Dauphine Orleans Hotel: The place to stay    Check Rates

    • Dauphine Orleans Hotel - New Orleans
    by Smarr
    111 room French Quarter hotel embodies the essence of Old New Orleans. Listen closely and you can hear the mesmerizing sounds of jazz carried by breezes from the Mississippi River through your open windows. The 14 rooms of the Dauphine Patio occupy the home of an early 19th century merchant who directed that the structure be built of nothing but the best country bricks and cypress. Jacuzzis are featured in some of the suites. In every room, you will find a hair dryer, bathrobes, goosedown pillows, body pillows, irons and ironing boards, a valuables vault, and a self-serve minibar. When you return to your room each evening, you will be delighted to find that your bed has been turned down and a treat left on your pillow.

    The past blends seamlessly into the present in the Dauphine Orleans Hotel, which boasts a history almost as old and rich as the Crescent City itself. Records of the Dauphine Orleans' site date from 1775, and several of the original structures have survived the test of time. One of the most notable jewels is what is now known as the Audubon Cottage where, from 1821-22, John James Audubon painted his famous "Birds of America" series. The restored cottage now serves as the hotel's main meeting room.

    • I booked my parents here, and they were satisfied with this hotel. The lobby is small, and parking lot, also cramped, but really for the location, it wasn't surprising. They were charging about $160/night for 2 adults and my parents stayed the weekend. It is definitely not as comfortable as a Hilton or Marriott, but it does have some sort of New Orleans charm.

    My parents had a balcony, overlooking the parking lot, but still, the architecture was cute. The location is perfect if you are looking to party on Bourbon which is one street over. Dauphine is a nice street, however tourists don't realize that the other way is the Housing Projects of NOLA. Bad news!

    So we found the reason that the room rates were cheaper was that they were doing construction and renovation. But before I booked, I was looking at their pictures on their website. Which, to say the least, are misleading. It is more generic than what the hotel claims, as a hotel with history related to Audobon. But, the location, once again, is very convenient~

    The lady was nice in the lobby, but the elevators are small and old! They probably can fit about 4 people comfortably, but once again, part of that New Orlean's charm. I would recommend this hotel, more like inn, to someone that is looking to go down and party up on Bourbon. Although surprisingly quiet for where it is, there are drunks that wander into the area and a taxis get pretty annoying. All in all, not a spectacular hotel, I think next time I am going to try to reserve at the Hilton, which is really not that much more!

    Great location right next to Bourbon St. so close to parties, strip clubs, restuarants....

    Dauphine Orleans Hotel: My Newest Favorite    Check Rates

    • My newest go-to hotel is definitely the Dauphine Orleans located in the heart of the French Quarter, one street up from Bourbon. From the moment we arrived we were greeted with only the best customer service I have ever received from hotel staff in NOLA, plenty of smiles, a large room with a flat screen TV, a clean and beautiful pool, great continental breakfast, free welcome cocktails, free internet access, and historic hotel bar May Baily's (which once use to be a brothel back in the 1800's!).

    There really isn't too much I can say in the negative sense about the Dauphine. Even for the location and proximity to Bourbon Street, the festive noises were never heard and I got some of the best sleep I have ever received in their cozy king-sized bed.

    I will definitely be returning to this hotel in the future - especially with the return visit coupons they gave us upon check-out.

    Thank you Dauphine!

    • This was a great place to stay in N.O. It's right in the action of the French Quarter but also very peaceful. The Courtyard swimming pool was a little small but very relaxing & pretty.

    • A nice little hotel in the French Quarter with a quiet courtyard outside the room. The service was friendly and at $89/night was about the cheapest hotel in town. I would stay here again.

    A mid-size hotel at the heart of the French Quarter, just one block from bustling Bourbon Street. Dauphine hotel also has and easy access to Canal Street. Despite its central location, the hotel offers an unbelievably tranquil atmosphere, with a small pool and private patio. The room itself is a blend between 'old' (in a good, classic way) and new (e.g. flat-screen TV)...basic but clean and cozy. All the people there are nice and helpful. ((Special tip: Book with the hotel directly to get a better price.))

    Comparing to other hotels in the area, this one is the most affordable. High quality service at 2-star price.
