Sprawling top-floor penthouse in an 1859 four-story French Quarter townhome, fully renovated with modern comfort while preserving its historic character. Two private bedrooms (king + full), a queen loft, and a twin trundle — sleeps a group comfortably. City views from every window, exposed brick and beams, full kitchen with dining for four. Note: 4th floor, no elevator; loft accessed by ladder. Walking distance to Royal Street, Jackson Square, and Bourbon Street.

The space
Stay in the heart of the French Quarter in a sprawling top-floor penthouse apartment, where soaring city views, exposed brick and beams, and a private loft come together atop a historic four-floor townhome built in 1859.

Perched on the top floor with sweeping views from every window, this apartment offers a level of privacy and light that's hard to find in the Quarter — fully renovated to bring in modern comfort while preserving the building's original historic character.

SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS
The apartment can accommodate guests with:

1 king bed (memory foam) in the master bedroom, plus a seating area that folds out into a single bed
1 full-size bed (memory foam) in the second bedroom
1 queen bed (memory foam) in the loft
1 trundle bed with two twins in the living space, plus a cozy seating area that doubles as a sleeping space for two

MASTER BEDROOM
The private master bedroom features a king bed with a memory foam mattress, a Smart TV, and a cozy seating area that folds out into a single bed for added flexibility.

SECOND BEDROOM
The second private bedroom features a full-size bed with a memory foam mattress, a Smart TV, and skylights overlooking the seating area below, filling the room with natural light.

BATHROOM
The freshly renovated bathroom is bright and modern, with a walk-in shower behind a glass door enclosure.

LIVING SPACE
The sprawling living space is the heart of the apartment, with views of the city from every window, original exposed brick and beams, a 55" Smart TV, a trundle bed with two twins, and a cozy seating area that doubles as sleeping space for two — plenty of room for your group to spread out and unwind.

LOFT
The open, comfortable loft features a queen bed with a memory foam mattress, accessed by ladder — a unique and private retreat above the main living space.

KITCHEN
The full kitchen is an open space with a dining area for four, equipped with everything you need whether you're warming up takeout or cooking a five-course meal.

LAGNIAPPE
A little something extra, as we say in New Orleans — this apartment comes stocked with shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and lotion; hotel-grade towels and linens; fast Wi-Fi; coffee and cooking essentials; a hair dryer; iron and board; and dishwashing essentials, silverware, and glassware to make your stay effortless.

The apartment has been fully renovated to provide guests with modern amenities while preserving our building's unique historical charm.

GOOD TO KNOW
This apartment is located on the 4th floor, and the building does not have an elevator. The loft 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 easy walking distance of restaurants, cocktail bars, live music, Jackson Square, Royal Street, and Bourbon Street.

This is the kind of place you come to New Orleans for: historic, atmospheric, and right in the middle of the French Quarter — with a penthouse view to match.

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.

STAIRS
This airbnb is located onthe 4th floor and the building does not have an elevator.
