Help me choose in French Quarter, New Orleans?

I think I'm down to choosing between 3 hotels in October, please help me choose. Location is really key, we need to be within easy walking distance of the sites due to a slight disability. Safety is key too. Has to be under $200 per night. We will not have a car, so parking not an issue. I've done a bit more research since my last post, and here are my 3 choices.

- Lafitte Guest House $199
- Dauphine Orleans $175
- Bienville $198

Let me know your thoughts, or if I've really missed one I should consider. Thanks, annieladd

Dauphine. Not by price, by reputation.
The Omni would be my second choice.

I'll go for Dauphine Orleans also. At the price compared to the others, it's the best.

Dauphine Orleans has always been our choice in NO. Great value for excellent location & very nice rooms. You can't go wrong.

you may want to consider hotel monteleone. not sure but it may come in at under 200 and it a block or so from bourbon st. it is less than 10 minutes to cafe dumond and is really in a good location. also has hottub and pool onsite. indoors. enjoyed my stay there earlier this year

Monteleone was over our $200 budget. I thought Bienville would get more votes. Any others, let me know.

Other question, I know we want to go to Commander's Palace, I ate there many years ago. Would you recommend Saturday night dinner or Sunday brunch?
