After reading the reviews I was apprehensive, but the staff was very pleasant and helpful, the room was nice if a bit shabby, and we loved the courtyard. Also, the location was excellent. Yes, it was a little noisy - but that goes with the location. The only problem I had with the hotel was that they put a pretty... more

Where oh where do I begin to describe the experience I had at this wonderful establishment? Let us start our journey with the reservations... I made 6 room reservations on the website http://www.neworleansfinehotels.com/frenchmarketinn/. In all hotels I have either worked for or stayed at, that would be the end of it right there and on the date of arrival I... more

Do not stay at the Historic French Market Inn! Disappointment, inconvenience, and a possible tetanus shot await you. I am genuinely surprised that this place has retained its license to operate. Things started off well. Check-in was smooth and the staff was very friendly. My room appeared to be fine. It faced Decatur street and it had a nice plasma... more

There was not valet service outside (most hotels have a booth or some indication of where to drop off the car). The Front Desk person was very rude to us because we did not understand her explanation of how there valet service worked. Our car was illegally parked as we waited 15 min. for the one attendant to get our... more

My friend, her 2 daughters and I were in Gulfshores AL. and decided the girls should see New Orleans. It was the weekend of July 4. I called a hotel database and was told most hotels were booked, but this hotel had a few rooms still available. I reserved a room with 2 queen beds since I had read so... more

If you want to have a wonderful trip with an excellent staff then do NOT stay here! The people who work there are so horrible and have absolutely no customer service skills whatsoever. Supposedly they are under "new" management but it seems to me like nothing has changed since the "old" management. I have never encountered such a rude and... more

I'll start by saying that I am usually very laid back and easy going when it comes to traveling and where I stay. In other words, I am not one to complain. I was very optimistic about this hotel and thought it would be a great place for my husband and I to relax for a few nights. Our FIRST... more

I booked a double at the hotel's web site for a Saturday night as a surprise for my son, who is in his teens. The staff was extremely efficient at check-in and our room was very clean. No bugs, no mice, everything we expected. To get to our room, we had to walk through this interesting passageway to the courtyard,... more

After booking this hotel based on good reviews on the booking website, I then learned of TripAdvisor. When I looked up the hotel on this site, suddenly I became terrifed to stay at the French Market Inn. Many of the reviews on this site were not so good - I was so nervous that I almost cancelled my trip! Luckily,... more

We happened to find this place by accident. Just browsing New Orleans websites and found this diamond in the rough. We have come to find out this Inn was originally built in 1722, and to be almost 300 yrs old, and surviving hurricanes; she is in pretty good shape. The French Market Inn is in a great location for browsing... more
