The Pontchartrain definitely has its charms, from a lovely and eclectic lobby to the three excellent restaurant options in the hotel, but our time there also had several pitfalls. At check in, we were given a wifi password, but the wifi was open and public - there was no option to use faster locked wifi anywhere or to use the password. This was unfortunately poor internet security. We were given two waters at check in for the whole stay and some drink tickets we were told were complimentary but were actually included in the amenities fee and we didn't use them. There wasn't any mention of the amenities fee that is on the website at check in or check out, so we assumed it was bundled into the price we paid for our rooms...it was not. It's $25 USD/day for the water (2), the wifi (which was open), cleaning, drinks (2) etc. separate from the room fee, which I really wish we had've known in advance instead of receiving an unexpected charge the day after we left. The ceiling in our bathroom also started leaking on the first night and plaster began raining down on the toilet. When we made mention of this, there was no option to move rooms because the hotel was full and the repairs couldn't be completed until we left, so the only thing we were offered was a patch job to prevent further fallout - no compensation. If I had've known about the amenities fee, I would have requested it at least be waived for the day we had to spend outside of our room for that patch job to be completed.

The Pontchartrain Hotel is a step back in time, comfortable, and well located. Reserving a room was easy, check-in not so much. Upon reserving the room I notified the hotel we would be arriving after midnight due to our flight. The staff stated that would be no problem. The morning of the trip I again contacted the hotel to confirm we would be arriving after midnight. When we arrived the person at the desk said they had no rooms and had given ours away because they thought we weren't coming. Luckily, they did have two rooms left, but were marked as unavailable due to not being serviced by housekeeping. The desk person checked them and they were clean and ready, but hadn't been updated in the system. The room was pretty, clean, and met our needs for one night. The bed, while small for the two of us, was comfortable. I appreciate the front desk staff and the manager to find a room and to issue a small refund for the smaller room. I would recommend The Pontchartrain, especially if you are arriving earlier in the day.

I enjoyed the multiple excellent dining options and rooftop bar. This is very convenient for guests. I also enjoyed the location, which is in the scenic and historic Garden District, away from the craziness of the French Quarter. Service was average to good as we had a delayed checkin by about 1.5 hours due to our room not being ready; it seems like they may have staffing issues. However, the staff was helpful and arranged a cab to the airport. The neighborhood does have some homeless individuals that panhandle near the hotel, so be careful when walking around. I would certainly come back and stay here again.

Real real real issues with my booking and checking in. I understand that checking in early is not guaranteed, but we arrived early in the morning, they did hold our luggage for us; however, the front desk agent kept telling us to check back and we could possibly check in early. Came back 4 or 5 times, kept getting told maybe, they would call us. Only to come back at the check in time, right on the money, and they had no room for us yet?!? We waited for an hour and it wasn't until we spoke up did they scramble and find us a room. Super frustrating and almost missed our reservation for a show. This room was booked months in advance also. We saw 4 different couples come in and get their key before us, checking in at the same time.
