About this property
Carnival Royalty at Historic Guest House
Summary: Enjoy easy access to popular shops and restaurants from this charming place, surrounded by three of New Orleans' most famous streets Bourbon St, Royal St, and Esplanade Ave!
The Space: Want to book an adjourning room? Send us a message so your whole group can be together! The Royal Barracks Guest House is a historic and eccentric six-room guesthouse (think B&B without the breakfast!). Rooms are accessed through exterior corridors behind a dedicated, locked gate for maximum safety and privacy.
The guest house features an amazing courtyard dedicated exclusively for our guests, a very popular place to hang out and sip coffee or a cocktail. Be shaded by mature Magnolia trees in our lush courtyard, listen to jazz, and swap stories with other guests.
Royal Barracks Guest House is nestled on a surprisingly quiet, residential street. It is a relaxing oasis in the hustle and bustle of the city. Walk half a block and you are on famous Bourbon Street, or cross Esplanade and explore Frenchman Street and the Marigny.
Guest Access: You will have access to our beautiful and peaceful courtyard and your private room with a dedicated, private bathroom.
The Neighborhood: Crowd-pleasing Bourbon Street features jazz clubs, Cajun eateries and raucous bars serving potent cocktails. Quieter streets lead to the French Market, with gourmet food and local crafts, and to Jackson Square where street performers entertain in front of soaring St. Louis Cathedral.
Getting Around: Shops, venues, 24 hour eateries are all at your fingertips. The street car and public transit (see New Orleans' RTA website for more information) are within blocks. Uber/Lyft are easily accessible, and an affordable and safe way to explore the Crescent City.
For entertainment, guests can enjoy TVs. Other standard amenities include balconies, microwaves, and coffee makers.

Everyone I met while staying in New Orleans was so kind , friendly and extremely helpful. Our room was beautiful and helped add to the old world charm we were looking for. I know when we come back to visit again we would love to stay in the same location/ room.
