About this property

Engine 24 Firehouse Bed & Breakfast

One of New Orleans' most unique vacation lodging properties: the Engine 24 French Quarter Firehouse Bed & Breakfast... one of the few VRBO properties that is licensed by the City of New Orleans for Bed & Breakfasts! (City license 24-XSTR-04116) Stay in an authentic historic firehouse while enjoying the modern amenities of this renovated gem.

We are located in the heart of the Faubourg Marigny, considered by many travel magazines to be one of America's hot neighborhoods. Next door is the French Quarter, one of the most historic and charming areas anywhere. And to the other side is the hip, funky Bywater, a neighborhood which, like the Faubourg Marigny, features great local eateries and cool bars.

Our bed & breakfast is a restored fire station designed to function as a comfortable home away from home for tourists and locals alike to come and enjoy the vibrant culture that is New Orleans. Formerly, this historic building housed Engine 24 of the New Orleans Fire Department! Local architect William Sonner purchased and renovated the Firehouse in the 2000s and it's now one of the city's most popular vacation rentals!

The Firehouse has 7 bedrooms...3 loft bedrooms on the Main Floor, 2 bedrooms in the Penthouse, and 2 bedrooms in the courtyard. Combined, they sleep 14-16 people comfortably and with lots of privacy. The bedrooms provide a place that is a perfect for getaways with friends, family gatherings, etc. Our 7 bedrooms are always rented together so all guests can enjoy the Firehouse.

The Firehouse has two large private living areas and a newly renovated New Orleans courtyard with fountain, outdoor seating and more.
Please note: The Firehouse is a very popular building and usually books weeks or months in advance. We're often in phone or email contact with multiple groups for the same dates. The first party to initiate payment or provide proper credit will enter into a reservation with us!

It was a great place to stay with fun stuff to entertain everyone. We attended for a bachelor party and it was the perfect setup for us. Having multiple kitchens and lots of bathrooms was a great addition. Host communicated great and even helped us check in early so we didn’t have to wait around.

Perfect for my bachelorette party!

We had a pretty large group of 14 and everyone had a comfortable place to sleep and plenty of space to spread out! We loved the courtyard and all of the common spaces. We especially enjoyed the historic charm of the old firehouse and how walkable it was to everything we were doing (and a cheap uber if needed). Great bars and restaurants in the area too! Would highly recommend and hope to be back someday!

Excellent spot for a bachelor party

The firehouse was even better than expected. We were a group of 14 and had plenty of space. Everything was clean and well kept. The location is also perfect. Close to many excellent restaurants and a short walk to bourbon street and Frenchmen street. The firehouse also added a great general vibe to the bachelor party. Finally, Beth was very responsive and helpful. 10/10 would book again. Thank you for letting us stay in this awesome spot!
