Le Richelieu

Planning a New Orleans vacation, but don’t have unlimited funds? Check in to Le Richelieu. In the quiet part of the French Quarter, this is one of the best bargains in town.

The 86 guestrooms (including 17 suites) are located in two historic buildings. All are non-smoking and air-conditioned, and have traditional décor and brass ceiling fans. Room amenities include refrigerators, Wi-Fi, TVs and telephones with in-room voicemail. Choose from regular guestrooms: single or double, twin, or double/double. Or pick a suite, including the Paul McCartney Suite (he stayed at the hotel for two months), Honeymoon Suite and VIP Suite. Room rates range from $89 to $250; suite prices range from $159 to $325.

If you’re visiting New Orleans in the spring or summer months, a swimming pool is essential, so chill out in Le Richelieu’s saltwater pool in the lush courtyard. Need a bite to eat? The Crescent City is full of yummy choices, and you can start your day in the hotel’s Terrace Café. Or, wind down for the evening in the Terrace Lounge.

One special bonus for guests traveling by car (or rental car, as the case may be) is free self-parking—the only French Quarter hotel to offer such a convenience.
