Saint John the Baptist Parish Holidays from NZ$4,235

What mattered most on this trip was the location (near many walkable points of interest, my arrival/departure location and multiple transit lines), the privacy and access to a kitchen. That last was more than adequate for my needs: a full-sized refrigerator to store breakfast items, beverages and restaurant leftovers, a toaster and microwave and, to my delight, an electric teakettle. On my arrival and first night I had to ask for clothes hangers — the room had none — and occupants down the hall were noisy. But it WAS New Orleans on a holiday weekend, and I carry earplugs when I travel. This property is one of several in the Central Business District converted from its original corporate office/headquarters use to hotel/residential. In general, the accommodation in a sturdy mid-century building worked for me; I’m not big on room service or a giant screen TV.

Will definitely be staying again, easiest access to the French Quarter which was the whole point of the trip.

Hands down the most amazing hotel I have ever stayed at. We came down for the first day of Jazz Fest and this property just made our trip spectacular. Everything was great I don’t even know where to begin, from the location, the property, the room, to check in/check out. There are so many pros, this is going to be our forever property whenever we come down to NOLA. Location: this was the cherry on top, when I say everything is walking distance I mean everything. Pack some good walking shoes, our car stayed parked in the parking lot the whole trip. We walked back from Jazz Fest(Ubers/traffic was a nightmare everywhere so we decided to walk back and made it safely) we walked down to Ruby Slipper Cafe for breakfast/brunch and grabbed some coffee and pastries down at Ayu Bakehouse( highly recommend both in your visit) Buffa’s across the street for some drinks and live music. -Room: BOOK THE FRENCHMAN SUITE!!! DO IT! HUGE, Clean, the best A/C I have had at any hotel, amazing bathroom/ shower, it was like our own little NOLA apartment, we felt right at home. -Staff was so friendly and kind from check in to check out. -Area was nice, quiet and safe! If you want to be near everything but appreciate your sleep, this is the PLACE!! Just book it, it is definitely worth every penny and more! Melrose Mansion has a customer for life.

The stay was great! The place was so clean... you cant ask for a better place to stay.

It was nice and big for me!
