I have just made reservations at this hotel
for 3 nights in June 2000. Has anyone stayed here and can give me comments about their stay, good or bad? Also, is 3 nights enough time for a first time visitor to New Oleans?
I'd like to stay 4 nights but my husband thinks 3 nights will be enough.

I live near this hotel and stayed there once years ago. I haven't been in it in at least five years, but there are regular posters on this forum that swear by it. BRIAN IN ATLANTA stays there - maybe he can give you some insight. It's a good location - close to the action but not directly in the middle of the noise. I say stay for 4 nights, so you can slow your pace down a little. It will already be pretty hot heear and you should take your time seeing what you want to see here. Enjoy!

Do a search for "Dauphine Orleans" under Louisiana and you'll get a lot of info. Be patient, the search feature is slow, but try again if you get timed out.

We still like the Dauphine Orleans a lot. It's starting to show its wear (we had trouble with the heat last time) but it still has great people and a great location. Get one of the 3rd floor Dauphine street balcony rooms. It's quiet at night.

Three nights = three dinners. Sounds like enough time to me.

We stayed there last year. I loved the place. Ask for a room with a balcony, also they have evergreen rooms. Purified water and robes, I absolutely loved it. Very quaint and privite, nice courtyard with pool, ususally had the pool to ourselves as well as the courtyard. This place is wonderful.

Just returned from NO and it was our first trip. 4 nites is a must. Also remember it is very warm there now.
