Loved this hotel ❤️ Chose it because it was slightly out of New Orleans but easily enough to get the trolley car into and out of the hustle & bustle of city life! Very modern, great staff and perfect little restaurant across the road for breakfast (The Rabbit Hole). Would stay again if in New Orleans 👍👍👍

My husband and I stayed at the Henry Howard Hotel for our first kid-free trip in nearly 9 years! First off, our flight was delayed. I was worried about getting in late night, BUT Bryan was there to greet us. The hotel is absolutely beautiful. The attention to detail is the main take-way, the King Superior room was larger than I thought, the bed so comfortable, the stylish art A+, the coffee was even the best I have ever had at a hotel. We had a wonderful 4 romantic days. I cannot wait for the next trip already planned for September!

We had an incredible stay at the Henry Howard! The hotel is stunningly decorated -- a true New Orleans gem. The rooms were unique, spacious and so comfortable. The staff was wonderfully accommodating and gracious. We enjoyed delicious cocktails from the bar paired with serene views on the porch. The location is perfect, with most everything being an enjoyable walking distance from the hotel. We will most definitely be back. It was the perfect romantic, fun oasis to pair with the excitement of New Orleans.

What a beautiful, quintessential, real New Orleans experience. This hotel sits in a beautiful neighborhood that is safe and convenient. Many great restaurants/bars within walking distance. Very comfortable accommodations. Rooms are quaint and roomy with many room options to fit guests needs. Whether you’re a couple, a group of friends, or a family, there is a perfect option for you. The staff was second to none, very friendly and informative. Suzanne, the hotel manager, goes above and beyond to make sure your stay is perfect. It is clean and comfy. St. Charles street is one block away where you can jump on the trolly. UBER is plentiful and arrives quickly and most trips were between $5 and $10 dollars. Do not hesitate to book at the Henry Howard hotel. It’s an experience in itself.…

How do I begin to explain our love of HHH, first the beauty of the hotel begins as you drive up, enter the historic walls of this tastefully lovely and beautifully appointed home away from home. The staff seamlessly cares for your experience with first class service. On to the rooms, if you’re looking for the dreamiest bed and night of sleep you found it here, our room was spacious with a sitting area, bath and furnishings you would love to pack home! Our memories at the HHH have been many but this particular time was our nephews wedding. and topped them all!

I can't say enough good things about my first stay at the Henry Howard Hotel. The aesthetic of the facility is the perfect balance of historic, comfortable, and homey. It feels like a new building, but is clearly a historic restoration, The attention to detail throughout is impeccable. Beyond the wonderful room, lobby, common areas, etc, the staff was professional, friendly, accommodating and just a pleasure to be around. My initial interactions with Brian Nelson at the front desk made me think he must be the superstar on the staff, but I soon realized the entire staff are superstars. GM Suzanne clearly models the best in warmth and professionalism and every single person I encountered embodied those values and more. My wife and I always stay in the Lower Garden District, and this hotel is in the perfect location on Prytania with easy access to St Charles and its streetcar and business as well as close proximity to our favorite businesses on Magazine like Mojo Coffee, though Rabbit's Foot right across the street from the HHH is also a gem for coffee, breakfast, lunch, and supplies. As a regular visitor to New Orleans and the LGD, the Henry Howard Hotel is our new home in the area and we've already booked our return trip in just a few months. We were looking for the place to call our (temporary) home in New Orleans and the HHH is now that home.…

We have just stayed here for three nights and loved every single minute. From the beautiful rooms to sitting on the veranda with delicious cocktails that Brian made, our whole time at Henry Howard Hotel was wonderful. Breakfast acrid the road at the Rabbit Hole was also delicious and just around the corner is the St. Charles street car to get you into town. A huge recommendation from us if you are planning a trip to New Orleans.

Wow. I can't say enough about this charming little boutique hotel. I had a room on the 2nd floor with a balcony with seating looking out onto the street. The bed and bathroom were really tastefully done. It was scorching hot but the hotel common areas and rooms were very comfortable. The staff was extremely courteous and well healed. Wait until you meet Brian, who will make you any kind of cocktail that you'd like and offer suggestions on others which we had never heard of. He is delightful and entertaining with lore and trivia to boot. What a gem!!

I've stayed here twice on separate occasions and will always book here when visiting. Location is great for walks around the Garden district and good bites to eat. The staff is some of the best there is in Nola. Each one of them go above and beyond to make your stay there special and memorable and will always thank Brian for his hospitality and charisma.

My wife and I just returned from an anniversary trip to NOLA with a stay at the Henry Howard. We have frequented NOLA over the years and prefer (these days) to stay Uptown/Garden District but had never stayed at the HHH. Kinda stumbled into it. It looked like a good location for what we were looking for so we gave it a try and are glad we did. This would be certainly be characterized as a boutique hotel with just 18 rooms. The Hotel is lovely and the rooms are what you would expect from this type of property. Beds were comfortable and our room was quiet. Te location was great within walking distance to St Charles and Magazine Streets and quick drives to the restaurants we were interested in. (Commanders is a 6 block walk or a 3 min drive). The Rabbits Foot (right across the street) was a nice surprise for a local breakfast/coffee/lunch spot. The staff and service was top notch Brittney was accommodating at checkin and Brian who was there late afternoon was just outstanding. Brian doubles as Hotel staff, concierge, host and he can mix a fine drink. He was great. We had some interaction with Suzanne the GM and you can see why things work so well. Overall a great experience and we highly recommend. …
