This hotel had a wonderful ambiance, a fantastic bar with a knowledgeable bartender, and a staff with excellent restaurant recommendations. I was so happy with this hotel that I felt like I had won the lottery when I arrived in the lobby (which, incidentally, is lined with crimson ottomans and lit with flickering candles). International house offers a bit of cerebral serenity in a very decadent town.

out of value="10""Good stay"
Reviewed by Monique of Chicago on Nov 25, 2009
The stay did not start out very promising, as somehow hotels.com and International House had miscommunicated and IH had our reservation down for the previous month. I showed them my confirmation email and they found us a room, but this could have been disastrous. Otherwise, the room was good, nice tall ceilings, loved the iPod docking station and the Aveda products, and the bed and pillows were great. Not quite the hotel room pictured on their website, but good enough. The ceiling fan was a bit ridiculous, it's top speed barely rotated, providing no cooling, but the atmosphere temp controls were wonderful. The bathtub also would not plug properly so my supposedly relaxing bath was interrupted by the sound of constantly draining water. Also, I was irritated by the fact that I had to sign this contract saying I wouldn't smoke in the room (which I don't do anyway) and then when I got to my room, it definitely smelled of smoke. They promptly relocated me, but the room still didn't smell as clean and fresh as I would expect of a high star hotel. Even on the sixth floor, the sound of music loudly from somewhere below continued through the night, but that is expected of New Orleans I suppose. All these rather negative perspectives aside, the stay was good, the staff were super helpful and positive and upbeat, and we slept well, and for the price, it was worth it (I hit a sale for rates).

We visited New Orleans to see the Saints play the Panthers. This hotel is unique and conveniently located equidistant from Bourbon St., the Riverwalk, and the Superdome. Amazing food is located justblocks away. We would suggest Mother's (be prepared to wait in line but grab a famous bloody mary while you wait), Red Fish on Bourbon, and Mr. B's Bistro on Royal. It was also nice to be a couple blocks off of Canal/Bourbon to avoid the college crowd late at night. We will definitely stay here next time we venture to New Orleans.

Reviewed by Jennifer of Washington, DC on Nov 8, 2009
The IH lobby/bar area was beautiful (definitely a good happy hour spot for guests and partygoers), but the room didn't quite live up to the initial impression. The room was on the small side, not a big con since we spent very little time in the room itself. However, the furniture was very worn and both the small bedside table and the tiny lamp table were flimsy and uneven, which couldn't be ignored since there was no other storage space in the room. Our bathroom floor space was considerable, but, to our consternation, the sink area itself was extremely tiny (and consumed by the hotel provided tray & toiletries, which weren't replenished our entire stay) and there were no shelves in the shower or the rest of the bathroom. The light in the bathroom --and the room--was terribly dim. The strange terrycloth 'towel' bath curtain was stained, as was the bedspread, and the room itself was dusty. While the bed was comfortable, the pillows were ridiculously soft and we were forced to use our travel pillows for comfort. The room was supposed to include a flat screen TV but did not. There was still no available room service in the hotel (the restaurant was open but kept restricted hours), and the recommended delivery menus left in the room were outdated, though again, this only became an issue once since we were out and about most of the time. Absolutely no problems with noise--the room was extraordinarily quiet--and our limited interaction with the staff was pleasant. The selection of CDs by local artists in the room was a nice touch, but the CD player didn't work properly, and the CDs were available for purchase for $20 when local stores and online vendors offered them for $9.99. With the emphasis on local culture, it was a shame the hotel offered no local papers or event goings-on, only the national daily for the 13th grade (you know the one). The location of the IH is its biggest draw, as we walked comfortably to Bourbon, the WWII museum and various other must-sees. I must

Reviewed by Chris of Miami on Nov 5, 2009
After reading the other comments, I was very excited about staying at this hotel. The lobby was great, but the room was such a disappointment. It was small with tiny windows, a TV set at least 15 years old with a broken remote, and a bathroom with nowhere to put your toiletries. The hair dryer broke the first day, and the toilet broke the last. The staff was very helpful, but nothing could make us forget the terrible room.

Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Oct 4, 2009
My wife and I arrived at the hotel at night. The lobby, bar, elevators, and hallways looked nice. We got up to our room, opened the door and looked at each other in shock and started laughing. We couldn't believe how small and uninviting the room was! Barely any room to fit our bags. No counter space in the bathroom. The first night the air conditioning couldn't keep the room comfortable, even with the ceiling fan on. The windows were so thin we could hear EVERYTHING on the street. The bed was very uncomfyand the TV was ancient. We ended up getting no sleep the first night. In the morning I spoke to the front desk about leaving. The wanted us to stay so they changed our room to hopefully a better room. The next room was a bit better larger but smelled like mold. Still another uncomfortable bed, poor air conditioning, and ancient TV witha remote control that didn't work. We went right across the street and booked a room for the next 2 nights over at another hotel. This hotel has great customer service from the staff, but the hotel itself is not worth it at all!!! I don't know how it is getting such high reviews from other people. Don't be fooled by the pictures and good reviews.

Reviewed by Brad of Los Angeles on Sep 10, 2009
While the hotel is well situated, it has seen better days. The rooms are very drab and decorated in beige tones from 1992. For a supposedly hip, boutique hotel, they are missing modern amenities like flat screen tv's and ipod hookup sounds systems. It WAS nice to have free wi-fi, but that didn't make up for the overall appearance of the room. Also, people should know that as a boutique hotel, room service is over by 10pm. In a city like New Orleans when people get home much later than that, you are out of luck if you want to order anything "after hours".

After reading the reviews I thought I would be blown away with excellent customer service. I wasn't. First, when we arrived at the hotel there was no one to help direct us with parking and unloading our luggage. Quite frankly, there was no where to park to check-in. It was confusing. When we finally made it into the hotel lobby I was impressed. As I walked to the hotel desk I was expecting the best. The two hotel employees did not speak to me as I approached the desk. As a matter-of-fact, I was the first to speak. Overall, our stay was ok. The rooms were super clean! This hotel may be rated 4 stars, but they must make every customer feel like a "Guest".

Thank you for recommending "International House" on Camp St. for our recent overnight stay in New Orleans. It was a very hip place to stay, and it was very close to the French Quarter.

The staff provided very friendly service. And the hotel was very clean. The bar in the lobby area was decorated with beautiful chandeliers and chic furniture and is a popular one from what I hear.
