"I've stayed in NOLA many times. I've stayied in hotels in the quarter and the CBD. This was one of mky least favorite. The carpet had big stains the faucet handles in the bathroom were lose. The doorlock to the room didn't seem secure. The room itself was very small for the amount of money it cost. The staff were friendly and responsive, but that didn't really make up for the rest. I won't stay there again and wouldn't recommend the place to others."

"This hotel was wonderful, great staff, great experience, walking distance to everything.

"Very nice place. Old and creeky. The room was very nice 1 small complaint the bed was not comfortable but I was not planning on sleeping much any way. Easy access to the places we wanted to go. Staff was great. I would stay again and again."

"We had room 216, the 2-bedroom suite and it was absolutely fantastic!! The room was clean, the staff were corteous, and it was in a great location for where we wanted to stay."

"I have traveled to New Orleans many times in the last 40 years and love the city like a second home. My daughter moved there about 8 years ago so I have had a good sampling of various accomidations through the years. Last July while visiting my daughter on her birthday I found a treasure. If you are looking for a real New Orleans experience, you will find it here at the Lamothe House. The staff is exceptionally friendly and knowledgable. The accomidations are clean & distinctive with a beautiful worn and welcome feel. In most rooms you will not see the standard issue opulence of an upscale hotel chain. You will also not see the standard issue price one pays for that type of manufactured and predictable luxury. What you will experiece here is the real New Orleans - friendly people, a peaceful location close to the action without being in the middle of it and beautiful surroundings that have experienced history & use - all at a price even the locals would recommend....... and if opulence really is your style.... check out one of the suites in the main house! I highly recommend this hotel and I am looking forward to returning!"

"For a mid range hotel, the Lamothe House was perfect. Just what you need to add to the New Orleans experience. A great location, clean rooms and friendly staff. The pool area adds that certain je ne sais quois."

"My husband and I had a great time at The Lamothe House. We were upgraded to a suite in one of the back houses and it was large, comfortable and quiet. We also had immediate access to the parking lot in the back. Our housekeeper was a sweetheart and took great care of us. The house is perfectly located to all the hustle and bustle of the French Quarter, but is quiet and secluded enough to afford a restful night's sleep. Also, if you walk 2 streets back, you will find Frenchmen Street which is easy access for food, small bars and a lot of local flavor. Take a ten minute walk and you are in the heart of Royal and Bourbon Streets. Stop at the Clover Grill on your way back to the hotel after a night of partying. Thanks for a great time, Lamothe! We are already planning our return!"

"We only stayed one night and was only there to sleep so I have not complaints!"

"The Lamothe House is in the perfect location to enjoy what the locals enjoy instead of the tourist stuff. Walking out the back of the hotel and around the corner to Frenchman St, great food and great music. I've been a musician 58 years. Tthey had a ragae band playing at the cafe negril that blew my socks right off...
The rooms are nice, old, restored, the shower was slippery be careful. Door locks not so good. A nice area of town. Don't forget your outside door key getting someone to push the security button can be a wait. I will stay here again the next time I go back a good value and a nice slice of the New Orleans lifestyle ...

"Check in & check out were swift & easy . Staff called a cab to airport for us when leaving & the cab was right on time.

Room was clean & quiet. Bathroom was a bit tight but was just fine w/ only 2 people in staying there.

Hotel was convenient location and walking distance from the Quarter - located on 1 end so a walk up & back covered everything ."

"A pleasant stay was had at the hotel.A bit disappointed that we were put across the road as it was our honeymoon and we gave 6 months notice, a stay in the house would have been nice!It was clean and the breakfast was good when the cleaners wasnt arguing in the kitchen!overall a great location and would recommend to all.

"We made reservations at the Lamothe House for Southern Decadence. This Bed and Breakfast is centrally located to food, the French Market and excitement of Bourbon street. It took us approximately 10 minutes to walk to the French Market and 20 minutes to Jackson Square. We were quite pleased with the location in reference to nightlife. We will definitely make reservations at this BB in the future."

"I wanted to stay in a hotel that was a New Orleans style and not your typical corporate hotel. This was total New Orleans. When we got there we had to be buzzed in, which to me makes it safe so not just anyone can barge in. As we walked in it seemed a bit mysterious since we did not instantly see a Front Desk person, so we just walked down the long hall and finally saw a sign that lead us up a flight of stairs and to find someone in a room that could look like a living room. The gentleman checked us in, he was very nice and explained everything in detail. We finally got to our room, which was not in the main house but in the back building at the very end, I was like ok privacy? When we got to the door, the door handle was so low it seemed like the person that lived here was a Little Person. But I thought it was kinda cute, so we opened the door and everything looked old style but still quaint. I liked it. The bathroom was basic, they had an armour for the closet. Bed was comfy. For the room it was nice for the price. I did not like the fact that the hot tub did not work the whole time we were there and I was looking forward to taking a dip and I would of liked to have swam but the pool creeped me out. Aside from that I loved they had free breakfast every morning which saved us time and money. It was a basic breakfast but I am not picky. Overall it was a decent stay for the price. I would stay here again for the style and history of the place but only if the hot tub works and the pool is updated. ;) "

"My girlfriend and I stayed at Lamothe last week, and overall our experience was good. We stayed in a one bedroom suite in the main house.

After reading lots of reviews I was a bit concerned about cleanliness. Everything is a little old and some may be put off by it, but nothing about it was gross or dingy. Bathroom was basic and clean. Checked for bed bugs, didn't find any (being from new york, this was a main concern). Room was quiet. Staff was friendly. The pool was a bit dirty, leaves and whatnot. We had never been to New Orleans before, staying in an old townhouse added to the overall experience.
No paranormal activity, though. i don't believe in ghosts, but my gf just didn't think it was haunted. you be the judge.

in the end, glad to have stayed here and not a cookie-cutter hilton or marriot. the floor was waxy/slippery. a bit weird, but somehow we found the strength to press on. "

"I absolutely loved my stay here! The first night we stayed in a small standard size room with beautiful Victorian furniture in the small court yard just outside of the main house. The next day we received a free upgrade to a suite which was fully re-modeled in the Maringny Guest House (a separate building across the street). A large crystal chandelier hung in our room of silver and teal paint. We had a huge bathroom with a jacuzzi tube. I loved the free parking next door to the building and how it was right on the edge of the French Quarter. I would definitely stay here again!"

"The building was lovely on the outside and on a beautiful quiet but conveniently located street just on the edge of the Quarter. Lovely traditional, historical building which is what we wanted. We stayed in the main house. The room was less than lovely however. It was dark, small and the bathroom was not the nicest. The floor had a strange waxy coating and meant you slipped everywhere if not wearing good grip shoes-very bizarre. Bed was a bit soft and sagging in the middle. It was pretty clean, but not perfect. I appreciate it is an old building, but it could have been a little more updated. The courtyard was nice, but the pool was filthy-not sure if it was the fact that it was winter? Breakfast was not great but free and in a nice dining room of the beautiful old house. However-I will say that for the price it is actually not bad for New Orleans and I would recommend to someone on a budget that still wanted to be close and in a traditional New Orleans style building. Could just do with a bit of an update."

"The Lamothe house was a very nice place to stay and I loved the free parking. Everyone was very friendly. We didn`t get to stay in the main house but stayed in a room out behind the main hotel. I would very definitely stay there again. It was very quiet and cozy. It was within walking distance of everything we wanted to see. We would definitely stay there again. I`m surprised my husband loved New Orleans so we may be making a second trip this year!!!"

"If you want to feel the true spirit of New Orleans, than you have to stay at the Lamothe House! I Loved it . My room was in the courtyard of the main house and it couldn`t have been more perfect, like my own little Creole cottage overlooking a Fountain/Koi pond and lush plants. The staff was great, every single one of them. Not to mention the free breakfast and parking both of which save me a bundle."

"Had a wonderful time. Rooms were beautiful. I like the historic ambience. Check in was no problem, and the coffee was good! A pleasant walk to the French Quarter. This place makes for a GREAT romantic weekend stay in New Orleans. We will be back soon."
