"Great location and great room!"

Reviewed January 31, 2026 NEW

The location was fantastic! Right by the water of the Mississippi River, 5 min walk to Bourbon street, and right next door to a tourism office, souvenir shops, and great restaurants. One thing I really wanted to do was the award winning WW2 museum, and that’s a straight shot walk, about 15-20 min depending on your pace, but it’s a straight line to get there. The hotel is well kept and clean; the mattress was fantastic, it’s probably the best sleep I’ve had for a while! It’s close enough to Bourbon Street to experience all of that, but with enough distance to have a quiet peaceful sleep. The parking is a little confusing, so make sure you understand it before you go if you’re a planner like I am. We booked parking in advance and I was under the impression we’d pull up and a valet would take the car. That’s not the case, we had to drive about 10 blocks away and then a valet took possession of the vehicle. In hindsight I would have not booked parking with my hotel reservation because there was actually a parking lot right across the street. That’s my only slightly negative comment, and it really wasn’t a big deal, just a lesson learned. The courtyard and pool are so quaint and I’d love to go back when it’s warmer weather to fully appreciate the pool. We went in January so I didn’t use it, but we spent time in the courtyard. To summarize, I would definitely do a return visit, and I would definitely recommend to others!

"A must stay in the french quarter"

Reviewed January 28, 2026 NEW

This was a fabulous stay! From the time we checked in until we left. The hotel is beautiful, and everything was clean, from the room, lobby, and outside area. Our flight was canceled and they extended our stay one more night, without any fuss, or problems! Can't say enough about the front desk girls! They were awesome!!!! I loved this place. You won't be disappointed here! Great location also

Reviewed January 20, 2026 NEW

Our family of two adults and two teenagers spent a long weekend at the beautiful French Market Inn. The hotel was clean, comfortable and the room was big enough for the four of us. The location was fabulous snd the staff were so friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay here again when I return to New Orleans.
