    Both elevators broke when we were there. However the front desk made it up to us.

    Location is perfect. Rooftop Bar is exceptional. Kay at the front desk was super friendly. The attached restaurant had good food.

    The hot water in the shower was hit and miss. The biggest issue was that they only had one working elevator. Had I known I would have requested a lower floor. One night when we returned from dinner there was a line out the door to access the elevator to the rooftop bar. As hotel guest we were able to jump the line. They had a security guard on the first floor but then once on the elevator riders could exit any floor. They need a dedicated elevator that only goes to the rooftop and another for hotel guest.

    The Pontchartrain is a charming hotel, the rooms are decorated with a boho feel. The beds were comfortable

    We were on the 11th floor and the water pressure was poor.

    I love the old Art Deco vibe of faded elegance.

    the elevator was inoperable once but repaired immediately. upon our arrival, the guests next to us were smoking, we notified the front desk and were moved immediately to another room.

    The location was amazing! Staff was quick to address any requests. On-site restaurant, Jack Rose, was beautiful and delicious on a rainy afternoon. There was no need to leave our hotel. The St Charles Streetcar arrives in front of the hotel, easy access to Uptown and French Quarter while sightseeing. You can enjoy a drink at the downstairs bar or take it up to your room to enjoy.

    It met all of our expectations. Wish we could have ordered speciality coffees in Bar area.

    The location is fabulous with a trolley stop & Hop on/ Off Bus right across the street. We stayed for 7 days in a suite ( rm. 312) as our adult daughter met us there to celebrate the holidays. The suite gave us the extra room desired with dresser space in 2 distinct areas which helped when 3 of us getting dressed AM or PM. Bathroom had an additional tall cabinet for toiletries. Coffee table provided a great space for this game loving family. Any request made was fulfilled promptly even during busy holiday & Sugar Bowl . Impressive how they had staff operate elevator with priority to hotel guests b4 patrons for roof top bar. Staying here was a rare splurge for us but DiJon & Iris at desk and Edwardo & another doorman made it a truly memorable stay. We did not try restaurants as we enjoy vegan choices & so many great ones reached by trolley. Even vegan dining was exceptional in the Big Easy. Do try Avenue cafe one block to the right which amazed us for breakfast 4x!

    The elevator was out and we were on the 11th floor. Would have liked a courtesy call to advise the elevator was not working.

    The location was ideal! The street car stops right in front, they have a great Bar with live music every night, the Jack Rose Restaurant is AMAZING and the rooftop bar was an added bonus. Overall, it was a great stay and would definitely recommend and stay there again. Special thank you to Tiffany and Kate at the front desk/check in for their exceptional service and customer service.
