Delightful!

We had a lovely stay at this historic hotel! Having the name - House of the Rising Sun - added to the mystique. We did not encounter any ghosts (which i am OK with! :-) If we ever return to Nola we will stay here again!

Wonderful hotel! We stayed with two of our adult children and loved it! It falls perfectly between the French Market and Bourbon street. There's so much history there. It's small, since it was built in the 1800's. If you're looking to stay in an authentic New Orleans home, this is it. If you are looking for a modern hotel, this one is not for you. We will definitely be back!

The hotel itself was very nice. Everything was clean and the service was great. I really liked the decor and vibe the old building has. Parking is limited so i had to park on the street, where my tesla recorded a grown man defacating next to my car, but honestly that could have happened anywhere in nola. Other than that 10/10 would stay there again!

Super adorable old building. Rooms are pretty small, but I ended up just getting two (4 people total) and we were incredibly comfortable. I was surprised how quiet the street was, expecting loud drunk Mardi Gras noises street being so close to Bourbon. Great affordable hotel. Will return for sure

Cozy, Relaxed, Welcoming Stay

For myself and my party, we had an excellent stay. The staff was relaxed and extremely helpful when I needed to park my rental car for a day. I appreciated the long standing history and spiritual energy all around the neighborhood. For folks with inquiring curious minds and those who appreciate the past and love a cozy room (#303) and a cute balcony view outside your door, the this hotel is for you!

Life Saver for Super Bowl

We wanted to stay near the French Quarter. Everyone else was close to 2,500 to 5,000 a night. We found this place by accident and it turned out to be 2 blocks from Bourbon and on a quiet street near Jefferson Square. It wasn't new, it wasn't fancy but it was very nice and quiet and comfortable and clean. That's all we want in a hotel room. Clean and safe. Thank You Very Much

Disappointing Experience – False Parking Info & Poor Room Conditions I booked this hotel specifically because they promised parking, and I even called ahead to confirm they had space for my moving trucks. Upon arrival, I found an extremely small parking lot with no available spots—even for small cars. On top of that, the room was disappointing: outdated, dirty, and the bathroom had black mold around the shower. Definitely not what I expected, and I wouldn’t stay here again.

It's very conveniently located, walkable to anything in the French Quarter. But it's very run down, we stayed in the loft, and it's moldy, smelly, the mattresses are very old and squeaky. Carpet is old and warn down. Looks much nicer on pictures than in reality. It needs a major renovation.

The bed has a mattress topper that was AMAZING. So comfortable! Our room was facing the street, you can hear lots, especially someone screaming outside during the night while they were in an argument. Very nice location. Easy walking to all things-Bourbon st, cafe du mond, central grocery etc.
