Stay steps from Bourbon Street in a charming third-floor studio inside French Quarter Mansion. This historic retreat features an antique-inspired interior, crystal chandelier, fireplace, full-size bed, bunk bed, daybed with trundle, kitchenette, vintage clawfoot tub, and a shared balcony gallery overlooking the courtyard.

The space
Experience the charm of the French Quarter from this distinctive third-floor studio inside French Quarter Mansion. Built in 1820, the property preserves centuries-old character while placing guests just steps from Bourbon Street, Royal Street, restaurants, galleries, and historic attractions.
This Victorian-inspired studio features high ceilings, a dramatic five-foot crystal chandelier, decorative Queen Victoria-style ceiling tiles, antique furnishings, a fireplace, richly detailed floors, and views over the mansion’s interior courtyard.
SLEEPING AREA
This is a single-room studio with a full-size bed, bunk bed, and daybed with a pull-out trundle. All sleeping arrangements share the same open room without separate bedrooms.
Although the studio offers several sleeping surfaces, it is best suited for up to four guests because of its compact layout and limited luggage storage.
MINI BAR AREA
The mini bar includes a refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker, kitchenware, and basic essentials for drinks, breakfast, snacks, and reheating meals. Please note that there is no full kitchen, stovetop, or oven.
BATHROOM
The bathroom features a vintage clawfoot tub with a shower fixture. The tub has a high step-over and may be difficult for guests with limited mobility. Guests should take care when entering and exiting the tub.
COURTYARD BALCONY
Step outside onto the shared exterior balcony gallery overlooking French Quarter Mansion’s interior courtyard, with partial views beyond the property. It is a peaceful place to enjoy morning coffee or an evening glass of wine.
The balcony gallery is shared with neighboring apartments, so other guests may occasionally pass through or enjoy portions of the outdoor space.
SHARED COURTYARD
Guests also have access to the gated shared courtyard, where the fountain and historic brick architecture create a quiet retreat from the surrounding French Quarter.
LOCATION
French Quarter Mansion is located on Dumaine Street, just steps from Bourbon Street. Royal Street, Jackson Square, Café du Monde, the French Market, restaurants, nightlife, and the Mississippi Riverfront are all within walking distance.
IMPORTANT TO KNOW
This is a compact, open studio rather than a multi-bedroom apartment. All beds are located within the same room, and storage space for luggage is limited.
The apartment is located on the third floor and requires climbing multiple flights of historic stairs. There is no elevator. The climb can be challenging with luggage and is not recommended for guests with limited mobility.
The clawfoot tub requires a high step to enter and does not offer the accessibility of a walk-in shower.
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
You will have your own room with an ensuite bathroom. There is a common area courtyard for all guests to enjoy and relax next to the sounds of the soothing water fountain and fish pond.
Other things to note
EARLY CHECK-IN AND LATE CHECK-OUT
Early check-in or late check-out may be possible at an extra charge, depending on the availability, and can’t be guaranteed.
We do have luggage storage located on the first floor, free of charge for our guests to use.
PARKING
Due to its location in the heart of the city, we do not have onsite parking of our own. There is metered parking with a 2-hour limit between 7 AM and 7 PM, and it's first come first serve. Overnight street parking is free and has no limitations between 7 PM and 7 AM. It's essential to pay attention to street signage to identify the areas where parking is allowed.
There are also 12 parking lots/garages throughout the French Quarter area. Most of the garages and lots are operated by Premium Parking. We recommend you download the Premium Parking app to locate the best parking option for you.
HISTORIC LOCATION
The historic creole mansion known as the French Quarter Mansion was built in 1820 for Christian Rosaleus, the founder of the very prestigious Tulane University School of Law. Today it is one of the most photographed buildings in the French Quarter as it holds the U Need A Biscuit Sign on its side.
We have completely renovated the building and while doing so we preserved as much of its historical value as possible. This makes this building special and we hope you enjoy the work that was completed to preserve the space.
With all the historical buildings in city centers, we want you to be aware of some items that need more tender loving care.
This Airbnb is on the 3rd floor the building does not have an elevator.
Many features of this Airbnb are original such as floors, doors, walls, and windows.
The brick walls have been painted so there is minimal brick dust that will fall but please be aware if the walls are touched there may be some dust.
