Just spent a super weekend at Lamothe House Hotel, New Orleans. I was a little concerned due to mixed reviews but our room was very clean, delightfully decorated, & the location cannot be beat. We had a small room off the courtyard of the main house - the bedroom was small but the bathroom was decent sized. I loved the... more

When you weigh the price, the location, the character, and the wonderful staff...this hotel is still my favorite. And I've stayed in most of the hotels in the French Quarter over the past 10 years. I enjoy the sense of living in the Quarter; not of just being a guest of a hotel. This is what you get at Lamothe.... more

We visited the Lamothe House for a long weekend to celebrate my husband's 30th Birthday. We stayed June 5-9, 2008 in Room 101. I was told by a clerk when preparing to book that it is one of the best rooms in the hotel (I really did my research since it was for my hub's birthday). We were definitely not... more

My partner and I stayed at this lovely hotel for a week and could not have enjoyed our stay more. Our room was amazing, with beautiful antique furnishings and mirrors. We also had a balcony overlooking beautiful Esplanade Ave. The staff at the hotel were incredibly friendly with lots of suggestions about tours, restaraunts, and things to do in the... more

I have traveled the world for the last 20+ years, I have never experienced a greater "hotel horror story" than the Lamothe House. I have stayed in guest houses, B&Bs, hotels and resorts. From the moment we walked in the front door, we knew we were in trouble. The hallway was poorly lit, the sofa was frumpy and stained, the... more

I was a little disappointed really. It looked great at first but the staff aren't really friendly and was not made to feel welcome. There was only one guy who was friendly and charming but the others couldn't really care. Not what you would expect from a small hotel / guest house. The breakfast was so awful on the first... more

After reading glowing reviews about this B&B, my boyfriend and I decided to stay at the Lamothe House during our annual vacation to the New Orleans Jazz Fest. Upon arrival, we were told that our rooms were across the street in the "Marigny House" instead of the main house. The room assigned to us was simply terrible. The room was... more

I want to share my experience with The Lamothe House with everyone. We went to New Orleans for a vacation, and booked a room here. We got one of the one beadroom suites, which was beautiful. The staff was very accomidating from the get go. Then, a few days into our vacation, my best friend and travel companion ended up... more

I cannot understand the negative reviews. My son and I stayed for JazzFest 2008 and could only spend half our stay here as they were booked over the latter half- but regretted having to leave for Embassy Suites- a generic fancy suite hotel. The pool was very clean and lots of fun for my 7 year old every morning. We... more
