The space
Experience the historic character of the French Quarter from this elegant second-floor apartment inside French Quarter Mansion. Built in 1820, the mansion has been thoughtfully transformed into a collection of distinctive apartments while preserving its original architecture and timeless New Orleans atmosphere.
This charming, open studio-style apartment features an antique metal ceiling, a dramatic five-foot chandelier, original exposed brick, hardwood floors, and carefully selected furnishings. Although located just steps from Bourbon Street, its courtyard-facing position offers a more peaceful retreat from the surrounding activity.
SLEEPING AREA
The open sleeping area includes a comfortable queen bed and a bunk bed with premium linens. A twin sleeper chair provides an additional sleeping option. The apartment is designed for up to four guests but can accommodate a fifth guest using the sleeper chair.
Please note that the sleeping arrangements are all within one open room rather than separate bedrooms.
LIVING AREA
The intimate living area combines historic architectural details with comfortable furnishings, creating a cozy place to relax after exploring the French Quarter.
KITCHENETTE
The kitchenette includes a refrigerator, microwave, sink, coffee maker, vintage mirrored backsplash, and basic kitchenware for drinks, breakfast, snacks, leftovers, and simple microwave meals. Please note that there is no stovetop or oven.
BATHROOM
The distinctive bathroom features marble and exposed brick walls, a Restoration Hardware marble vanity, and a hand-painted Moroccan tile floor.
COURTYARD VIEW
The apartment faces French Quarter Mansion’s interior courtyard, where the soothing fountain and historic architecture create a peaceful atmosphere. The exterior balcony gallery and courtyard are shared with other guests.
LOCATION
French Quarter Mansion is located on Dumaine Street, just steps from Bourbon Street and next door to the Historic Voodoo Museum. Royal Street, Jackson Square, Café du Monde, the French Market, restaurants, galleries, and live music are all within walking distance.
IMPORTANT TO KNOW
This is an open studio-style apartment rather than a traditional multi-bedroom condo. The queen bed, bunk bed, and sleeper chair are all located within the same room.
The apartment is located on the second floor and is accessible only by stairs. There is no elevator, so it may not be suitable for guests with limited mobility or difficulty carrying luggage.
Parking is not provided onsite and can be limited in the French Quarter. Guests arriving by car should reserve nearby paid parking in advance.
Guest access
Guests have private access to the entire apartment and shared access to French Quarter Mansion’s courtyard, exterior balcony gallery, and common entrance areas. The apartment is located on the second floor and requires climbing stairs; there is no elevator. Secure self-check-in instructions and access codes will be provided before arrival.
Other things to note
EARLY CHECK-IN / LATE CHECK-OUT
We completely understand travel schedules can vary, and when we’re able to, we’re happy to accommodate early check-in or late check-out. These are only possible when our cleaning and preparation schedule allows and cannot be guaranteed or planned in advance.
Because each stay is carefully scheduled, we’re not able to confirm these requests ahead of time, but if availability opens up closer to your arrival or departure, we’ll always reach out and let you know.
PARKING (FRENCH QUARTER)
You’re staying in the heart of the French Quarter—one of the most walkable and vibrant areas in New Orleans—so most guests find a car is not necessary during their stay.
We do not offer onsite parking. Street parking is available nearby, but it is limited, metered during the day (7 AM–7 PM) with 2-hour limits, and free overnight where permitted (7 PM–7 AM). As always in the French Quarter, please carefully follow posted signage.
There are also several nearby paid parking garages throughout the area, including Premium Parking and other private parking operators. These are independent third-party companies not affiliated with the property and operate at their own set rates and availability. Guests often find the Premium Parking app helpful for locating and reserving parking in advance.
When available, there is also a loading zone directly in front of the property that may allow for quick drop-off, pickup, or luggage loading. This is not guaranteed and is subject to city enforcement and availability.
HISTORIC FRENCH QUARTER BUILDING
You’ll be staying in a beautifully preserved early-1800s French Quarter building filled with the charm and character that make New Orleans so unique.
The home has been thoughtfully updated for modern comfort while maintaining many original architectural features, including doors, walls, and windows. These details reflect the authentic history of the building and the city itself.
Please note the property does not have an elevator, and access is via stairs.
As with many historic homes in New Orleans, you may notice natural aging or small imperfections throughout the space, these are part of its original character and not defects, but part of its story.
