Jean Lafitte House

female staff member who handled my check-in was great! She made me love this inn so much. The rooms are spacious and well-equipped, and next time I would like to stay here for consecutive nights!

Great

Nice place

Even before we arrived the timeliness on response to my reservation and the willingness of the staff was awesome!!! I booked without really reading everything (which was clearly stated) for our room. I went with my mom for her 70th and my 40th… I booked a room on the 3rd floor which was non issue for me but I bit of a struggle with luggage for her. They took all our bags to the room. Had a lovely bday note with btl of wine waiting for us upon arrival. The location was clutch. Matt and Linzy couldn’t have been any nicer or more helpful. Linzy even went the extra step of marking suggestions and a clear path on a paper map for my mom which she preferred. Everything is in close walking distance to the French quarter, Frenchman st. And a short Uber ride to the other districts. If you have a hard time with stairs spend a lil bit extra to get a ground floor room. Beds are super comfortable, extra sheets, pillows, towels etc are provided. Coffee maker, fridge, cups, plates etc are all provided. We had a lil bit of a hard time figuring out the tv (that’s just us not being very tech savvy) but Linzy can up to our room and set it all up for us within 5 mins. I can’t sign the praise of this place enough. If you have a problem they will solve it…. Most of which had nothing to do with the establishment. The kindness show by all of them will never be forgotten. Anyone writing negative reviews must just be unhappy and negative people in their own life. I would and will stay with them again.

great location with extensive security. Lots of room for the money.

Everything was fine. The desk clerks are very friendly and helpful.

The Jean Lafitte House website is utterly deceptive. We self-checked-in to our ‘loft apar**ent’ just after 5pm on a Friday. No staff on the premises. Our third-floor walkup apar**ent (the biggest one they offer) was dark, dingy, and extremely dirty. The furniture was shabby and there was a cheap rug permanently curled near the kitchen that posed a tripping hazard. Photos on the website for this apar**ent are staged with extra pillows and flash to give it light. The floors were sticky and the rugs not vacuumed. In the main living space, one overhead light was nowhere near enough to read or work. We were put off enough to leave and seek another hotel. Do NOT stay at Lafitte!! It has none of the charm of New Orleans that we were expecting.

We really liked the accommodations. Wasn't sure upon arrival but once inside we loved it. Very quaint New Orleans. Will stay again but will book parking in advance as they only have 5 parking spots but we got lucky and was able to park across the street. Very convenient to walk the French Quarter.
