"Located in the alluring Lower Garden District, Hotel Saint Vincent has the air of a laid back country club with expansive public spaces, shade-giving palms, and many a porch on which to sip a Mint Julep as the sun dips down in the evening. A couple of bars and two lovely restaurants are great additions to one of the neighborhood’s rare hotel swimming pools. The tastefully tropical decor gives off a retro, Riviera-like ambiance. The elegance of the pool area alone makes this a hotel worth visiting; add to that the originality and visual charisma of the interior design and you’ve got one of the city’s—nay, the region’s most interesting hotels. From traditionally religious fixtures to daringly erotic paintings, there’s an elevated sultriness about the place that just works like a charm." - Paul Oswell
