Lafitte Hotel & Bar

The staff were friendly and welcoming.

Room was falsely advertised as having a bathtub. Was not provided option for room with bathtub even though I asked immediately. Room heavy with chemical smell. Changed room to one that did not seem to have smell, but only because AC was on full blast. Turned off AC and went to dinner. Returned to chemical smell. Emailed hotel and booking.com at 3am. Could not sleep. Found another hotel and left Lafitte at 8am. They did not accept responsibility and did not comp room, even though I moved out the next morning (had 3 nights total) into another hotel.

I liked that it was an old hotel with history, and character, and that I could walk to Jackson Square and the cathedral from there.

I liked everything about the place, from the location and historical nature to the staff on site. They were friendly and very helpful and accommodating, even when I had trouble maneuvering my too large for the area pickup truck. The room furniture has an antique and historic vibe that I loved and the balcony was a nice place to chill and take in the skyline. I loved the quaint and old timey feel of the bar area, including the guy playing piano music. And it's all on Bourbon st.

We loved the big room and all that space. Plus we loved being the only ones up there.

Location and fact that it was not a hotel

Excellent location on Bourbon street and in the heart of French quarters. Gives a very cottage vibe but modern at the same time. Has a lift so that’s a huge plus. I stayed in the top floor room and had a good view from there. The bar across the street is always buzzing. So if you like music and you’re in New Orleans for that pub hopping, music scene or just to chill, then this is the place to begin and end the night at the piano lounge which has live music nights also. Rooms are nice and cozy and so is the bed. The bathroom is well stocked and also a beauty in itself.

the location was great.

Landmark hotel, classic NOLA feel, and perfect location next to one of our favorite bars at the far end of Bourbon Street! Felt very safe with needing a code to get in after-hours. Owner was super nice and we enjoyed everything!

Thanks to Guy and all the staff at Lafitte! I couldn’t make my trip a year ago and this property does not do refunds but they did honor my credit for a year after my intended trip date. I worked with Guy to arrange my new trip and he made it happen! All the staff I worked with both over the phone and at the hotel were truly kind and accommodating. And to top it all off, we had the most beautiful room with a balcony seeing down the entirety of Bourbon street! We didn’t have any ghost experiences, but I will be returning whenever I come back to New Orleans. Thank you Lafitte Hotel!

Great place to stay close to Bourbon Street away from the chaos! Easy walking distance to shops and restaurants, bar downstairs and next door and late night food options. The staff were all so friendly and helpful. The room was clean, had a fridge, and the hotel had older historical charm, really liked having a balcony, we really enjoyed our stay!

Our Cruise Ship was going out of New Orleans so we decided we wanted to spend a couple of days enjoying New Orleans. Our stay was wonderful and we really enjoyed the historic value of this hotel and the area that it is in. If you are looking for a luxury hotel then this not the hotel for you. If you are looking for a wonderful hotel that has the charm of New Orleans then this is your place. We loved everything about it and the staff was excellent. Thank You

The staff was amazing, I lost my phone and they were attentive and asked frequently if I had found it which was really nice to know they cared. The building was gorgeous and we stayed in room 40 which was decorated nicely and was clean upon arrival. We would absolutely stay again.

Looked just like pictures
