Hotel Monteleone

Celebrating over 135 years, Hotel Monteleone in New Orleans has been proudly operated by five generations of Monteleones since 1886. The hotel’s famed grandfather clock still chimes in the lobby, surrounded by glittering chandeliers, polished marble floors, and gleaming brass appointments. Some of history’s most renowned authors were frequent visitors here, including Ernest Hemingway, William Faulkner, Eudora Welty, and Truman Capote. The hotel has often appeared as a setting in American fiction, prompting the Friends of Libraries U.S.A. to designate Hotel Monteleone a Literary Landmark. The Hotel Monteleone has marked a new phase with opening of the Iberville Tower after a 2 year renovation. The Iberville Tower, offers a self-contained escape within the Hotel Monteleone, featuring 160 completely-renovated rooms, 48 brand-new luxury suites and the freshly-designed Iberville Ballroom.
