Fairchild House B & B - Bed & breakfast in New Orleans - 1518 Prytania St #4416, USA

What a lovely place to stay! It took me longer than usual to decide on my accomodation in NOLA. I wanted to be close to the French Quarter as I love to explore cities on foot. There are several hostels and hotels in that area, some of them even for a reasonable price - but they all charged at least an additional $25 for a parking lot/day which I was not willing to pay. So when I found this little B&B and saw that they offer a gated parking lot and are in walking distance to most highlights in town for an acceptable price I took my chances and was not disappointed. I love old buildings with high ceilings, and this B&B is from ca 1841. Bed was comfortable, breakfast was great and there's a nice backyard to hang out. Staff was fantastic and truly, this is one of the few hotels in the US where I wouldn't mind to stay for more then two nights. Trust Google Maps to guide you as there is no fancy sign showing you that you ended up at the right place 😉

I have never stayed at a place with such exceptional service, and such a beautiful building! The beds were amazing, and I slept better than I have in years! So much more great things to say, but still on my trip, so I will update later. Excellent experience and location!

We had a wonderful stay here. It's a very characterful charismatic b&b. Not for everyone l suspect, if your looking for a modern impersonal hotel standard, then this hotel isn't for you, but if you want a taste of real southern colonial style and grace, quirky and historical, friendly and peacefull then you can't beat this hotel. Staff are wonderful, rooms are comfortable and cute. You can almost hear the voices of the past and the history of New Orleans shouting from the walls. Thank you. We will be back. Watch out for the Margaritas at Luckys bar. 😆 They will leave you with no cloths on !!!

Was disappointed with the quality of the room. The maintenance performed was sub par as well as the furnishings. Room was nothing like it looked online. TV was smaller than a computer monitor. No microwave. When I booked a “bed and breakfast”, I expected a comfortable bed and an impressive breakfast; I got neither. The bed was so hard that neither of us got a good nights sleep. And the breakfast during the week is “not hot” meaning cereal, yogurt, fruit, boiled eggs. On the weekend it wasn’t much better. We ate breakfast elsewhere or just skipped it. Nice location and we felt safe the entire time. Nice and quiet. Staff was friendly and attentive. Fenced in parking was nice. Lots of restaurants with in walking distance. Recommend Uber to go east into the city. Lots of questionable characters live under the bridge just east of here. The trolley gets crowded quick; coming back on the trolley you had to get on at the first stop on Canal St.

My kind of place. Old school look while also cozy and simple. Had everything I needed (AC, bathroom, shower, cozy bed, coffee maker, fridge, tv). I never intend to spend all day in my room and sleep and quick stop ins. The grounds themselves are beautiful with character throughout the entire property. Breakfast daily, private parking, patio area and more all within walking distance of literally everything. I went and visited every district in New Orleans from the hotel by just walking. Really enjoyed my stay here. Staff was very friendly, attentive and kind.

Excellent communication and customer service from check-in staff. Days before our arrival I received a text asking about arrival time. I was unsure since we were driving but I knew it would be 9 or later. We ran into a lot of road delays that pushed us to a midnight check in, well past their 10pm closing time. The staff was incredibly understanding and accommodating. .

The staff was very friendly and helpful. However, the bed was very uncomfortable causing us sore backs the next day. The breakfast was very disappointing, bagels, cereal, toast and sour milk with nothing freshly cooked. We will opt for hotels in the future!

It is a super safe, super quaint bed and breakfast one block from a street car stop. Darrell, and Andrea we so kind, friendly, and helpful. It was a wonderful home away from home. You will not regret staying here!
