Very quiet, clean, and cozy! A classically vintage New Orleans B&B with a great breakfast spread. The staff were friendly and more than welcoming-we'll definitely return!

We had the best breakfast of our tour in USA. A lot of things, good bread and NO plastic. The hotel is already old. Our room was small and smelled a little bit as old houses do.

Every time we stay here it is absolutely the best. I truly don’t think my partner and I will be staying any other place in NOLA. But with that being said, don’t you dare ruin this place other guests!!! The owner, Beatriz( Beatrice?) is such a kind and caring person. You can tell that her and her staff really care about the guests and their stay, I don’t think in the multiple stays we’ve had we’ve encountered any bad times regarding anything really. It feels like staying at an Out-of-Town Aunts House, so if you don’t like that feel, stay on Canal St. It’s so cozy in all the best ways, if you can’t appreciate feeling like one of the family, boo you, we don’t want you either! All in all 5 out of 5 stars, can’t wait to go back!!!!

The B & B is perfectly located within walking to the WWII museum and downtown. A bit further, but still within walking is the French Quarter. quiet street with cute back yard garden. staff are very helpful and attentive and serve a lovely expanded continental breakfast- even cooking hot foods!

The place was a beautiful older group of buildings. It had charm and class. The area is quiet and safe. The staff were friendly and welcoming. The tram was just around the corner so you it was an easy ride to the French Quarter. The staff answered any questions I had and gave me a city map. Breakfast was served at a good time, not too early not too late and even made crepes one morning but had a good selection for cereal lovers or those who wanted healthy like boiled eggs and yogurt. I would stay again!

Beautiful rooms with a view
Room with a view & large comfortable bed. A particularly cold weekend in January, but staff had heat already warming room. Personnel made accommodations for our breakfast the next morning as we had a tour planned early. Breakfasts were wonderful with plenty of choices that included a veggie & egg casserole…wonderful all around. Parking on the street was very good, but knew there was gated/ enclosed area too. Thank you for everything!

It was fine for what it was. Not a great hotel. Towels were old, towel racks ripped out of the walls, chipping paint, etc.. If you know that going in-pretty cool stay, just a lot more run down than advertised.

Great historic Inn. Built in 1841 so older buildings but decorated well with beautiful, authentic historical pictures and decor. Manager very helpful and friendly.

A Part of NoLa
Really enjoyed my stay at the Fairchild House. The history of the area makes you feel a real part of the old skool NoLa. Short 20-30 min walk to bourbon street or Mardi Gras World. Close enough to walk to everything and far enough to not hear all the noise, très bien.

We enjoyed our stay! The location was excellent, as were the staff and breakfast! We were a little disappointed that the room was not nearly as nice as the pictures. The curtains were stained and askew. The walls were heavily scuffed. The worst for us was the shower curtain hanging such that it clung to us in the shower. How many people has it clung to? Gross.
