I have mixed feelings about our stay at the hotel. The hotel did allow us to move our reservation during the recent snow storm without any additional fee, for which we were very grateful. We had a great time at the various restaurants and bars that are on property. Unfortunately, most everything else was disappointing. The front desk staff ranged from indifferent to downright hostile, they charged us for parking and an extra night stay (we had no car and had prepayed for our entire stay) and as other folk have noted - room photos are likely many years old. It's important to note that the rooms are locked with old school keys and you are required to leave your key with the front desk everytime you leave the hotel. We had several items stolen from our room during our stay. When we tried to work with the hotel on either recovering our items or figuring out how someone may have gotten into our room, we were told several things: 1. We checked with housekeeping and they don't have your items, if you can't track your items then you can't prove they were taken, and as a hotel we have never had this problem before. I'm not sure how other hotels deal with stolen items but these folks seem not interested in customer service or taking accountability for what seems to be, if you read other reviews, an ongoing problem. Stay at your own risk.

The rooms were not clean, there was no ventilation in the room, they were old and musty, they charge you a ridiculous Resort fee that gives you little to nothing in exchange, the bathroom amenities were lacking, it was hard to adjust the temperature in the room. There's a cute Bar and Restaurant in the building that's probably their best asset.

When I decided to go to NOLA for a solo trip I knew I wanted to stay in a “boutique” property verses something large and commercial. The Pontchartrain came up in my search. The thing that attracted me right away were the aesthetics. I loved the colors and decorating style from the 1920s. I was not disappointed when I arrived! I loved my room. I loved the two restaurants I dined in regularly: 1. The Bayou and 2. The breakfast one across the hall (can’t remember the name). But try the grits, coddled egg and hollandaise breakfast with buttered toast. One of the most memorable breakfasts of my entire lifetime!! This hotel is also in a lovely location: the garden district, and a streetcar goes by right out front. I will definitely be going back to NOLA and this is where I will stay.

Not a well kept property, things like windows painted shut scream amateur hour. I had to request to have my room cleaned at 5:00 pm two day out of five. With the added "resort fee," not a good value at all!
