Bottom Line

Hotel Le Marais is a mid-range boutique located in the heart of the French Quarter, set half a block from both Bourbon and Royal Streets. Its 66 rooms are contemporary and well-sized, albeit a bit bland and generic, and some have furnished balconies. Quality amenities consist of flat-screen TVs, coffeemakers, bathrobes, and free Wi-Fi, though there are no mini-fridges and many guests have complained of noise from the street, neighboring rooms, and elevators. Great freebies include daily breakfasts with hot and cold fare, welcome drinks at the bar, and in-room bottled water. The highlight here is arguably the lovely courtyard with a small heated saltwater pool and ample seating. This is a good pick for travelers wanting a hotel with a quiet atmosphere that's still near all the action. It's worth comparing rates with the similar, but more charming Hotel Mazarin.
