From the reviews

Our time at the Chateau Hotel was WONDERFUL. The staff is so friendly, helpful, and professional - it was a delight getting to know Elaine! The hotel itself is so charming - coming back each day felt like coming into our own private hideaway.

Wow! What an amazing stay in NOLA. The Chateau was located two blocks from Bourbon St and equally close to the street car line to make day trips to the Garden District and museums. Quiet location even though it was close to Royal and Bourbon. Great restaurants nearby. Staff was great.

I stayed at the Chateau in 2023 and just realized I forgot to leave a review! I really loved my stay. The hotel has everything we needed and was close enough to everything cool for a visitor. The room was clean, everything worked as expected, and it didn’t have any weird smells.

1st time to NOLA, so I was a little worried about choosing a hotel, but the Chateau Hotel impressed me 💯🎉❤️! Right in the middle of everything I wanted to visit, comfy beds, high quality linens, gorgeous courtyards, friendly staff, off street parking, and I felt safe the whole time! No complaints from this girl 😉.

Getting married at Chateau Hotel New Orleans

A castle wedding is the once-in-a-lifetime, storybook kind — the grand staircase, the ballroom, the gardens and turrets your photos will live on forever. Castle weddings commonly run $10,000–$40,000+ depending on the date, guest count, and how much is included, so ask for a written quote for your season — Chateau Hotel New Orleans doesn’t publish a set price, and tiers move fast. Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see it at the time of day you’d actually get married — a ballroom that glows at golden hour can feel very different at noon, and you’ll want to walk the path your guests take from the gates to the ceremony to the reception. Second, bring your real questions: what’s included with the venue fee (tables, chairs, setup, teardown), the catering and bar policy, whether you can stay overnight on-site, the rain plan for a garden ceremony, and the music curfew. Fairytale dates at castle venues book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what’s open in your season before you leave.
