We'd like to recommend the Eola but unfortunately can't. I stayed there a few years ago and it had a bit of trashy elegance, unfortunately now it's simply trashy. Most of the staff did not know they were supposed to be working in a service industry, it's like they were dropped in from another planet. Unless you are an aficionado... More

We went may 18 and 19. I was a little worried about it because of the bad reviews. Decided to try it. It was great. History of the place was amazing. Room was great. Balcony awesome. People were so nice. If you are young dont go. Its for us quiter people.we had the best time and got to bring my... More

We thought it would be a nice change from the chains to stay at a grande dame of a hotel. But when we kept rolling to the middle of the uncomfortable mattress we regretted our choice and yearned for the clean and comfortable predictability of the chains. We did like our little balcony when we had our coffee in the... More

Every time we visit Natchez, we stay at the Eola. There may more comfortable, updated hotels in the area, but none compare to the history and character of the Eola. We always get a 7th floor room with a balcony and view of the river and it has become a home away from home for us. The staff is friendly... More

This was our worst trip to Natchez because we stayed at the Eola. Our room was small, dirty, and uncomfortable. The minute we walked in we were very underwhelmed with our room. It wasn't much bigger than my closest at home. My husband is 6''2 and he felt cramped in the bathroom, especially the shower. The bulky commercial tp dispenser... More

I don't understand why anyone recommends this disgusting firetrap. The lobby is pretty, and the bar is too (if you can get past the thick haze of cigarette smoke). The bathroom was no good (slow drain, awful layout and just ugly) and the linens were all in bad shape, right down to the curtains that looked like a cat clawed... More

The Eola Hotel was the most disappointing part of our recent trip to Natchez. The service was nonexistent. The property is in desperate need of renovation. I had to get up in the middle of the night to work on the toilet because it wouldn't stop running. A large group of kids decided to party virtually all night the first... More

Single-ply TP in a balky dispenser may be all you need to know about the room amenities in the Eola. Guest comfort did not seem to be a priority in the design and details were not attended to. The towel rack was behind the shower door, for example. The room had no stand for your suitcase and felt very cramped.... More

This is a beautiful hotel located in downtown Natchez that is on the National Register of Historic Places. The lobby is beautiful and decorated with antique furniture. The elevators have lots of brass so many features of the 1927 hotel are still there. The staff was friendly. We were on the 6th floor and unfortunately, as with other historic hotels... More
