As a Medium I can tell you that the Bourbon Orleans is quite “active” with those in Spirit. One evening while taking a walk through the streets of the French Quarter my husband and I walked past the Bourbon Orleans. The hotel bellman was standing outside the beautiful hotel and we began to talk. He suggested we go inside the hotel to see the beautiful ballroom. So, my husband and I took him up on the offer. As we walked up the impressive stairway to the second floor landing my husband began to open the first door we saw to the ballroom – it was locked so we walked a few steps down the same hallway to the next door. Now, as a Medium I began to “feel” the presence of those in Spirit. We reached the second door and as my husband began to open it – I bolted out of the hotel so quickly that I don’t recall even going down the stairs. When I returned outside the bellman asked me how I liked the Grand Ballroom. At this time I said to him, “I never went in the room, that place is filled with Spirit activity”. I also told him that I knew nothing about the hotel or it’s history. I then told him I was a Medium. He began to tell me the history of the hotel which confirmed what I felt and saw… So, if you have always wanted to stay in a Grand but haunted Hotel this is the place for you…. sleep well.
