Balcony Guest House

Charming New Orleans Stay with a Local Vibe

Modern comfort meets classic charm at Balcony Guest House, a laid-back bed and breakfast located in the Faubourg Marigny district—just a short ride from New Orleans’ top music venues. With a cozy garden, shared lounge, and a friendly neighborhood feel, this guest house is a favorite for travelers looking for an authentic Big Easy experience.

Why Concert-goers love it

Music fans appreciate the quiet residential setting that’s still close to the action. You’re just a quick drive (or ride-share) from the Caesars Superdome and other major venues. After a night out, the peaceful garden and balcony areas offer a great place to unwind. The 3:00 AM checkout is perfect for night owls catching a late set or sleeping in after a festival.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends looking for a social, homestyle vibe
• Solo travelers ticking off a bucket-list concert
• Couples planning a music-filled getaway

• Budget-conscious music lovers who don’t want to compromise on comfort

Food and Drink Options

The on-site family-friendly restaurant serves up comforting meals, and there’s a bar on the property for a nightcap. If you’re up late, nearby eateries in the Marigny and Bywater neighborhoods offer great local bites. While there’s no 24-hour room service, the outdoor dining areas are perfect for snacks and takeout. Breakfast is available, ideal for a slow start after a late night.

Nightlife Options

You’re just blocks from some of New Orleans’ most eclectic bars, live music joints, and late-night lounges. The Marigny is famous for its local jazz clubs and dive bars, so you’ll have no trouble finding post-show fun. Back at the guest house, the bar and lounge area offers a more relaxed way to wind down.

What People Say

Guests love the neighborhood charm, calling it “authentic” and “welcoming.” Many praise the friendly staff, comfortable beds, and easy check-in process. Travelers also appreciate the balconies and garden views for a peaceful start or end to the day.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests noted that the rooms are simple and no-frills, and the location may feel a bit out of the way if you plan to walk everywhere. However, ride-shares are plentiful, and the quiet nights are a big plus after a loud concert.

The Bottom Line

Balcony Guest House is a relaxed, budget-friendly pick with character and comfort—perfect for music fans who want a peaceful place to recharge after the show.
