Best for travelers who want a boutique, literary atmosphere and a courtyard-centered hotel near the French Quarter.

Best for guests seeking classic, ornate 4-star downtown accommodations with larger meeting and event space.
When The Eliza Jane wins: choose The Eliza Jane if you want a smaller, design-forward boutique stay (196 rooms), easy walking access to Magazine Street and the French Quarter, an open-air courtyard, and on-site French‑Louisiana dining at Couvant.
When Le Pavillon wins: pick Le Pavillon if you need a more traditionally upscale 4-star hotel with more guestrooms (226), comprehensive meeting/ballroom facilities, and the scale and services often sought by business groups or wedding parties.
Bottom line: both are historic downtown hotels a short walk from central New Orleans sights; pick The Eliza Jane for boutique character and courtyard dining, or Le Pavillon for old‑world formality and more event space.
