Lamothe House Hotel

À propos de ce lieu Lamothe House Hotel

Lamothe House is a historic mansion hotel on Esplanade Avenue at the precise boundary between the French Quarter and the Faubourg Marigny — a location that makes it equally well-placed for exploring the Bourbon Street gay bars and the Marigny's arts scene. The building is an antebellum mansion; the hotel uses the original architecture rather than working around it, which means the public spaces retain the scale and detail of a 19th-century New Orleans house of some ambition. The courtyard and garden are among the hotel's defining features. Lamothe House is consistently recommended by LGBTQ+ visitors for the combination of its welcoming atmosphere, its architectural character, and its position at the hinge between the French Quarter and the Marigny. The Marigny is increasingly important to gay visitors to New Orleans — the Frenchmen Street music scene, the Golden Lantern, and the neighbourhood's arts and gallery culture make it a compelling complement to the Bourbon Street circuit. Staying at Lamothe House means being within walking distance of both. Esplanade Avenue itself is one of New Orleans' most beautiful streets — a tree-lined boulevard of historic mansions that is genuinely lovely for a morning walk before the day begins.
