Everything was perfect. Beautiful, clean and spacious room with nice unique touches. The property is also nice with a lot of French Quarter charm. Additionally, they provided great service and they even let us check in early. Also, it's the perfect location, close to many attractions. Iwould definitely stay again.

Alicia sp? was great and so was another woman who works the front desk-I didn't catch her name. They both had great attitudes, were great at their job and also helped with directions that I needed.

Super clean (and that goes for the bathroom too!) with super helpful, yet easy going and friendly staff. Plus the location is top tier! The best. Walk literally everywhere, including to the belly of the French Quarter without having to be right up under its chaos your entire stay. And you’ll still be in the action of Decatur which is swimming with great places to eat, drink or just hang. You might even get to catch a wedding party’s second line sashay past the hotel, like we did (: (:

I just completed my fifth stay -- 8 nights this time around -- at the French Market Inn and it was absolutely wonderful, as always. The staff is so kind, and the location is close to Jackson Square, the riverfront, and easy streetcar access. The entire Quarter is easily walkable. The courtyard is a collection of classic 18th century buildings built around an impossibly lush and lovely courtyard complete with fountains and a small sparkling plunge pool. The rooms feature original brick details and maintain their historical feel even as they have been subtly remodeled with all expected modern conveniences. I visit Orleans frequently, and bounced around hotels until I found the French Market Inn. But it's home now! Thank you for having a spectacular stay, FMI!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – Loved my stay! I had the BEST time at the French Market Inn in New Orleans! This place has the perfect mix of charm, comfort, and that classic French Quarter vibe. As soon as I walked in, it felt like I stepped into a cute hidden spot that only locals would know about. The location is 10/10 — right on Decatur Street, literally steps from the French Market, Cafe du Monde, Jackson Square, and all the fun. I walked everywhere and never once needed an Uber. The courtyard is honestly the star. It’s gorgeous, peaceful, full of plants, and has this small pool that’s perfect for a quick cool-off after walking around in the New Orleans heat. I found myself sitting out there way more than I expected. My room was clean, cozy, and had that historic feel without feeling old or outdated. Staff was super friendly, helped with recommendations, and made everything smooth from check-in to check-out. Only heads up: if you get a room facing the street, it can get a little noisy (it is the French Quarter, after all). But honestly, the energy just adds to the New Orleans experience. Overall, I’d 100% stay here again. Great vibe, great location, great people. If you want to be in the middle of the fun but still have a quiet place to chill, this hotel is the move!

The end itself was charming with a beautiful patio. We had breakfast and happy hour there during our stay. The staff was great, accommodating our needs and always very helpful. The rooms were clean and housekeeping was done daily. We were in the middle of French Quarter so it was a convenient hotel to stay at.
