FRENCH QUARTER SOUNDS: You’re staying in the heart of the French Quarter. You may hear music, people, celebrations, and other city sounds, particularly on weekends.
THE LOCATION
One of the best parts of staying at Saint Philip is how much of New Orleans you can experience on foot.
Royal Street, Bourbon Street, Jackson Square, Café du Monde, the Mississippi River, and Frenchmen Street are all within easy walking distance.
This is the kind of place you come to New Orleans for—historic, atmospheric, full of character, and high above the Quarter with New Orleans just outside your door.
Guest access
Guests have full private access to the entire apartment, including both bedrooms, loft, living and dining areas, kitchen, and bathroom.
Entry is through Saint Philip’s shared historic French Quarter courtyard. From the courtyard, stairs lead to your private fourth-floor apartment entrance.
Please note that this apartment is located on the fourth floor and there is no elevator. The loft inside the apartment is also accessed by a ladder.
You’re welcome to enjoy the courtyard during your stay. This is a shared common space for all Saint Philip guests.

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.
