I'm a local but I always recommend the Hotel Monteleone whenever I have people come visit. It's in the heart of the French Quarter and the Carousel Bar is an absolute must!
Cocktail bar out of a dream!
The carousel bar was the most amazing idea ever. Going there regularly on fat Tuesdays made me feel the soul of NOLA. Will never forget the privilege just to walk through this place of magic. Oh yes Blanche, it exists!
The Grande Dame of the Quarter
Even if you can't stay at this amazingly beautiful hotel, you owe it to yourself to stop in for a drink at the famed Carousel bar, which was a favorite for many beloved writers including Capote and Williams.
one of my favorite gay moments in NOLA
the Monteleone holds a dear place in my fondest gay memories when I was blitzkreiged by a german banker who offered me a great chance and I stupidly failed to take it - oh well!!
No you haven't had too much to drink . . . The bar actually rotates like a merry-go-round.
