The Cornstalk Hotel

Love the style and attention to detail. It’s a beautiful building. The courtyard is a lovely spot to sit with a glass of wine. We loved the staff during our stay.

While I understand the age and limitations of a building this age, there is a little bit of wear and tear on the old gal. There are no small fridges or ice buckets to chill beverages. Bathrooms are small with limited counter space. We had to change rooms out of the Elvis room as the door frame into the restroom was too short for my husband - it hit him between the eyes!! Probably not a good mix for late evenings and cocktails. But these are minor hiccups, we would stay here again.

Location was far enough away from noisy bourbon but close enough to pop on over to bourbon street, French market, Jackson Square and cafe du monde.

Only downside is while they offer onsite parking; it is just a huge driveway so if the driveway is full sometimes they get frustrated with you having them move all the cars to let you out. So this hotel I’d say is more for if you’re planning on parking your car and walking/Lyft/ubering everywhere. We have family and sights we wanted to see outside of the quarter as well and had to keep bothering the poor staff to keep moving cars to let us out. Again; NOT a negative thing, just something to think about if you decide to stay here to be mindful of the staff having to constantly move cars for you. :)

Great location and a historical building
