Historic Mardi Gras Inn

What an amazingly be6and weird place to stay. It was built in the late 1800s and you can feel that. It takes you away from the fast pace of bourbon street and the constant traffic allowing you to reset before going back out. The courtyard is extremely unique and beautiful.

It's a cheap/great location hotel. Blocks from the French quarter and walkable.

Been staying here for the last 20 years.Wouldnt stay anywhere else in New Orleans.

Teisha is the one!☝️ Rm 201 😉

During check-in, I had tk sign a T&C agreeing not to smoke in thr bedroom. When I entered the bedroom, the smell of cigars smoke was completely impregnated in the room, even after leaving door open and fan on. For the 4 nights I stayed there, the smell just wouldn't leave. There was litter just outside the door like someone had swept it, but not threw it away. Waited for the next days, and nobody threw it. There was rice noodles stuck to the wall behind the bed, and the sheets and overall bed linens had suspicious stains (food or body fluids). Microwave was placed on top of a chair, and internal plate was too big and didn't rotate. Fire alarm was clearly taken off, not sure that is legal in NOLA. Paid a very high price, given it was French Quarters festival, but value for money was simply not worth it. Weslley from the reception was very nice and helped us with getting a taxi to airport upon early check out, but that might have been the only good thing about the stay.
