The historic property provides guests the opportunity to get into a building constructed in that french quarter style- long exterior porches with little porch/courtyard areas for each room. Absolutely charming and appointed in a higher end, classic southern design. Colors, art, linens (heavenly!) and drapes are authentic to the quarter but not over the top and exhausting. Last thing- the beds and linens sleep VERY WELL. Heavy weight cotton, excellent daily service. Perfect.

We purposely scheduled our visit well after the Mardi Gras parades, not particularly liking crowds. We arrived to find the entire area teaming with life and crowds. It seems that some of the Mardi Gras parades and festivities were postponed until St. Patrick’s Day, due to severe weather in February. But the room we had booked at the Bienville House had a wonderful balcony overlooking Decatur Street, which turned out to be the parade route on March 17th. We had the best seats ever for a crazy parade!

This was my husband and I’s first time visiting NOLA and I researched places to stay extensively before choosing Bienville House. I was a little worried after booking because there were many not so great reviews popping up, but there was no other place around in our budget that would meet our needs, so I just kept the booking hoping for the best. It ended up being a decent stay and we did not encounter many of the negatives mentioned in reviews, but there are definitely some areas that could be improved upon. Pros * Quick check in an hour early with no fee. Staff were friendly enough. * Clean room with old charm and updated bathroom. * Comfortable bed * Mini fridge in room was a plus since I could not find it listed on any of the included room amenities and I like to have one. * Walking distance to anywhere in the French quarter, but far enough away from the craziness of Bourbon St. * Hot water takes a bit to heat up, but it does get hot and it was still hot after a long shower. Cons * You hear every little noise and most people aren’t considerate of that fact. We did not have any major issues during our stay, but if you get noisy neighbors, then it’s going to be bad. * Pool was dirty and looked unusable. I have seen many bad reviews about the pool, so you would think they would make it a priority to resolve any issues with it. * you can’t adjust the temperature in the room. * No information about anything was given at check in. I would have liked to hear about th
