Opened in 1886, the Monteleone is the largest hotel in the French Quarter (and was home to Truman Capote's parents when he was born!), and it seems to keep getting bigger without losing a trace of its trademark charm. Because of its size, you can almost always get a reservation here, even when other...

The Monteleone's Hunt Room Grill is just the spot for diners who abhor natural light (the low-slung dining room is windowless) and enjoy the intimacy of dark woods and clubby antique game prints in classic frames. The contemporary American food of chef Randy Buck includes a cream-free, Creole-style ...

Unlike most French Quarter hotels with long pedigrees, this property does not have a jumbled history of multiple owners and uses. The Monteleone has always been the Monteleone, although a recent $64 million renovation saw the installation of marble and granite in the bathrooms and a refurbished lobb...

Hotel Monteleone is a beautiful historic hotel, two blocks from Canal Street just inside the French Quarter and with a few minor flaws, a wonderful first class property.

Disappointed - user review
We chose this hotel based on some reviews we read on travel guides, but we were disappointed. We realized that "historic" is just a euphemism for "really, really old." The facade and the lobby are beautiful, but our room was very, very shabby. The bathroom was pitifully outdated....
