International House Hotel

Me and my boyfriend, Keith, were VERY pleased with your hotel. I honestly have no complaints! The staff were friendly and helpful. Actually, our bartender, Eric, was extremely helpful in terms of suggesting great restaurants and must-see sites. This really helped, as there are so many restaurants in the travel books! The lobby is lovely and clean. We liked the artwork, the Bukowski collage on the 3rd floor, and the room off the lobby, that was interesting. Our room was nice and the bed was pretty comfortable. The chambermaids did a good job! Even the doorman was nice! We liked the Bigelow products (I actually live near Bigelow's!!). The lemony ice water in the lobby was good! So was the coffee, and the area around the coffee pot was clean.

Hi The only complaint I have was about the bathroom! I would have liked liquid soap, or a 2nd soap dish, as it was messy to deal with the bar of soap at the sink! Oh, it would have been nice to have had ice cube trays in the freezer! It would have been nice to have had a hand held shower attachment, too! It would have been good if the restaurant next to the lobby would have been open.

staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Room was very clean and comfortable. the hotel lobby and bar has a stylish, welcoming feel. location was perfect for us, walkable to the French quarters. it wasn’t too loud and felt safe, nice coffee shop around the corner.

nothing.

Whether you’re driving through New Orleans like my family and I were, or looking for a chill place to get drinks, the International Hotel should be on your short list of options. From its (surprising) art gallery featuring original Banksey paintings/street/visual art to the cozy bar, this Hotel had more than we bargained for. If you like the look of the pictures, it’s even better in person. We had a great bartender who gave us a really interesting history lesson on the building and its place in New Orleans growth. I will definitely go back.

The cleaning products smelled really strongly. It was over 100 degrees when we were staying so we didn’t want to open the windows. The room was really clean though.

Location good, staff nice, room comfortable enough and clean. I didn't get a chance to check out the fitness center, and I didn't have one of the fancier rooms with balcony and so on, but I liked my view. I felt happy there and would go again even though I didn't get truly wowed by special features. Something I did and do like, though, is that it's an individual place and doesn't have that mass-produced feeling of a chain. And the entryway and bar are pretty, and the outside architecture is great.

Free wifi kept cutting off and on, and there were some guests (family with noisy kids and a little chaos) who made noise in the halls for a little while late at night, but they stopped pretty soon.

Friendly staff greeted us in a lobby that was beautifully airconned after the hot streets of New Orleans and it smelled really good too! Everyone seems to get a free welcome drink token for their cocktail bar which was a fun surprise, the bar area was really nice, although bar tender obnoxious. Room was nice, bed comfy and it had a decent shower that was hot and had good water pressure. No coffee machine in room but they provide free coffee downstairs from 6am every morning. Easy walking distance to Bourbon Street, the lighthouse for Grey Line collection for the Bayou tour, The French Market, Old Man River, etc. We really liked staying here!

The guys on reception were absolutely lovely. As were the housekeeping team who we bumped into in the elevators every now and again. But I would like to say that the bar tender was rude and haughty and made us a bit uncomfortable. Was entertaining some people sitting at the bar and ignoring everyone else. Saw two different guys wait over 10 mins to make a drinks order while the bar tender chatted, ignoring their presence at the bar completely, too absorbed in showing off for the others. When I went to the bar and ordered some cocktails, he stopped laughing and joking, rolled his eyes and made me feel awkward, like I was interupting him and irritating him, despite the fact I was perfectly friendly and polite. Bad vibes from that one guy!

The International House Hotel is the perfect location.... centrally located between the French Quarter and the Central Business district. Everything was a short walk or uber/lyft ride away. The staff was exceptional! Shout out to Reggie for all of the great eatery recommendations and Chris for taking care of my last minute concierge request. The art exhibit in the hotel was beautiful and the lobby playlist was great! The bar experience is definitely one-of-a-kind in a good way. The hotel is a vibe all on its own!

I was really disappointed in our room. It did not have the usual amenities one comes to expect in a boutique hotel room like a full dresser and microwave. The room was also a bit small, with not a lot of room for my partner and I to move around or place our belongings. There was only a small closet to hang a few clothing items, three small drawers, and a small refrigerator. The decor in the room was definitely underwhelming. The exterior and the lobby space built my anticipation but the hotel room was definitely a let down.

The hotel is very convenient for the French Quarter and for catching street cars to other sights. In spite of this it our room was very quiet. The staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel was very clean and well cared for. It was good to have coffee available from early morning at the bar. We appreciated all the art work and especially the Banksy.

Our room was spacious and comfortable except because of the layout one side of the bed didn't have room for a bedside table and so there was no reading light at that side.

Nice hotel in a good location, close to the French Quarter. Staff were friendly and helpful. The Banksy art was an interesting feature and added to the young and fun vibe of International House. Really good to have an on site bar. It was usually buzzing and the bar tenders were great.

As visitors from Southern Spain we found the bar prices somewhat on the high side but they were probably in line with other hotel bars in the area.

the place is ok, nothing over the top (defined not a boutique hotel) and just the right place if you want to be close to the action and away from the noises.

as i mentioned, this is not a boutique hotel, just as regular as others can be. the charge you an extra 17usd for amenities (to keep clean the facilities etc) which i find it ridiculous as it supposed to be what they should do right? staff is not friendly, the seem to be mot happy and it felt almost like they were doing me a favor to let me stay there. anyway, this must has been just my perception and not the rule. But be ware of the charge as it is per day.

it was so pretty inside and the location was wonderful.

the rooms were small.
