Hotel Monteleone

Hotel Monteleone is a legendary, family-owned landmark situated in the heart of the French Quarter, renowned for its grand Beaux-Arts facade and century-old history. Since 1905, the property has served as a literary and social hub, famously hosting iconic American authors and maintaining a designation as an official Literary Landmark. The guest rooms and suites combine traditional Southern charm with modern comforts, featuring high ceilings, plush furnishings, and classic marble bathrooms that provide a sophisticated retreat just steps away from Royal Street’s premier galleries and boutiques.

The experience is anchored by the world-famous Carousel Bar & Lounge, a revolving centerpiece that remains one of the city's most sought-after social destinations and the birthplace of the Vieux Carré cocktail. On-site dining is headlined by Criollo, which offers a refined menu celebrating the diverse culinary heritage of Louisiana, spanning French, Spanish, and African influences. With its year-round rooftop pool deck offering panoramic views of the Mississippi River and the French Quarter, Hotel Monteleone remains a premier choice for travelers seeking an authentic and uncomplicated stay in New Orleans.
