4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 June 2013 NEW

I spent one night over Memorial Day weekend. I liked the location on St. Charles Avenue, though my taxi took me to the Avenue Plaza Hotel, instead. I guess this is why they're changing their name to the Historic Car Hotel. My room was on the second floor at the front of the building, which had a small balcony for... More

I stayed here for 3 nights at the end of May and I had a wonderful experience. My room, and the whole establishment was so quaint, I absolutely loved it. There was internet and 24 hour coffee. There was a good variety for breakfast, and you could sit out on the patio and eat which was delightful. Glinda, one of... More

This was our first visit to New Orleans. We stayed for 3 nights starting on May 5th, 2013. We were referred by a lady at the Welcome Centre. I viewed the room before agreeing to register. We were a little concerned at first about the street parking and the flight of stairs located at the end of a long hallway... More

Brontosaurus judge this book by it cover. Looks nice when you drive up but this place is filthy.

We stayed in this hotel during the week of May 20 and found it to be delightful. The colorful and historic aspects of this hotel helped to add to our total New Orleans experience that we would not have had in a sterile modern hotel. We stayed in room 18 that is pictured on their site containing two queen beds... More

I love old historic hotels. And this one is great! Yes, it is an old building (built as a home in 1897). So it is NOT the Marriott or other chain hotel. If you love character, creaking floors, and original (YES! ORIGINAL) hall carpeting (that is in beautiful condition!), then this hotel is for you! Plus it is right on... More

This hotel has a great location in the Garden District of New Orleans. It is right by three great eateries and a streetcar stop. The hotel staff are great; friendly and helpful. The hotel does need updating, which the new owners are busy doing. Overall the hotel is clean and has a safe feeling. About a 5-10 minute streetcar ride... More

We visit family in New Orleans on a fairly regular basis and for the last 4 years have stayed at the Avenue Garden on St. Charles Ave. which is so conveniently located in the Garden District just steps away from a street car stop and several decent to good restaurants.

Although the staff at the "Hotel" was very helpful and nice, the "hotel" was lacking. First there is no parking available. You have to park on the street wherever you can find a spot...around the block behind the hotel was the best we could do... and hope your car is safe. Next after checking in we had to down a... More
