I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking to experience the true essence of New Orleans. The location is unbeatable—it’s right in the heart of the French Quarter, just steps away from Jackson Square, Café du Monde, and Bourbon Street. The proximity to all the major attractions made it so convenient to explore New Orleans. The historic charm of the property is what really sets it apart. We enjoyed relaxing in the courtyard and the room was cozy. The staff were friendly, helpful, and full of local tips to enhance our trip. Highly recommend this hotel !

Classic French Quarter hotel. Exactly what I was looking for. But, because it was older, I was pleasantly surprised that it was so clean and comfortable. The staff was beyond friendly.

This beautiful hotel exceeded our expectations! We wanted something in the French Quarter and decided to go with the French Market Inn. I’m so glad we do! The property is stunning. The staff so friendly and the rooms and grounds were impeccable. The location is near tons of restaurants and shopping. You can walk easily to Jackson Square, Cafe Du Monde and so much more, We cannot wait to return in the spring or summer!

I returned for a second stay while in New Orleans for a work conference. It was just as great as I’d remembered. Newly remodeled rooms, staff is friendly and knowledgeable, location is walkable to many attractions and restaurants, and quiet(my interior room faced courtyard). Common areas are well landscaped, tidy, and provide a great space for sitting outside. My room was safe, clean and well tended to, had comfortable beds, and renovations and design choices were polished and well suited the building’s architecture and time period. I will always choose French Market Inn when in the city. Special thank you to the staff, as a great stay is more than a room, but the environment created and conveyed by the people who work there. Without exception, everyone is kind, efficient and effective at their job, and shares advice about transportation, dining, and sightseeing. Be sure to check out coffee shop next door, for tasty coffee.
