Creole Gardens is a charming and magical place! We loved the location and the wonderful hospitality. Even in the dead of summer, the window unit a/c kept our room nice and cool. I will choose Creole Gardens any time I return to New Orleans. Also, they are pet friendly! We will definitely return with our furbaby. Thank you Keith and staff for a wonderful visit!

It really is the perfect property for a stay in New Orleans, since the front is an old mansion, and the cottages and back are really fun and low-key and perfectly appointed for the city.

We loved Creole Gardens! We usually stay at St. Christopher's, but they changed their free parking to paid, so I looked around and found this property. I am so glad that I did. We loved the history of the property and found it absolutely beautiful. They have free parking that is lit and covered by cameras. We were a block away from the streetcar and we felt perfectly safe walking around the area to visit the different restaurants and bars. In the morning, the ladies made us hot, YUMMY breakfast. Every employee that we had contact with was friendly and helpful and I feel like we made them our new friends. Also, this is a pet friendly establishment! The pet fee is only $15/day and free for service animals. I can't recommend this place enough. We found our new home in New Orleans!

Fun property with a bunch of hospitable staff. This is a comfortable bed and breakfast in the heart of the garden district of NOLA. There’s plenty of places to sit and relax in the courtyard but also there was live music at the bar in the evening that I stayed. Would definitely stay again.

Let's be clear, this is essentially a bed and breakfast. The location is fantastic, easily accessible to the street car that is minutes from the French quarter. Free parking and breakfast are plus. Very quaint place, though it's old looking and the rooms are quite bare bones with old ac that was crazy loud all night. That said, great price in a great spot, definitely safe, though not sure I would stay again given that I felt a bit uneasy given it's not a proper hotel. It did the job for my two night stay and so can't ding it too much because it advertises itself what it is. Hotel staff were nice and they are very attentive at breakfast. Lots of places to eat nearby, walking distance to WW2 museum.
