It is tastefully furnished, pristine, and has the feel of a luxury hotel. Everything from the impeccable interior design to the beautiful walled-in-courtyard seemed designed for our every comfort and ease. We felt like we truly had found the best of homes in New Orleans when we stayed here during Mardi Gras of 2016. The space is close to the action (near many excellent restaurants, coffee shops and retail spaces in the Bywater itself, and within easy walking distance or a short cab or Uber ride to the French Quarter). But at the end of a long day of exploring and revelry, I cannot express enough how wonderful it was to come home to this clean, well-lit space where we could relax in comfort. As spectacular as the cottage is, it is also spectacularly managed. It was very easy to book, and the owner has provided an incredibly detailed property overview and recommendations about area eateries, bars, and other attractions that is very useful. He had thought of everything we could have needed. We have been to New Orleans many times, and this is our first choice for lodging in the city. It is by far the most beautiful and best-run vacation rental that we have ever used and we plan on returning again and again!

This place is exactly as described - stunning, gorgeous designer renovation! There is also a…read morebeautiful private terrace with a great fountain. I can't imagine finding better accommodations. I'll be back!

My wife and I stayed here recently for my birthday trip to New Orleans. I booked it through Expedia…read morebased on the very good reviews that I had read. It was very conveniently located on Decatur, just off of Canal Street, and we easily walked everywhere! Our room was very comfortable, and we liked the funky decor. The bathroom was a nice size, and although we did not use it, it had a nice sized kitchenette. One small dresser with a couple of drawers in the bedroom, and the only closet was located near the front door with only a couple of hangers... other than that it was comfortable. The only negative thing I can say, is that our bedroom window was situated above the back alley, and every night at 4 AM, the garbage trucks would come pick up and wake us up. Other than that, it was a great place to stay, and the staff was very helpful and friendly. I would stay here again.

This was my first time using my timeshare and staying at this location…read more I am a Bluegreen owner and was excited to see that there were 2 locations available to stay in the French Quarter. The location is perfect! You are 3 blocks from Bourbon St as well as the casinos. You are also about a 10min walk from the Riverwalk and French Market. I stayed in a one bedroom unit which ended up being handicap accessible so it was most likely bigger than most 1 bedrooms. It included a little kitchenette area with microwave, sink and a mini fridge. I learned my fridge was broken on my first night and I was pretty upset since I had expensive leftovers from dinner I couldn't store. They didn't have any staff available to handle it until the next day so I had to store my food in the staff break room. A replacement was brought the following morning. The streets can be a bit noisy but they do provide you with a white noise machine to help drown outside noise. The bedroom windows tend to be drafty because they are not sealed well leading to your own tiny balcony so be prepared in the colder months. I must say I was pretty annoyed by the Bluegreen staff who contacted me on 3 different occasions to try and schedule a presentation when I had continued to decline.

First time in America, we chose New Orleans and Sonder made our trip 10X more relaxing. We had a…read moresuperior one bed apartment and the entire unit was immaculate. The joy we felt as we saw our home for the next 10 days is something that will stay in my memory forever ! Sonder were amazing at helping our every little need. We were away from the noisy nightlife which made resting after a long day a dream. The only downside which is only small was the shower head as I like good water pressure but that wasn't even a problem as it did the job. I would 1000X stay with Sonder again at any location, but whenever I return to Nola 1500 canal street is the place I will be staying. And I took pictures the next day hence the bed being messy. It was made to perfection !

Stayed at Sonder at 1500 Canal from October 20 - 23, 2023. It was a freaking NIGHTMARE! I will say…read morethat the staff who helped us were kind and professional and embarrassed. As they SHOULD have been. Our room was TRASHED as if there had been a rager in there and they couldn't seem to find a room replacement for over an hour. We had to move twice to other rooms. The codes never freaking worked. The furniture wasn't properly assembled so the coffee table would flip up if ANY pressure was put on it and the couch almost collapsed. It was honestly worse than staying at a well known low cost motel with the number six in the title. The worst part... I wrote to corporate and the letters were sent back unopened. Which means nobody actually gives a crapola. Listen, do yourself a favor and spend a little more money so you don't lose HOURS of your short vacation. Two thumbs down.

This house is a hidden gem! The perfect place to stay if you want to feel like a New Orleans Local…read more Situated just two blocks away from the French Quarter and just steps away from the hot jazz clubs in the Faubourg Mariginy, this historic 135 year old home is located in a safe and trendy neighborhood and has all the amenities and rooms you can ask for--free WiFi (so you can browse the net for hotspots to visit in New Orleans), Cable TV (even though all the entertainment can be found right outside your doors), Formal Dining Room (to enjoy those Cajun cooked meals), Massive Modern fully-equipped Kitchen with a dishwasher (to cook all those Cajun meals), large open patio complete with fountain and palm trees for shade (perfect for an outside meal), and much much more! There is also a detached bathroom with a claw foot bathtub and a toilet with an elevated cistern and chain (so-classic!), and well maintained hardwood floors that run throughout the entire house. This place is PERFECT for a fun family vacation. It can accommodate a group of 10 for a fraction of the price than you would pay for a hotel in New Orleans. All the bedrooms and bathrooms come complete with linens and towels. What's also great about this home is that it's located in a central location--just outside of the busy touristy area, yet close enough to walk around to all the sites the French Quarter has to offer. There is also a great Restaurant open 24 hours (5 days a week) right next door, in case you want a late night or early morning meal. You pretty much have everything you need at The Bouligny House. Overall, this is a PERFECT place to call your Home away from Home. I will most certainly be coming back to stay here during my next trip to New Orleans. You should definitely come and stay at this hidden gem for your next trip to New Orleans. Two words to sum it all up--Simply spectacular!

First of all it's beautiful (we had both the big house and the apartment), but the location is incredible. It is 2 blocks off Bourbon but is so quiet you would never know it. About a 10 minute walk to the French Market and 3 blocks to Frenchman Street. There is a nice restaurant 1/2 block away, Horn's, and Port of Call (WOW!) about 3 blocks away if you just want to chill at least one night. We were there for 10 nights and didn't want to leave. We cannot recommend Bouligny House highly enough. If we could give it 10 stars, we would. Before we left, everyone said "We want to return for next St. Patrick's Day". Thank you, Pat, for sharing this wonderful home.

Tennessee Williams once said, "America has only three cities: New York, San Francisco, and New…read moreOrleans. Everywhere else is Cleveland." In a city teeming with vivacious PERSONALITY, it is morally wrong to stay in a soulless hotel, eating a COLD continental breakfast in the morning. If you're going to do New Orleans, do it RIGHT! The New Orleans Jazz Quarters perfectly embodies the eclectic spirit of the energized city while providing the most winning breakfasts you'll find in the south! The Jazz Quarters is in the Tremé neighborhood and across the street from the immense Louis Armstrong Park! If the fountains and tropical gardens of the Jazz Quarters fail to supply enough serenity for you, just walk across the street to the park and Congo Square for some free scenic beauty and history! After our shoe-box sized room on our previous cruise, I thought I'd splurge and get some elbow space this time around. We stayed in the Mayfield Suite. The suite is very spacious and very---purple! It was vital to come back to a chilled room with a powerful air conditioner after a day of walking in the French Quarter! The intricately carved antique furniture helps you feel like you've escaped to a time where we honor artisans. The bed was comfy, the room quiet, and it was delightful hanging our clothes in the antique armoire! The *only* complaint I have is the corner edge of the bed leading into the bathroom. The pointed wooden edge juts out and I whacked my shin bone in the same spot twice during our two night stay. Ah well. The communication was seamless between us and the owners Vincent and Lola beforehand. When we arrived, Vincent spent time with us on the patio for a 'mini vacation meeting' where he provided maps and routes to take and *to avoid,* suggested restaurants, and got to know us----all whilst drinking some wine! A+ customer service! You can't find that anywhere else! But let's talk about the most important part of The Jazz Quarters--BREAKFAST! Our first course for breakfast was orange soaked cous-cous with craisins and vanilla served with yogurt and honey. The idea was strange at first, but I was sold after my first bite! Second course was grits with caribbean pulled pork. I inwardly sighed and said, "Welcome to the land of good food." Breakfast the next morning satiated my sweet tooth by serving bananas foster pancakes. The quality of breakfast here rivals the most expensive brunch restaurant in town. They also had a special Chicory Coffee blend for guests. We loved it so much Lola actually sent us HOME with some ground coffee to remember them by! Have I impressed how amazing the owners Vincent and Lola are yet? We stayed here last April and I am exceedingly proud to say we've booked another stay to come back THIS April as well! Laissez les bons temps rouler!

I also had to wait about 15 minutes before I could drop off my car. Just seemed to me like they were under-staffed. But the staff that was there was very polite and efficient. My car was very clean. And ran well. The strange part is that you have to walk through the hotel, then out double doors then around a corner. Some people will find this very vexing. I personally gameify stuff like this in my head and thought it was eccentric, much like the city I was visiting, so no harm no foul for me.

Budget Car Service -- Absolutely Unacceptable I have never…read moreexperienced service this poor. I arranged Budget in advance, paid top dollar for a one-day rental, and even scheduled my pickup an hour earlier than necessary to make sure I had plenty of time. I returned the car the same day at 5 PM. Instead, I waited over an hour, along with roughly 50 other customers. Every other car agency at the location was getting customers their vehicles on time--Budget was the only one with a massive line and customers sitting there for over an hour. The employees at the counter showed absolutely no urgency or concern. I flew to New Orleans for a business meeting, only to arrive after the meeting had ended. The clients had already left, and I lost the account. This is exactly why we have Uber. I could have simply called an Uber, but I specifically arranged a rental in advance and paid a premium expecting basic professionalism and reliability. Budget completely failed. I will never use them again, and I strongly recommend taking your business elsewhere. I'm a single mom I had to pay for this trip myself. This was the worst experience of my life, and it cost me a lot.

They sent a standard email right after that it declined that I had 24 hours to pay. It was late at night so I was going to deal with it the next day. I emailed them to let them know and told them it was probably because it was 2 charges. They did one and VRBO did one. The VRBO went thru. They got a bit snippy with me and said that is now why it didn't go through. Not sure it matters, it didn't. But, they canceled the reservation and never let me try to pay it. Worked out better because we booked in the same condo thru a different company for several hundred dollars cheaper for the same size unit. To be clear, they canceled everything BEFORE the time they told me to clear the payment. I saw his response. I never said I made payment. I said the VRBO charge went thru. I realized the 2nd part to them didn't go thru. I am saying the originally told me I had 24 hours to pay. It was late, I went to bed. He is saying my ID didn't match. My ID does certainly match.

We could walk to so many restaurants, shops, and things we wanted to do in the French Quarter without constantly needing a car or Uber. The courtyard was one of my favorite parts of the hotel. It's so pretty and peaceful to sit out there after a busy day walking around the city. The pool area was also really nice and made me wish we had packed swimsuits. We did have an issue with the AC when we first checked in. We came back to the room later and realized it still hadn't cooled down. Staff did send someone to look at it, but we sat around waiting for a while before finally being moved to another room. I just feel like that part could've been handled a little quicker. Other than that, we really enjoyed our stay. The room was nice, the location was great, and overall it was a really good experience.
