The Frenchmen

Visited the Frenchmen Hotel as a solo traveler in Nola. My stay was convenient and cozy. The staff was friendly and helpful in giving recommendations nearby. My only disappointment was that the power went out in the area for half the day, serving as an inconvenience as I was getting ready. Although not the hotel’s fault, there was no comp for the inconvenience.

The Frenchmen is a perfect location to explore the music and vibe of the Quarter without a lot of the traffic. Our room was very tiny, but efficient and the bed was clean and comfortable. It is a good budget hotel with character. There is no breakfast however the lobby coffee pot wasn’t reliable either. Scope out your breakfast options beforehand. “Who Dat?” Cafe is a trek but has great coffee and breakfast.

We booked The Frenchman due to the nostalgic look, we did read some of the reviews and wondered how bad it could be. When we arrived for check-in we had to be let in as the main entrance was locked. When we were offered a complimentary pair of earplugs that should have been our first clue. We checked in and went to find our room. We booked a queen room and that's all it was, a very small room with only a full mattress, not queen. The room was extremely small and the bathroom was smaller. It certainly was not like any of the pictures on the website. We spent the night and pre-booked at another hotel.

The staff was very friendly, the place is darling and it’s close to a lot of restaurants and bars.

We had a very nice stay at the Frenchmen Hotel. The location is right at the end of Frenchmen street which is great if you want easy access to many music venues in the French Quarter. We went out of season so it was relatively quiet but would be very noisy in season.

This is not the first time in this hotel. And we will come back again. The room was very small, but quiet, despite the festive atmosphere of Frenchmen street. The staff was very courteous. The Nola decor is what we were looking for. And I can't thin of a better location in the city: Frenchmen street is where the music lives..

We enjoyed our stay at the Frenchmen! A nice historical place in the French Quarter.

Built in 1860, the hotel is very old and quaint. It was in a great area with everything within very close walking distance. The room was clean and bed very comfortable. You are not staying at a 5 star hotel with all the services but for us, it was great since we were never in our room anyway. If you are bothered by noise, don't get a room on the street. Our room was in the courtyard so the noise was not an issue. I would stay there again.

This hotel is gorgeous. Everything I wanted from a beautiful New Orleans building! I didn't go in but the pool was stunning. Air con and fridge in the room. Corner shops nearby for water etc. The location was perfect. Right next to the french market, street car stop and frenchmen street bazaar and pubs. The noise didn't keep us awake at all and we were directly above reception next to the stairs. The Tiki Tok was great next door too. My one and only issue was that we were there for 5 nights with lots of luggage and there were no drawers or wardrobe for our clothes. We were in america for 17 nights and could have done with somewhere for our things. Instead of the quite usless desk under the TV, a huge set of drawers for storage would have been so much more helpful. Our room was large and could have handled lots more storage options. A full length mirror would have been nice too. Even if it was in the hall! All we had was some hangers on wall hooks. The bathroom was clean and very nice. The decor in the place was fantastic. I would return to this hotel in a heartbeat. Despite the lack of storage, as everything else was great. If you do have large cases, be aware there's no lift. BEAUTIFUL hotel.
