Best for boutique character, a courtyard setting, and being steps from the Arts District and Convention Center.

Best for classic French Quarter location, a larger range of room types and on-site pool and spa services.
When The Eliza Jane wins: choose The Eliza Jane if you want a boutique, design-forward stay in transformed 19th‑century warehouse buildings with a quiet interior courtyard, smaller scale, and a strong restaurant/bar program for intimate nights out.
When Hotel Monteleone wins: pick Hotel Monteleone if you want to be deep inside the French Quarter on Royal/Bourbon corridors, need an on-site pool and spa, or prefer a large hotel with many room types and extensive meeting/banquet space.
Bottom line: both are historic, characterful options close to the Quarter; The Eliza Jane leans boutique and courtyard-driven, while Hotel Monteleone is the larger, traditional French Quarter property with more on-site amenities.
