Property Description

History
Built in 1831, Madame Isabelle's family moved into the property at the turn of the century, in the 1900's. Her family expanded and decorated the house before Madame Isabelle's father passed it down to her. Madame Isabelle and her husband continued to renovate the house until they left the city in 2002.

The house is tastefully ornamented and furnished, staying faithful to the architectural characteristics typical of old New Orleans houses in the area. As we are proud of every single detail that makes this house special, we encourage you to enjoy every part of it and we welcome you to feel at home during your stay.

Location
Once you venture out of the house, a vibrant neighborhood welcomes you. Delicious restaurants and local bars share the streets with Creole cottages and shotgun houses. Though set in a quiet area, thriving nightlife is easily accessible from Madame Isabelle's House. Frenchmen Street is only five minutes away by foot, Bourbon Street is within ten minutes walking distance, and Canal Street, which connects you to Mid-City and Uptown, twenty minutes away by foot. If you would like to explore more than the downtown area without heading all the way to Canal Street, there is a bus stop conveniently located at the corner of the street that can transport you to any of the city's many renowned tourist destinations.

Parking:
Free street parking is available, and there is usually ample space on the street near the hostel. Additionally, there are paid parking garages in the vicinity. Please assess the parking situation upon check-in.

Rooms and dorms:
Dormitory rooms as well as private rooms are available. There are two and three person private rooms in the house. Almost all of our private rooms are equipped with a cable TV, a refrigerator, and a private bathroom. All beds are equipped with new, 8-inch mattresses and linens; however, you may not want to stay in your room for too long as the hidden courtyard garden awaits you, replete with an outdoor deck and a Jacuzzi hot tub.

This might be the best hostel I’ve been to & I was only there 1 night! Very clean, awesome volunteers, & lovely atmosphere & common spaces. It’s an easy walk to Frenchmen st & the quarter, & you there’s a key to get into the building, so I felt very safe. The night I arrived Kyle made stir fry for everyone, which was a great way to meet everyone. Hayden & Geoffrey were super friendly & helpful, & down to show us their favorite spots. I wish I had been able to stay longer.I’ll definitely be back!

Great Location. Quiet. We got one of the private rooms, 2nd floor, has its own bathroom and fridge. Good stay. Easy to walk to. Staff is amazing and stored our luggage for us early. They also let us borrow umbrellas. I am to say that Kyle is a stunning host and all around swell guy. Overall wonderful stay for the price. I’ll definitely be staying here again in the future.
