Olivier House Hotel

With red hues and rich shrubbery that denotes a different era, Olivier House Hotel started as a private home to one Madame Olivier. The Creole Greek revival style home was built in the year 1839 and the lobby retains much of the original setting. It passed through a few families until 1970, when it was acquired by the Danner family to be run as a boutique hotel, keeping the name of the original owner. It’s a touch pricier than the other hotels on this list but, given its location three blocks away from Jackson Square, it is totally worth it.
