the staff to be truly helpful. The lady at the front desk was a gem- setting up tours for us and answering all of our questions with a smile. We thoroughly enjoyed eating at the restaurant connected to the hotel. The red beans and rice cannot be beat! The waitstaff was lovely. Our bartender was so welcoming and friendly- to top it off, he can make a mean Bloody Mary! The rooms are standard, but we did not spend much time indoors at all. The pool is located inside the courtyard- it is relaxing and quiet, not to mention beautiful. We liked the fact that both the pool and hot tub were open until 11pm, it was a great treat to come back to the hotel and relax!"

"Within a short walking distance to all French Quarter highlights and not that far from other attractions. A very nice hotel with all your necessities available. We had absolutely no issues with this hotel and would definately return. Ladies...leave the heels at home. Wear something comfortable to walk in."

"I went for a wedding in Jan. of 2011, the best kept hotel in the french quarter; by far. The fountain...and the pool...did I mention outdoor spa, seriously this is the place...A must do...Quality, total comfort,beauty,NOLA at it's best. Go, you'll thank me..."

"The Maison Dupuy is a beautiful hotel. Walking distance to the quarter and restaurants. A couple of blocks from Bourbon St. Getting your vehicle in and out of the garage was a little difficult, but worth the location. We would stay there again."

"The package deal with Bookit was great, especially the half-price valet parking! Although we did hit a snag with the vouchers for the two free brunches at the Court of Two Sisters. The hostess tried to tell us Bookit did not reserve our date and time, but luckily we had the printed vouchers to prove it! The location of the hotel was great and the lobby and courtyard had great New Orleans charm. The rooms were small but clean and the bed was very comfortable. They list coffee makers as amenities above, but there was not one in our room...free coffee in the lobby though. "

"We decided to get away for a quick one-night stay over Memorial Day weekend and were happy to find a room available at the Maison Dupuy in the French Quarter. The location is excellent & within walking distance to everything, including Bourbon Street, Canal Street, Harrah's Casino, French Market, etc..etc.. Rooms are clean, the bed was comfy, and we loved the historic charm of the hotel. When we decide to visit NOLA again, we will definately stay here again. "

"We enjoyed our stay, lovely room, beautiful hotel. Loved the view of the courtyard & our king size bed. Only a couple of things to watch out for, bathroom is VERY small, breakfast not so good & expensive for powdered eggs & processed sausage links. It was in a nice quiet section of the Quarter. No concierge on weekdays."
