8/10 Very good

The hotel was a lovely old classic New Orleans house in the French quarter. The room felt a bit run down but it was beautiful and had big wraparound balcony out front. The rooms were a great size and the staff were lovely and helpful. Overall, good value for money.

My family and I stayed 2 nights at Rathbone Mansions we really enjoyed our stay! The room was perfect my youngest son is 10 he loved the pool and getting to swim at night. The lady that checked us in was super sweet and even recommend some places to eat within walking distance. I highly recommend if I’m ever this way again I’ll definitely be back!

Enjoyable stay

We took this trip as a family. This motel was affordable for us. Its ran by American people. Its clean and for the most part pretty quiet. I felt safe here. The pool and hot tub were nice. If we needed anything the front desk was on it and got it to us in a timely manner. This is an old hoise built in the 1850's. Don't expect like a Holiday Inn. I really got the Lousiana feel staying here. Our room had a pull out couch, 2 beds, table, fridge, plates, bowls, silverware, microwave. Food gets pricey in New Orleans. So having that space came in handy.
Amanda, 6-night trip

8/10 Very good

Rathbone is very cozy and charming, and conveniently located. There were a few minor things that could be improved-- the kitchen sink in the room needed a new aerator (it sprayed water to the sides), and the lights in the pool area wouldn't turn on so it was a bit dark at night.
Alex, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Would definitely stay here again. Staff were super friendly and helpful. Great communication both before and during our stay. Well located to explore both the French Quarter & Frenchman Street areas which are both walkable within 10 mins. Felt very safe and plenty of on street free parking in addition to the hotels off street secure parking. Also had a great pool area, water was ideal temperature to cool off on a hot humid day

Nice place with great outside pool area.

Lovely place that was nicer than expected. The courtyard, pool area are wonderful and quiet for the area. The general area isn't very walkable in terms of amenities unless you're headed to Bourbon street, but otherwise was a very pleasant stay.
Stephen, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The only issues i have is our room the water in shower never got hot it barely got luke warm. Also not know that where we stayed we had walk across the street to main location to go swim. On website it never mention that they have two housing locations. Finally house keeping never came by to empty the trash daily. However it was nice to have little kitchenette with microwave and little refrigerator to keep things cold such as left overs. Also you are very close in driving to french quarter and canal street and city park. Also having roku tv so you can log into your streaming services to watch what you want.

The manager, Kiki was rude and not accommodating upon speaking to her on 4 different occasions! The rooms were nice and comfortable. The tv was difficult to operate and connect to the wifi.
