About this house rental

Located in New Orleans, this attractive house for $457 per night is a great choice for your next break. This grand home was built in the late 1870's with some of New Orleans' finest in architectural design. Imagine yourself in the late 1800's living in a southern mansion with fine European chandeliers, iron work and floor to ceiling stained glass windows. This home has the finest of furnishings in close proximity to the St. Charles streetcar line that can take you from the Central Business District, French Quarter or to the the Uptown area that includes Audubon Park and Tulane and Loyola Universities. Come enjoy one of the greatest American cities that welcome tourists as if it were your home 'somewhere in time'. Given the architectural beauty of this home, the bedrooms are expansive with large doors and windows and tall ceilings. The king-size bedroom is adjoined with a large bathroom that boasts decorative ceramic tiles from the 1870's. The queen bedroom that hosts an old brick fireplace and shutters is adjoined by a beautiful, large modern bathroom with a whirlpool tub, and an open, walk-in shower. Ceramic tiles adorn the floor and walls. The third bedroom is large enough to accommodate two full-size beds and an armoire with plenty of room to spare. This bedroom in the 1870s was used as a sleeping quarter to catch the cross breezes in the summer time using nine, large windows. Location! Location! Location! This antebellum can be found between two historical and lively streets, Magazine and St. Charles Avenue that has all the charm, shops, eateries that New Orleans can claim. Enjoy the close proximity, the views, the people, and the history that it represents. Both off-street and on-street parking is available. Walk the neighborhoods and you'll find the best restaurants in New Orleans as voted on by the locals. Look for Shaya's (was #1 in the U.S.), La Petit Grocery, Theo's, Sukho Thai, Appoline, La Boulangerie (French Bakery-my favorite), Haiku Sushi, Superior Seafood, Surrey's and so many more. If you're looking for pubs, consider Ms. Mae's. It's been open for generations! Don't forget Tipitina's! Tipitina's is well-known and home to Professor Longhair. Besides good drinks, it has GREAT music!

The upstairs apartment was more than we imagined. It was comfortable, beautifully decorated, and spacious. The rooms were huge! The acoustics were great for recording some great music, especially the bathrooms! The neighborhood was walkable and had some great restaurants. It was really nice.

I have been coming to New Orleans JazzFest for 25 years and this was my absolute favorite home that we stayed in. The home was charming and you felt as if you were back in the 1800's with columns and beautiful porch and balconies on the upper floor. The inside was very spacious which made it perfect for our group of 6 but certainly could have had another 4 people comfortably. The interior was restored beautifully with large bedrooms and bathrooms. The kitchen was updated and there was plenty of room in the dining area for a large group. There was also a nice family room in the front of the house. We also took advantage of the wonderful balcony to sit and sip coffee in the morning while watching people walking their dogs and kids on the sidewalk. I would highly recommend staying here! Beautiful neighborhood that felt safe to walk around to the restaurants and bars in the area. The hosts were very responsive and made for a wonderful trip this year! Thank you!

As this was our first VRBO rental, we didn't really know what to expect. The property location was close to the streetcar line and was spacious, with kitchen, beds and baths as described. However, there were shortcomings. 7 bath towels for 5 women for 4 nights was inadequate. No towel bars to hang up wet towels either. The walk-in shower's rain showerhead leaked horribly. More importantly, the rental was located on the top floor of the property-not the main level! Stairs to the front door, then plenty more stairs spiraling up to the living area. First floor renters knocking on the patio window while we were enjoying some fresh air was neither wanted nor desired either. Unfortunately, the owner requested windows and doors stay closed, so no available fresh air. Overall a good experience, but some improvements are needed.

We stayed at the Napoleon House for a long weekend while attending wedding events nearby. It is a lovely old home. It was very clean and in a terrific location near several excellent restaurants. We were delighted to be able to park within a fenced, gated yard off street. The host was responsive and helpful. My only suggestion might be the addition of some armoirs, as is typical with houses of that era, the bedrooms do not have closets, although there is a very large closet in the bathroom. Thank you for having us! We enjoyed our stay.
