This is a pleasant and unique guest house. Quiet, yet situated a short walk from both Bourbon and Frenchman Streets, and the river. Enjoyed the courtyard and the neighborhood.

Fantastic area, close walking distance to all of the main attractions. Great atmosphere, and the space was so authentic and cozy. Really gave you the New Orleans vibe, would definitely stay here again! 10/10

Ms. Catherine is amazing, the rooms are adorable and she has added her special touch to each one. This is not like staying at a boring old high class Hilton, this is a place where you can sit on the stoop with the owners of the property and have a coffee. Had the absolute best time - every need was met by this place! Going again soon!

We stayed in the suite - it was fabulous. Kelly greeted us and was wonderful. We highly recommend staying.

This hotel was very unique and had a lot of character. It was clean and was in a great location!

Great location. Within walking distance of great entertainment and restaurants Kelly was a good hostess

The bed had some dirt streaks across the pillow, and flakes of something on the sheets. There were clumps of dust and dirt around the edge of the floor by the bed. The shower is very small, but is probably understandable for their situation. The front door lock was a keypad, no deadbolt. Very flimsy. The location was good.

Our stay in the Garden room was great! The location of the garden house is so close to everything in the French quarter. We were able to walk everywhere we needed. Super convenient. There is a refrigerator and small microwave right outside our room. Great staff. I would definitely stay again!

It was great. Cozy abd near burbone and frenchman street

Everything was really good except the shower and toilet were very small spaces.

Great location! Great walkability. Awesome innkeeper. Thanks.

This was a very nice place to stay away from the crowds and in old Quarter charm. It is not the Omni or the Roosevelt but is exactly what you expect it to be.

Had a wonderful weekend at RBGH. It was our first time staying at RBGH, but we will DEFINITELY come back. Kelly was wonderful showing us around the property, lovely little garden area to relax in, with ice, mini fridge, stereo for music with a large selection of CDs available for listening. The room had it's own entrance (no need to walk through a lobby) a mini fridge, a microwave, and coffee maker. So we were able to go to our favorite po-boy spot and bring home leftovers for the next day that we could keep in the fridge and heat up. The RBGH offered suggestions for food and activities in the area, and Kelly recommended the Satchmo Festival taking place down the street. Even with the rain/flooding during the weekend, it was still a great weekend. We plan on coming back next year and staying at RBGH again. Pictures on their website are accurate!

The room was cozy, clean, and comfortable. It felt very homey and the owner/manager was sweet and very accommodating. The guesthouse is called conveniently located in/near the French quarter. Just a short walking distance. I plan to stay here on future trips!

So cute and definitely added to the NOLA experience. Good location for a quick walk to wherever you may want to go.
