Questions
Which hotel in New Orleans is the most haunted?
By the number of independent sources we could check, the Hotel Monteleone: 7 sources tell its ghost stories, most often about Maurice Begere. We count sources, not sightings, so this measures how well documented a story is, not whether it is true.
Can I request a haunted room?
17 room numbers on this page come from a source that ties them to a ghost story: Room 1462 at the Hotel Monteleone, Room 644 at the Bourbon Orleans, Room 930 at the Le Pavillon, Room 221 at the Le Pavillon, Room 208 at the Andrew Jackson Hotel, Room 216 at the Lamothe House Hotel. Ask for the room when you book, then again at check-in. Hotels rarely guarantee a room number.
Are the haunted hotels in New Orleans expensive?
Prices depend on dates more than ghosts: October weekends and Halloween fill first. Pick your dates on the booking page to see live prices for every hotel on this list.
How do you decide a hotel is haunted?
We list a hotel only when at least three independent sources (newspapers, books, TV, ghost tour companies, history sites or the hotel itself) tell a named ghost story about it, and we check each quote on the source page. See how we check.
