About this property

Uptown Carriage House 900 ft to Magazine & 3 Blocks to Mardi Gras Parade Route

Enjoy our fantastically located, one bedroom, carriage house guest suite adjoining a beautifully restored historic New Orleans shotgun house. Step through the brick patio and lush foliage as you make your way to the suite's private entrance, where the charm of New Orleans hospitality awaits.

Inside, you will find a thoughtfully equipped kitchen with a full-size stove, refrigerator, microwave, toaster, and Keurig. Cabinets and open shelves are well-stocked with abundant tableware, glassware, pots, pans, and cooking utensils--perfect whether you are preparing a delicious meal at home or enjoying takeout from the many nearby restaurants.

Just two stair steps down, the bedroom and bathroom create the perfect retreat. The bedroom features a Sealy® Euro-top mattress dressed in 100% organic cotton sheets, and a down comforter, complemented by Downlite hotel-grade pillows. For added comfort, extra pillows and blankets are stored in the closet within easy reach. A desk, ample closet space with hangers, a dresser, and a 42-inch smart TV complete the room. An ironing board, iron, and steamer are also provided for your convenience.

The bathroom offers a tub and shower combination and a vanity with sink. Abundant 100% plush Egyptian cotton towels (600 GSM), a blow dryer, and luxury toiletries are included, so you can refresh and relax after a day exploring the city.

Free 1000 Mbps+ Wi-Fi runs throughout the suite. Guests also enjoy access to a large downstairs storage space for bikes or luggage. A free washer and dryer are located just down the steps from the guest suite.

There is so much to enjoy in the neighborhood. Start your day on Magazine Street with coffee and pastries at PJ’s Coffee or District Donut and Coffee Bar. After breakfast, stroll Magazine’s shops and browse Joseph Boutique, Azby’s, Pied Nu for clothing, or Jean Therapy for denim. For luxury gifts and home goods, Hazelnut, owned by Bryan Batt of Mad Men fame, is a favorite stop. For lunch, Whole Foods in Arabella Station, a historic former streetcar carbarn, offers prepared foods and outdoor seating.

After lunch, treat yourself to a massage or facial at Earthsavers while you stock up on skincare. Paris Parker Salon & Spa offers hair and beauty services nearby, or you can shop Bluemercury for luxury makeup and cosmetics. Men can step back in time at Bad Habit Barbershop, which offers classic cuts, hot shaves, and beard trims in a stylish setting. If you are in a more literary state of mind, browse Octavia Books, one of New Orleans’ premier independent bookstores.

For dinner, savor Middle Eastern flavors at Saba by James Beard award-winning chef Alon Shaya, enjoy elegant Italian fare at Avo, or choose a romantic French evening at La Crèpe Nanou. Creole Creamery is also close by for dessert, and Paris Parker Salon & Spa offers luxury beauty services.

After dinner, cap the night with cocktails at St. Joe’s Bar or Monkey Hill Bar, both walkable. If you are in the mood for live music, head to Maple Street, Tipitina’s, or Frenchmen Street for dancing. In the morning, recharge with a superfood smoothie from Playa Bowls before setting out again.

Perfectly cozy for an individual or couple

This was a great location and accommodation for our trip to New Orleans. Wifi was sufficient for us to do some work while we were there, amenities were thoughtful and high-quality. The surrounding neighborhood is safe, charming and convenient for eating and shopping very locally, as well as for getting around town. The only thing that we did not love is that the exercise machine in the bedroom is a bit awkward to move around, and if you wear glasses, be aware that only one side of the bed has a surface for placing them overnight. However, we knew about these things at time of booking, and were able to work around them. All in all, we highly recommend staying here, and look forward to returning.

Uptown Stay

Property is in a fantastic location - easy walk to Audubon and Magazine St.. Area is a beautiful, quiet and safe residential neighborhood providing an authentic New Orleans experience. Although the unit is attached to main residence, the set-up allows for maximum privacy. We actually never saw or heard the homeowners.The garden patio is a lovely, quiet space that is well appointed with comfortable seating - very clean - well organized - If weather cooperates a great place for R&R after long walks.The hosts were very attentive to details and communicated via text making sure all questions answered and information shared about the "apartment" amenities.We appreciated the owners hospitality - fresh flowers on the dining table and kitchen well stocked with essential staples, coffee maker, dishes etc.Hosts provided bath soaps and lotions - in case toiletries left at home. Did not use - but nice to know available.We would definitely stay at this quiet, very clean and well organized location again. Highly recommend!Thank you Aladdin and Anne

This home is an oasis in a busy city. It was far enough away from Bourbon street that we enjoyed peaceful evenings, and convieniently located near multiple modes of transportation, including the 12 trolley line that goes to the heart of the French Quarter. It was clean, the hosts were incredibly kind and generous, and was an ideal vacation rental. If i come back to NOLA, I would definitely want to stay here again

From the beginning to end of our stay our experience was great. Finding the property, parking and obtaining the key all went smoothly. We were able to get settled in quickly and relax. The location allowed us to walk to several yummy restaurants and shops (even in the August heat). While there is a Whole Foods very close we enjoyed Langenstein’s Grocery Store a few blocks further that had everything we needed including some fabulous prepared foods. Aladdin was very attentive and prompt in his communications. The property is wonderfully New Orleans, extremely charming. I loved the history of the architecture. We were very comfortable and had everything that we needed. Staying here made dropping our son off for his first year at Loyola so much easier.

I’ve stayed at a dozen VRBO’s & am a landlord on that site also. This host was better than any other. She removed & replaced the outdoor cushions in the beautiful private garden area when it rained. Tried to fix the Firepit on the weekend. My wife’s very picky about products and complimented her stocking the rental with top quality expensive toiletries including new toothbrushes and paste. I noticed the dozen new plush towels Basically you feel like you’re in a hotel, not a VRBO. I’d give her 6 stars if I could!;)

This property is adorable. We loved it all. Kitchen is well equipped and comfortably-sized with a table and three chairs, and every other amenity needed. Coffee pods are provided for the Keurig as well as ample bottles of water, salt and pepper, plates, mugs. Bedroom very comfy; TV was well-loaded with apps; desk handy, and plenty of closet space. Beautiful secluded brick patio with very comfy seating and a fire pit, good lighting. Also, bonus for us as I don't like to take dirty clothes home - there is a washer and dryer. This place is well located - walkable to Whole Foods, a great wine shop, boutiques, hairdressers, nail place...we loved it. The host is also responsive and kind.

Wonderful Respite

Just spent eights days of R&R at this finest-kind sweet suite, most comfortably eclectic. The description provided is quite accurate, and the neighborhood recommendations spot-on. Weather was both hot and cold during my stay; AC & heating worked great as needed. Kitchen fine for cooking when not eating out (I made jambalaya, broiled steaks, & a pork rib roast). I decided not to rent a car, and instead put the money toward food & wine {Correction: WINE & food...} Surrounding area incredibly walkable. Used public streetcar and bus routes to get all around city easily & inexpensively. Rather than cab it, I even used the 202 RTA bus to quickly get to/from MSY to downtown for $1.50. Thanks again to Aladdin & Anne for allowing a wayward New Englander to abandon his wife & cat for a restorative stay.

Private and Convenient Uptown Stay

Hosts were very accommodating, and the upstairs space is bright with shielded (private) windows and great separation between the comfortable bedroom and well supplied kitchen. Very close to restaurants and shopping on Magazine. It was too cold for the patio this visit but the gas and string lighting upon the brickwork set a great mood to relax. Hope to return soon.

Sweetest uptown guest house

So sweet - every Vrbo photo accurate The host was very communicative and available for any needs I am from uptown New Orleans originally so knew what to expect of an old uptown house - this was better than most old homes tho it’s a bit quirky space ( which was perfect for me ) This was wonderful with lots of beautiful touches from the claw foot tub and it’s pretty faucet to all the very nice soaps and shampoos - look at that kitchen ! Felt very spoiled Note : Entrance is in the very back of home -( not pictured ) there are stairs to get up to the apartment .. not too many -they are very sturdy if a bit narrow so only go if a few stairs wont bother you - I’m over 60 and they were fine - would love to return
