I can't say how much I enjoyed this property from pulling up and being greeted by the valet. Moe the valet was very inviting and welcoming to the property and was all hands in helping with my baggage as I had my dog with me as well. Dogs stay free with no charges, the bar dining area had live jazz and they have many specials during the week. You can't go wrong on staying here at Hotel Fontenot.

The Peacock Lounge is sophisticated and so beautifully designed. We had a great dinner at the in-hotel restaurant, King. Staff was very professional and polite. Rooms are spacious and housekeeping cones daily. My only “complaint” is that the water supply in our room didn’t get very hot, so showers were lukewarm.
