Olde Town Inn

Olde Town Inn is a welcoming independent guesthouse nestled in the Faubourg Marigny neighborhood, one of New Orleans’ most vibrant and authentic residential districts. Located just steps from the famous Frenchmen Street music strip — home to legendary jazz and blues clubs like The Spotted Cat, Snug Harbor, and dba — the inn offers travelers a genuine neighborhood experience far from the tourist-heavy intensity of Bourbon Street. The property is housed in a historic building that reflects the Creole cottage architecture characteristic of the Marigny. Rooms are clean, comfortable, and individually furnished, each offering free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and private or shared bathrooms. Rates are consistently among the most competitive in central New Orleans, making the inn particularly popular with musicians, artists, and independent travelers who prioritize authentic local experience over luxury amenities. The French Quarter is a short walk away, and the Bywater neighborhood — rapidly emerging as one of New Orleans’ most interesting areas for independent restaurants and galleries — is immediately adjacent. The inn’s friendly management team is known for local tips and personalized recommendations that help guests discover the city beyond its most photographed landmarks.
