Chateau Hotel

Twelve blocks from Canal Street, Chateau Hotel occupies a Creole townhouse on Chartres Street in the French Quarter's quieter lower end, past most of Bourbon Street's late-night noise. Wrought-iron balconies and a courtyard fountain mark the original 19th-century structure.

The three-star property suits couples and repeat Quarter visitors who want walkable access to Frenchmen Street's jazz clubs without paying Bourbon Street premiums. Jackson Square and the Cabildo are a ten-minute walk north.

Parking is off-site, arranged through the front desk rather than on property.
