My family of 3 stayed at the inn for four days. The pool and landscaping were stunning and the room was comfortable. However, we will never stay at the Lookout Inn again and I'm going to tell you why: 1. On the day we checked in, Chris called me on my phone and told me where to find the key... More

Just returned from staying in "The Elvis Suite" at the Lookout Inn. It was impossible not to smile while in the Elvis room.. the decor is spot on and very funky cool. I enjoyed the room quite a bit.. the bathroom was cool and unique.. loved the tub. The shower head didn't work, but I didn't really care. Never heard... More

I almost don't want to write this review. I want the Lookout to be available every time I come to New Orleans now on! The Lookout Inn is a quaint home divided into several guest suites. There is a large courtyard with a landscaped swimming pool, hot tub, relaxation area and cabana. When we stayed, our group stayed in three... More

I cannot recommend the Lookout Inn enough. As soon as we pulled up to the property, it exceeded our expectations. The house is beautiful and surrounded by lovely, well-kept gardens. When we opened the door to the Mardi Gras suite, we literally gasped at how lovely it was. The bathroom with it's sofa and clawfoot tub was particularly gorgeous. Outside,... More

I had the best time at the Lookout Inn. I can't say enough good things about it. I felt just like I was at home. Chris was so helpful. Our room was awesome, the backyard was relaxing and the coffee machine had so many choices, I had a different flavor every day! It was so close to Bourbon Street. If... More

I want to take this opportunity to Thank John and Lisa for making our stay the most magical and wonderful experience in my life. I have read some of the below reviews which highlight exactly what we felt... More

My husband and I (50's) just returned from the Lookout Inn where we stayed for 6 days. We were there for my daughter's wedding and wanted to stay close by their house in the Bywater neighborhood. We had the Mission suite and it was perfect for us to return to after a busy day with wedding events. The salt water... More

The Lookout is the ultimate cool place we've been to stay in NO. Really nicely decorated, large, quiet, and private.....and reasonable. The pool area is awesome. We felt like we owned the place, and even though three of the four suites were rented, we never saw anyone else. The on-site manager was very helpful and discreet, the whole place extra... More

The hotel is nice and the area is very local and friendly. However if you are looking to have a good time then go somewhere else. Unless your idea of a good time is quiet time in your rooms by 10pm. And the owners/supervisors live on property so you will be sent to your room if you don't go on... More

Disgruntled Bachelor Party #1. YES! if your idea of a good time is breaking and burning things, spilling beer, glass, butts and puke all over the place, then telling the owner to get the "F" out of his own back yard, because they were really into their all-night conversation. this is truly not the place for you! These guys got... More
