A wonderful boutique space in an 1850's townhouse nicely located in the Lower Garden District right on famous Magazine Street and close to everything. Comprising the original library and servant's quarters of the main house, lots of historic architectural features including high ceilings, floor to ceiling bedroom windows, exposed brick, old decorative fireplaces, hardwood floors and a private gallery overlooking a courtyard. Just between the bedroom and the living room is a wonderfully tucked away couchette which kids absolutely love.

We are the closest Historic Residential Neighborhood to the French Quarter and Convention Center and a short walk to the Streetcar, the Warehouse District and tons of restaurants and shops.

This was such a great place to stay! Excellent location with many wonderful restaurants and a park within walking distance. The host, Jules, was very responsive and shared lots of great restaurants to check out during our visit. The stairs going up to the unit are very steep, but the unit was lovely and had a nice balcony and bistro set to get a bit of fresh air while sipping your morning coffee!
This was the cutest townhouse!! It was perfect! We were within walking distance of everything. It was so clean and nice. There were plenty of towels and bedding for our stay. We will be booking again!
This is our second stay at this lovely Garden District property. The location is perfect- close to the FQ, Warehouse District, Uptown, University area, and even Metairie. Plenty of parking available. Super cute and comfortable. The 2nd bed area was very charming and cozy. Loved opening the doors to the balcony. I am a NOLA native who has moved away and I absolutely recommend the Magazine Street Retreat.
I loved how old, quaint, and cozy it was. Very fitting. Be prepared for stairs. Beds were pretty good. The AC/fans worked well. Loved the convenience of the plugs for electronics by both beds. We had everything we needed.
We loved our stay! The property was nice and it’s in a great location. Jules is super responsive and sent lots of detailed check in information and things to do during our stay. Would recommend!
Cute one bedroom apartment a little bed nook in addition which I slept in—my kiddo slept in the bedroom. Very clear instructions and communication with management. The Wi-Fi went out because of a big thunderstorm and was replaced with new equipment the very next day. Great back porch with cafe table. Kitchenette is useful but not for cooking a full meal. Amazing location. Good restaurant recommendations. Overall an A plus experience. Would one hundred percent recommend. What a joyful town!!
We stayed on Magazine St for a month long visit to New Orleans. Was a great location to explore the city. Very quiet, comfortable and much to do and see in the neighborhood. Were able to walk or take the city bus to downtown and the French Quarter.
We were in town to attend a conference. The convention center was conveniently located as were several restaurants. The WWII museum was a short walk and a “must see.” We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and stay.
We enjoyed our stay and time in NOLA. The townhouse was just as described and the hosts were very accommodating and helpful with questions about the area. We would definitely recommend or stay at the townhouse again.
Loved staying her, it's your own mini home in NOLA. You feel like you belong here. Everything you could need in a small package. Will come back again. Nice neighborhood too.
Loved this cozy apartment in walking distance to a lot of cute shops and restaurants.
Owners were so gracious and would def stay again.
There are lots of steps, so make sure your party is mobile.
The bedroom is at the entrance of the hallway so you may hear some hall noise and the hall lights do come through, but I just switched them off when we went to sleep.
Overall, a great place.
