The Hotel Royal is an historic French Quarter boutique hotel housed in a restored 19th-century townhouse. Its 42 rooms range in size (aptly-named Petite Rooms and Deluxe Rooms feel exceptionally small) and have been restored in a simple, modern style that complements the historic architecture and accents like wrought-iron balconies and louvered windows. While the three pearl hotel is not luxurious, rates include free continental breakfast, Wi-Fi, and coffee throughout the day. Its location a block from Bourbon Street makes it convenient for tourists, and the charming atmosphere attracts couples in particular.
