French Quarter Edge Location
Located on Esplanade Avenue in Faubourg Marigny, the hotel is steps from Frenchmen Street's jazz clubs and Cajun bistros. It is a 5-minute walk to the French Quarter, 1 km from Jackson Square and Cafe du Monde, and 0.5 km from the New Orleans Jazz Museum and Historic Voodoo Museum.
Event Services and Amenities
The hotel hosts events for 10-120 guests in the indoor parlor or poolside courtyard. Services include daily housekeeping, in-room safes, complimentary water, and evening snacks. Office hours run from 7 AM to 11 PM. The front parlor accommodates 50 ceremony chairs, while the pool area holds 65 chairs.
“This historic mansion presents a curious proposition. A blend of antique charm and modern updates aims for boutique luxury, yet some reports suggest inconsistency. Location is prime, near both the French Quarter and Esplanade Avenue.”
