Historic apartment in an 1859 Creole townhouse in the heart of the French Quarter. Two private king bedrooms plus a charming loft with a double bed — sleeps up to 8.

Full kitchen, cozy living space, walking distance to Royal Street, Jackson Square, and Bourbon Street. Note: 3rd floor, stairs only (no elevator); loft accessed by ladder.

The space
Stay in the heart of the French Quarter in a spacious two-bedroom apartment where two private king bedrooms, a charming loft, and a private balcony overlooking the streets below come together for an unforgettable group stay.

Set on the third floor of a historic Creole townhouse dating to 1859, Saint Philip 12 combines the character you come to New Orleans for with the space and conveniences that make traveling with family or friends easy.

SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS
The apartment can accommodate up to 8 guests with:

1 king bed in the primary bedroom
1 king bed in the second bedroom
1 double bed in the loft
1 twin daybed with a pull-out twin trundle

PRIMARY BEDROOM
The private primary bedroom features a king bed, Smart TV, sitting area, and French doors that open directly onto the balcony. It's one of the apartment's best features — a wonderful spot for morning coffee, an evening drink, people-watching, or simply taking in the sights and sounds of the French Quarter.

SECOND BEDROOM
The second private bedroom features a king bed and sitting area, giving couples, families, or friends the benefit of two comfortable private bedrooms.

LOFT
Above the main living space is a semi-private loft with a double bed, providing an additional sleeping area for up to two guests. The loft is accessed by a ladder and is best suited for guests who are comfortable and able to climb.

LIVING SPACE
The open living area is where your group will gather after a day exploring the Quarter — a comfortable spot to trade stories from the day over a bottle of wine before heading back out for the evening. A twin daybed with a pull-out twin trundle provides two additional individual sleeping spaces when needed.

KITCHEN
The kitchen is fully equipped for real cooking, with a gas range, full cookware, dishes, and glassware — everything you need to make yourself at home, whether that's a quick morning coffee or a full group dinner.

BALCONY
French doors from the primary bedroom open directly onto the balcony overlooking the French Quarter. Enjoy your morning coffee, unwind with a glass of wine, people-watch, or simply take in the atmosphere of one of New Orleans' most iconic neighborhoods.

GOOD TO KNOW
Saint Philip 12 is located on the third floor and is accessible by stairs only; there is no elevator. The loft sleeping area is accessed by a ladder. Saint Philip is a historic French Quarter property, and part of its charm is its original character and unique layout.

THE LOCATION
You'll be in the heart of the French Quarter, within an easy walk of Royal Street, Bourbon Street, Jackson Square, Café du Monde, the Mississippi River, and Frenchmen Street.

With two king bedrooms, flexible sleeping space for up to 8 guests, and a French Quarter balcony, Saint Philip 12 is an ideal home base for families and groups looking to experience New Orleans together.

Guest access
Guests have full private access to the entire suite, including all bedrooms, living area, kitchen, bathroom, and loft space.

Entry is through a shared historic French Quarter courtyard that leads directly to your private ground-floor entrance.

You may also use the courtyard as part of the common building space, which is shared with other guests.

Self check-in is available via keypad for easy and flexible arrival.

During your stay
We respect your privacy and make check-in seamless with self check-in and keypad access to the building and your suite.

We are available when needed and only a message or phone call away throughout your stay. Most guests enjoy a fully independent, contactless experience, but we are happy to assist if anything comes up.

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.
