“Beside Audubon Park, this ornate wooden masterpiece was built in 1884 to impress people attending the World Cotton Exchange Exposition. The rooms and guest lounge are heavy with antiques, and the verandah overlooking the park and St Charles Ave is lovely.”

The best hotel we stayed at in our recent tour of Louisiana and Texas

Simply superb, the furniture and fittings made this a unique hotel to stay at

nothing to fault, if I was to mention the breakfasts were ok but not to the same standard as everything else. the fact you had to keep asking for bread for toast. But I’m being picky.

If you don't want the French Qtr, stay here!

My husband, our son and his wife met to attend the Sugar Bowl. It was perfect in that our rooms were close and shared a sitting area. Breakfast was delicious. Staff is friendly. Location was great for a walk in Audubon Park and walk to neighborhood restaurants. Always have to ride the street car. Bonus was the breakfast room that we used in the evening to play bridge. Enjoyed visiting with the owners.

It is a gorgeous old hotel. Beautiful furnishings and decorations. The front desk was especially helpful fixing the mess I made with our reservation. The breakfast and snacks were very good also. We will definitely be going back. I highly recommend the Parkview Historic Hotel.

Be prepared for no elevator. The stairs are very good exercise. The staff is very helpful carrying your luggage.

Pleasant

We enjoyed the location and the nice staff. The historic building and its decor was lovely to be around.

Breakfast was bare and we had to wait about 30 minutes for them to restock it. By the time they did, the coffee was empty too. We ended up leaving to buy breakfast 2 out of 3 days we stayed there. The bedding was rather uncomfortable with flat pillows and sparse, thin blankets. The water pitcher downstairs was not refilled and sat dirty with old fruit and water for 3 days. With a lack of a refrigerator in the room, fresh ice water would have been a nice amenity. The worst part was the large family staying there at the same time as us that allowed their children to run screaming all over the 3rd floor on Wednesday night while we tried to relax after a long day of flying. I ended up having to complain to the front desk because they were running around unsupervised on our floor. Apparently, the parents were downstairs at the hotel bar drinking.

location was perfect for us, enjoyed the trolley right out side the hotel,

it was spotty, some days excellent other days poor lack of food, example ran out of cream for coffee on Tuesday, no cream was still not available on Friday when we left, one day had biscuits, bacon and grits, no eggs, one day had great scrabbled eggs and hardly any available

enjoy a glass of wine and some sweets on the veranda, very much over rated, felt like you where begging for them, could do a much better job, explaining these programs upon check in,

great location. older house/hotel, which was very well kept.

The Hotel was beautiful and charming in a great and safe location. The park across the street was outstanding. The staff was very friendly and accommodating

The bed was awful. Older mattress and noisy. The breakfast was so-so, but we opted not to eat the second day and get a real breakfast elsewhere

Rude owner

Didn’t eat breakfast.

Owner is rude. I decided not to stay here because check in was going to be complicated at this small place after my child had a major surgery the same day. I explained why and cancelled. For some reason they emailed and ask me why again. I responded less patiently since I was repeating myself. The owner wrote a patronizing response chastising me for asking for my correct title to be used in correspondence because she and her friends don’t like using titles, telling me how to feel about their policies and communication, telling me my experience would have been better if I hadn’t using this website and instead booked directly with them, and complaining I sent a barrage of emails (I sent 3 emails, 2 of which they specifically requested, the third to cancel).

Really disappointed with this hotel. It did not live up to the reviews.

The location of this hotel is excellent. It is next to a trolley car stop and the is free parking outside on the road. The staff were very pleasant.

The room was very shabby and dark with damaged furniture, cracked sink, uncomfortable bed and towels with holes in them. There was no fridge in the room and the chairs were grubby and uncomfortable. Breakfast was badly managed. The buffet was not replenished so there was little available and the cooked breakfast offered no choice and was not well cooked.I was shocked at the number of delivery boxes abandoned on the stairs, in the hallways and on the floor of the dining room for all our four day stay. It did not appear that the hallways were vacuumed during our stay.

The worst experience ever

Only the location. Is not so far from the French quarter. Nice and safe neighborhood.

Being called a “historical” establishment does not excuse the miserable condition… Room was located on the 3rd floor with no elevator. We asked to be transferred to a lower floor, but they didn’t accommodate us. They only helped to carry only one of our luggage upon arrival. On departure, we asked for help and they refused with lame excuses… The building is very old and dilapidated, the furniture also, the floors are uneven and squeaky, the bed is unstable and the mattress lumpy and saggy. There is nowhere to sit or work in the room, the only option is a busted chair… The room doors do not lock from the outside, so zero security when you leave the room. Also, the bathroom door does not close, unless you latch it from the inside, which is extremely dangerous. The breakfast is very poor and sad, the “hot” breakfast is prepared in advance, so at 9 a.m. is no longer hot, the breakfast room is dirty. Upon arrival, we realized there was a serious issue of excess humidity in the room. The air conditioner is problematic and unable to dry out the air, and the windows do not open. The room was musty and smelly. We informed the front desk, but they didn’t do anything to solve the issue. We had to use the portable electric dehumidifier from the bathroom (!!!), but it was no help. However it is clear in the picture how much water it collected in just one night. We have stayed in a large number of hotels in many countries over the years, and this is definitely the worst one. We would not recommend it to anyone, and we absolutely would not want to return there.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the hotel. The staff was very accommodating. The bar is a very nice amenity.

It’s location was perfect for catching the trolley. St. Charles Ave. is so picturesque.
