We arrived for the first weekend of the Carnivale season(2/3/12). We were excited to see the first parade of the season the Krewe du Vieaux (Saturday 2/4/12). I had no idea when I booked the hotel tha the last leg of the parade route goes right now Ursiline and our balcony (Room 201) gave us a great view of the... More

This hotel is in the best place of French Quarter, 2 blocks from the French Market and 3 blocks from Bourbon Street. The hotel is very charming, and the room is nice. More

I just returned from a weeks stay at the HVC. I stayed in room #303 in the main building. The room was very quiet with very little noise. This is what I requested upon booking and Warren made that happen. The room was very comfortable and had everything that I wanted. This hotel is in the absolute perfect location for... More

I just returned from five nights at the Villa Convento. Let me state at the outset that the concierge, Lane Guidry, made this stay utterly perfect. His pleasant manner and his willingnes to do whatever asked was delightful. He made sure I had cabs quickly, and I overheard him arranging the delivery of a rental car for another guest. The... More

I read the reviews AFTER my husband booked this hotel, so I approached our stay with a little trepidation....... I was delighted to find that the hotel, while old and undergoing renovations, was very charming. Our room was in the very front of the building, on Ursulines--a fourth floor suite--large queen room with a large bathroom with jacuzzi tub and... More

My friend and I stayed in a "courtyard" room for two nights prior to a cruise. Vincent provided personal service and made us feel welcome from the moment we walked into the charming lobby. The hotel could use a bit of "sprucing up" - the towel racks in the bathroom were broken and the fountain in the courtyard could use... More

If you're looking for luxury, the latest tech advancements or a cookie cutter look, don't stay here. If you like the idea of a hotel with a history, rooms with character and a very helpful staff, the Villa Convento could be your hotel. We stayed in room 202 which had a great balcony facing Ursulines St and absolutely great water... More

This little family owned hotel is one of my favorites in N.O. The location can't be beat and I love the balcony rooms in particular. Staff is always friendly. It's not your cookie-cutter, no character, no age sort of place like a high end chain hotel, but it's comfy and has a lot of charm and character. I even love... More

Being my first trip to New Orleans, I scoured the internet looking for the best place to stay. I am so happy that I found the Villa Convento. A historic creole townhouse nestled in the French Quarter, it has the abiance of stepping back in time. The courtyard is perfect to sit and have your morning coffee or just relax... More
