The Columns Hotel is an 1883 National Landmark, an Uptown design-driven boutique hotel, and a beloved meeting place in New Orleans. It's housed in a three-story gilded age mansion known for its massive columns and a grand front porch. The ambiance is described as elegant, sumptuous, eclectic, with old-school charm, dark, moody, and gothic decor. It offers a unique blend of historic architecture and a vibrant bar scene.
Customers consistently praise the beautiful building, elegant furnishings, and unique decor. The staff receives high marks for being welcoming, kind, gracious, and treating guests like family, embodying New Orleans hospitality. The food is described as fantastic and delicious, and cocktails are highly rated. Positive experiences include breakfast on the veranda, dinner on the porch, and a fun atmosphere for date nights or hanging out. However, a recurring negative theme is slow service, with long waits for checks, drinks, and food orders, which can detract from the overall experience.
The hotel is known for its 'haunted rooms,' and staff sometimes offer tours with backstories. It's located on St. Charles Avenue, a beautiful site in New Orleans.
Happy hours are popular, and it's recommended for date nights or social gatherings. Breakfast on the upstairs veranda and dinner on the porch are highlighted as enjoyable experiences.
