Fodor's Expert Review Le Richelieu in the French Quarter

Guests appreciate the personal friendliness of this old-fashioned, budget-friendly hotel, as well as nice touches such as the outdoor saltwater pool—all at a moderate rate in a great location. Some of the traditionally styled rooms have mirrored walls, walk-in closets, and brass ceiling fans; suites have small kitchens. You can request a balcony room (no extra fee) when you reserve. An intimate bar and café is off the courtyard, with tables on the terrace by the pool. Many regular customers wouldn't stay anywhere else.
