The Lamothe House is a beautiful historical building. It’s charming and elegant. The French Courtyard is well maintained. The pool is clean. The staff is great very friendly, knowledgeable, and welcoming. However, outside the hotel can be a little off putting because there is a lot of homeless that loiter around the area.

Great Location & Experience
Had a wonderful stay here! Loved the property and the management was incredible. We had a small issue with plumbing (understandable with an older building) and they were so quick to fix and provide us with alternative services while it was getting fixed. Would definitely come back again! Shout out to my girl Gabby too :)

Rooms vary in size quite a lot; ours was small but tidy. Bed was good, sheets and towels in good condition. Rooms at rear, adjoining Kerlerec Street, can have partiers passing by in the wee hours. Room did have a coffeemaker and K-cups. A few rooms have mini-fridges; ours did not. Lamothe is one of four hotels in a small chain here, the only one offering parking at $40/day. Overall, I'd give it a very good value for the price.

Good value, room for improvement
The Good: easy check-in/out, friendly and helpful staff. King room was very clean, and spacious for a single traveler. Wi-Fi worked fine, bed was comfortable, though the pillows didn't offer much support. Areas for Improvement: there was no safe in the room. This is pretty standard at even budget hotels. There was also no functional deadbolt on the door. The door had a bolt, but it was covered, rendering it non functional. The door instead was limited to a security latch (the kind that have basically replaced chain latches), and one side of the door could be bolted into the door frame. Maybe that's enough, but particularly with doors that face directly outside, the lack of a deadbolt was curious. I should note though, that by facing "outside," I mean into a courtyard/alley which requires key access - your room door is not directly open to the street. Water pressure in the shower was pretty poor. Washing and rinsing hair really took some extra time because of this. The sink was clogged with a very slow drain. Generally the room was quiet but less so on weekends, given the proximity to Frenchmen. Some noise spills over from there into the wee hours, as well as loud folks walking the streets after a night of partying. My room was also an adjoining room. Though my neighbors weren't unusually loud, a good bit of noise through the shared door. I would stay here again, but it would not be one of my first choices. But in cases where the price is unbeatable, maybe.

Overall the hotel is in great condition. The rooms are nice, the courtyard and pool are gorgeous, and it's a terrific deal. Downsides? In the carriage rooms in the back (where I stayed) the walls are thinner than the brick walls of the main house. You can easily hear people talking through your walls. I was also right next to the back gate, which you can enter and exit using your room key, and it slams so hard it woke me up during the night more than once. It's a minor quibble, but you might want to ask them for a "quiet" room when you book.

We wanted to stay in an old New Orleans hotel and Lamothe fit the bill. Gorgeous antique lobby. Courtyard was just lovely. Stayed in a very quaint state room. Loved it. TV was weird, like you had to cast it off your phone. We’ll be back!!!

DON'T STAY HERE. I took my son to New Orleans for his birthday, and booked the Grand Suite. The first night I could hear liquid pinging off the floor but I couldn't find it. The second night water was streaming from the ceiling. The front desk person moved us to a different room. After lugging our suitcases up the stairs, I opened the door to find a man in his underwear sleeping. We were then moved to a property out the back door & across the street. That room was very obviously under construction. There was sawdust in the bedside table drawers, no safety lock, a dismantled fire alarm, the bottom drawer of the dresser was FILLED with random wired items like headphones from walking tours, chargers, hdmi cables, totally bizarre, and the cold water faucet didn't work at all. At this point it was pretty late so we just decided to suck it up since we had been told this was the last room available in the hotel, and I had no money to just book a different hotel. During all of this the front desk person told me they were going to give me a partial refund that would be put back on my card by the morning. I never received that refund. The room we were moved to was also cheaper than what I had booked, and I did not receive a refund for the price difference. After I came home I contacted the person about the refund, and they never replied. Expedia tried 3xs, no reply. I ended up having to contact my bank. TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE.

Staff was marginally helpful and I was harassed 2 out of 3 nights by people in the area. In addition the room i had was in a separate, new, block in the rear. Not the historical building. Location was good. You get what you pay for.
