Great stay at Historic Streetcar Inn

Perfectly situated just outside of the French Quarter on the street car line. Comfortable and clean – with the exception of the rock hard pillows. Excellent value!

There wasn’t any staff. Very strange to enter and only see hand written notes taped up. Entry was very difficult. The bathroom was awful, broken toilet seat, broken toilet paper holder and NO toilet paper. And very small toiletries. I don’t recommend and will never go back.

We booked this hotel for 2 nights, before our cruise. It is a lovely Victorian with charm and convenience. Being on St Charles Ave, the streetcar is right in front of the hotel. And right in the middle of the French Quarter and the Garden District of New Orleans. Restaurants, cocktail lounges, and shopping, are all within walking distance as well. Our host Diane was so helpful and knowledgeable about the area. We are looking forward to another stay here, next time we get to New Orleans.

This is our 2nd stay. Stayed a week back in August 2000!! Rooms are clean and well lit. The only downside is that it is an older property, so the walls are thin. Right next door is U Pizza. They have the best burgers!! There’s also a streetcar stop across the street and it’s about a 10 min ride to Canal and Bourbon Sts. Also within walking distance of the former house of Anne Rice, Lafayette Cemetery and the Garden District Bookstore.

First time to New Orleans and this was a nice place to stay. Right outside is the trolly that takes you to the French Quarter - less than 15 min trip and it runs 24 hours. There is street parking down the street and around the corner that is free. Due to our arrival and departure we did not see a single hotel staff but we didn’t need anything so that did not matter. It is very clean and well set up. We would stay here again.

The building is an 1890s house that has been lovingly converted into a guest house and well maintained. Our room was beautiful, and the bathroom was updated and comfortable. The electronic keys worked really well, and the staff was pleasant and helpful.

Definitely close enough to the main attractions, yet far enough away for quietness. The area had some beautiful restaurants and other places to enjoy in the evenings without having to walk back into town. Unfortunately the check in process was not simple. There is a building next door, granted with a different number but has the Historic Hotel sign above it so a little confusing. Our safe did not have batteries and my father’s room did not have a safe at all. The rooms were to be fair very comfortable however internet was an issue in 1 room for the tv and I did call leaving a message without any call back. It did resolve itself after an evening. While these really are minor issues it was a good value and at the end of the day there is so much to see and do that you shouldn’t actually be in the hotel much anyway. I will give the coffee a 8 out of ten and they do have all the small comforts of ice, extra shampoo etc if you need any. If you are staying for more than a few days be prepared that the room is not cleaned every day.
