Great area and beautiful room. Our room was right next to the elevator and the walls were paper thin, so that was a little annoying but other than that, it was a lovely stay.

I have been to New Orleans several times. This was my first time staying here. It is truly a gem. From the moment I arrived until the time I left everyone working at the French Market Inn were very friendly, professional and helpful. I stayed in the Queen petite. Loved the room. Faced the river. The bed was super comfy. Lots of hot water and great AC. The courtyard is beautiful and well shaded. Lots of places to sit. The pool is small. The water was perfect in the pool. Very close to shopping, restaurants and tours. It is very clean. Will definitely be back. A wonderful place to stay!

In the heat of NOLA French Market Inn was an oasis. The staff was wonderful and attentive. The property was an amazing location where I could walk to everything I had planned. The only two complaints I have are the rooms were not as clean as I’d like. Some spots on the sheets and the bathroom sink had a hair in it (not mine). I also wish I had a microwave in my room but one was available behind the pool house. I will definitely stay here again. I highly recommend the hotel.
