For some- its the mystery of what lies behind those century-old shutters. For others, its the curiosity to feel what its like to unwind and enjoy the luxuries of a beautifully restored Victorian Mansion. At the Melrose, our attention to detail will make you feel a part of New Orleans. A sophisticated mansion, Melrose has all the amenities of a grand hotel with the intimacy and personal service found in a fine New Orleans home. In the mornings, the smell of freshly brewed hazelnut coffee sifts throughout the mansion leading you to a delicious assortment of complimentary freshly baked pastries, quiche and juice served in your room, our parlor or poolside. Early evenings begin with a complimentary selection of wine, fruit and cheese. White-gloved service in The Parlor offers nightly cocktails and hors d oeuvres. Guests are sure to enjoy our complimentary gourmet breakfasts, heated pool, wine cellar, 24-hour concierge, 350-count sheets, marble baths and Jacuzzis, and guest robes. When not exploring the historic streets of the French Quarter, walk back to the Melrose and splash into our refreshing pool or relax on a lounge chair and gaze at the tropical lushness that surrounds you.
