Such a wonderful find!!! This hotel is made up of two mansions on Esplanade Ave. between the French Quarter and Frenchman St. The rooms are well appointed and cozy. The pool and hot tub (even in the summer) was absolutely amazing after a long day walking around the town. This is our new favorite place to stay in the city we love.

Lovely place. Clean and comfy. Kind of awkward that the pool and hot tub we were supposed to use were at another hotel location. Just a few houses down. But still not convenient. Also hot tub was just hot, no jets 😳

We fell in love with New Orleans, and staying at Rathbone Mansions was the perfect spark to the fun we had. We'll be back and won't stay anywhere else.
