hotel st pierre new orleans

I have seen very mixed reviews about hotel st pierre. Although most of bad ones have been old. Does anyone have any recent knowledge about this place. Location and parking sound good and photo on ta look good

I%26#39;ve had two different friends who stayed there several years ago (more old reviews for you!) and the place wasn%26#39;t very good. It%26#39;s quite possible that it got a post-Katrina upgrade, however. If the recent tripadvisor reviews are good, then it may be worth a shot. Do remember that the hotel is older (old plumbing, etc), has several buildings and will likely have a lot of charm. Some people like historic properties, others prefer the generic ';I know what I%26#39;m getting'; Marriotts. The St. Pierre is no Marriott. :-)

I stay there about twice a year. My most recent trip was Dec. 2008. I%26#39;ve written a couple of the reviews about the St. Pierre on here.

Bottom line is that it%26#39;s an older hotel with some old hotel issues, but they%26#39;ve improved a lot over time. Like the other person said, this ain%26#39;t on Marriott. Some room are better than others. On my Dec. trip I had to change rooms. I liked the room they moved me to. I%26#39;m planing another trip in May.

Depends on what you want and what you are going to do. The St. Pierre is just around the corner from my apt. I walk by it everyday. The staff is nice and courteous, helpful if someone stops and asks a question. The hotel itself is in 3-4 old NOLA style townhouses and though I haven%26#39;t stayed there, I have stayed in similar places before my apt. They are comfortable,usually clean, but worn. The floor plans are not normal for chain hotels since these older places used to be homes.Some of the rooms even open onto the street. If you like Marriott or Holiday Inn, then you might not like St. Pierre. Think about a visit to an old aunt that you loved. Older furnishings, older bathroom, but an adventure, and usually less expensive than a big hotel. The St. Pierre is well located and safe to walk to at night...just two blocks off the 800 block of Bourbon. The small parking lot is just across the street. If you like to spend a lot of time in the hotel, then I would go for a big chain, if you love to walk in the quieter area of the Quarter and be surrounded by locals folks,local restaurants and older charm (remember some of the Quarter homes are @200 years old), then the St. Pierre might fit the bill. For comparison, other similar establishments might be the St. Peter House, Villa Convento.

I stayed there about 6 years ago. It was a nightmare. The toilet ran all night. There were water stains on the ceiling. A drunk tried to bust into our room at 4 AM. Parking was like 3 blocks away at 15.00 a pop.

STAY SOMEWHERE ELSE.

If you are driving parking could be a problem and I assume you are driving..if you stay at the St Pierre.
