Very centrally located on Bourbon St. So, if you're into the nightlife, that's perfect (Frenchmen St is not far if you prefer the vibe there, and sights, landmarks, public transport etc. are just a short walk away, too). Astonishingly quiet for being directly on Bourbon St., even if you have the room towards the street (to be sure, you'll hear a few drunk people outside, but I had no problem sleeping whatsoever). Great place for Poboys (NOLA Poboys) is right on the next block, too :) Beautiful inside yard. Terry was very nice and helpful. All in all a very nice, relaxing, and uncomplicated stay. Will try to stay here again, if I come back to NOLA.

Great location in the middle of Bourbon street, close to everything. Nice, old furniture. Comfortable beds.

Renata Czech Republic

Great location in a quiet section of the French Quarter but very convenient to everything; easy and walkable. We arrived here by a River Boat from Memphis in the morning and Chuck allowed us to check in early. Very kind.

Kenneth United States

NOLA style furniture and style of Bon Maison was amazing, although the room was small we liked it. The location was amazing, I am not a fan of Bourbon street nowdays but the hotel was quiet and comfortable. Plus everything was within walking distance. Stay there and spend your time on Frenchmen street and you will love it

Mliszka Poland

Great location, all amenities good. Host very friendly and helpful.

Tina United Kingdom

Fabulous location- although it is on busy Bourbon Street it is at the quieter end and the rooms are set back across a beautiful courtyard. Walking distance to all the major tourist areas. The place has been decorated in a classic style and is very attractive.

Catherine United Kingdom

Great location. Small and quiet but close to all interesting places. Chuck was fantastic. Great host!

Antje Germany

Great location on Bourbon Street as it was at the quiet more residential end whilst still being less than a two minute walk from the liveliness. We had an extremely friendly welcome from Chuck and overall a wonderful trip to a great city.

Michael United Kingdom

The grounds were beautiful and it was like a secluded home right at the top of Bourbon. I barely heard the ruckus of Bourbon street. It was a pleasant surprise.

Amena Canada

Central location, fantastic owner, everything we needed was there

  • Are any balcony’s private? Can u smoke on balcony?

    Balconies are semi-private meaning it is possible for others to use the balconies as they are connected to main hallways but it is unlikely that anyone would use them. Yes, smoking is permitted outside of the rooms. There are bistro tables and chairs outside of the rooms and in the courtyard.
