Very cozy, and Josh went the extra mile to provide champagne and a cake for my wife’s birthday!

Vijay United States of America

Joshua was a great host and very responsive and helpful to me when I needed some urgent medical care. Fun coffee shops, book store, and food/wine market are all within 5 minutes walk.

Marsha United States of America

it is a jewel in New Orleans! C and well equipped - surrounded by a lovely garden with several books with comfortable seating outside. This far exceeded my expectations for any property!

Holly United States of America

Great super clean economical and beautiful place to stay at New Orleans . Host Joshua was very welcoming and gave us great recommendations for food and places to visit.

Rashmi United States of America

Bring your comfortable shoes and explore! We only took a Lyft once. Walking through the neighborhoods to the French Market was a pleasure. So many great restaurants and friendly neighbors. The owner Josh took the time to give his suggestions for the day. He provides excellent advice! Just ask, and Josh or Will will be there with an answer. I could have relaxed in the beautiful backyard swing for hours.

Melissa United States of America

Cute little room. Authentic NOLA!!! Close to the Ruby Slipper for yummy breakfast. Very well stocked room. Hosts even accommodated our last minute additional traveler. Wish I could have used the cute courtyard and hot tub but not enough time. We had a great stay!!

Anne United States of America

Good location near the french quarter, with street parking. Nice kitchenette area, and very spacious room. Nice patio and hot tub.

The room and the exterior are well-kept. The location is an easy walk to tourist attractions and across the street from a grocery store.

Joshua, Owner
The Blue60 Guest House is in the center of the Faubourg Marigny district of New Orleans. We are just a few minutes walk to the best New Orleans has too offer, from restaurants, jazz clubs on Frenchman Street, and of course the French Quarter.
Hi, my name is Joshua and I own and operate the Blue60 Guest House. It was built in 1842 and has 5 guest rooms, most of which are suites. I live on site look forward to welcoming you to the Crecent City!
The Faubourg Marigny can be overlooked by those who think of New Orleans only as "The French Quarter". With an identiy all it's own, the Marigny has a charm that is just as strong with independent cafe's, restaurants, artists studios, and live music.
