Testimonials

“The service at the Hotel Monteleone was exceptional. There was absolutely no issue that was not addressed timely and with satisfactory results. We were particulary impressed with how the hotel staff anticipated our needs (periodically coming by the Board Room to check with us). Numerous conference attendees commented on the quality of the food, the quality of the service and overall positive attitude toward the conference site. Particular noteworthy is the longevity of the staff and that sense of investment in the success of every event. I usually offer suggestions for improvements (part of being a marketing professor), but there is absolutely nothing that could be improved – you have set the bar very high.”

“Everyone loved the hotel and the food. Sam and Dan were very impressed in what a very well oiled machine you run!”

“The hotel staff was beyond exceptional. During the past twenty years I have hosted hundreds of events at dozens of hotels and I can’t recall ever having things run as smoothly as they did for us at the Monteleone. We had very few “last minute changes” but those we had were handled flawlessly. The F&B quality and presentation was outstanding. We had numerous compliments from the attendees. On a personal note, I have stayed at 8 or 9 different hotels in New Orleans and can’t imagine staying anywhere other than the Monteleone from now on.”

– Scott Briggs, Center for Financial Training

“Where do I start, I was so pleased with the meeting location and space and wanted to say thank you. The hospitality in this hotel has been nothing short of “Service Excellence” The rooms are spacious, clean and super comfortable. The banquet staff was extremely attentive to every detail and very professional. Overall the meeting went great and everyone’s palette was satisfied with the AMAZING food. Thanks again for all your help and I am sure our group will be back again.”

“I am so appreciative that there exists a place that still values customer service throughout the hotel. The staff were phenomenal. Lisa (Catering Manager) helped make our conference a huge success. I look forward to next year. We had numerous attendees have cancelled flights and the hotel quickly accommodated them. It is refreshing to see family values still remain at the forefront. It is an example of how business should be done and is a lost art. Keep up the great work. Keep doing this and you’ve made a customer for life.”

– Scott Mastroianni, Casa Pacifica

“The event was a huge success. Please thank all your staff members that helped out during the event, especially Ron who was very accommodating and understanding. Also, please thank the kitchen and service staff for me. The food and service during the luncheon was exceptional, as were the cookies and brownies during the breaks (seriously, people are still talking about the brownies).”

“Food quality and variety truly proved to be a highlight of our conference. Not only was the food good, it was fantastic!!! Many of our guests complimented us on numerous occasions for the quality and variety of food offered. I could not not be happier to have chosen the Hotel Monteleone for this event. Many of the attendees, while frequent New Orleans visitors, indicated they had no idea what a treasure the hotel was and that they would definitely return.”

– Sewart Supply

“Once again you and your staff did an outstanding job for our JMB functions!! You have been a blessing to me and I hope you realize how much I appreciate YOU!!

– Debi Lauret, JMB Partnership, L.L.C.

“One year ago today was the official start of our GSEP meeting in New Orleans. I find myself reminiscing regularly about our experience there, especially at Hotel Monteleone. You and your staff made that meeting the pinnacle of my 25+ year career.”

– Linda Harper, Duke Energy

“The staff members who handle the front office, reservations and parking did a wonderful job for us. We appreciate their professionalism and hard work to provide us with an excellent experience. We were very impressed with the check in staff on Sunday when many board members arrived. The staff were welcoming and courteous, providing a smooth and efficient check in. We love bringing our Annual Meeting to the Hotel Monteleone. The fabulous, 4 star hotel offers a wonderful ambiance, professional staff and a quality experience. We love the meeting space and all amenities. On this visit, it seems that even greater efforts were made to ensure that we enjoyed our stay!”

– Southwest Educational Research Association

“We just had our annual conference at our property over the last few days. In a nutshell, we would rate our experience as an 11 out of 10. The property was beautiful, the service was impeccable and the food and meeting spaces were great. In my 7 years as Executive Director, I have worked with many fine hotels and fine staff and I will always consider my recent experience to be one of , if not the best, I ever had for our group.”

– Joseph E. Ankus, Esq., Ankus Consulting, Inc.

“We received many comments about the hotel being a perfect location for our meeting, everyone was impressed and you will be on the top of our list for our next meeting in New Orleans.”

“Our ten-member executive team off-site meeting was outstanding in every way — from meals in the Criollo Restaurant to late night beverages at the Carousel Bar as well as service in the suite where we held our meetings. The staff provides exceptional hospitality across every position, and the location is adjacent to the French Quarter. I’ve been to New Orleans several times and stayed in many different hotels — this one rates as a truly “First Class” experience!‘”

“I once again had the pleasure of visiting the Hotel Monteleone in New Orleans. My company has at least one board meeting a year here. Everything from the check-in to the meeting rooms were first class. When my luggage arrived to my room, the lady who was accompanying it was actually a hotel manager. The bell staff was attending a meeting and she didn’t want us to wait. That doesn’t happen very often. My advice is when in New Orleans, pay the Hotel Monteleone a visit. Even if it is just to go to the world famous Carousel Bar for Marvin to make you a cocktail.”

– Russell Walters, TripAdvisor User

“It’s a classic, historical hotel. The service at the front door, the front desk, housekeeping, and the conference serving staff was very warm, welcoming, and professional. We were there for a board meeting and a conference (and extended a day) so six nights in all. That is a long time to be in NOLA, but the lovely Hotel Monteleone made us feel very much at home. They have a large bar, which made it convenient for our group to find each other after meetings. Highly recommend.“
