The Spotlight on Hotel de la Monnaie

Classic New Orleans Charm Just Steps from the Music

Hotel de la Monnaie is a charming, French Quarter-style hotel in the heart of New Orleans, placing you right in the culture-rich action. Just a few blocks from local music clubs, historic bars, and iconic venues, it blends vintage vibes with modern comfort. With an outdoor pool, lush garden, and free private parking, it's a relaxed, convenient base for your concert-filled getaway.

Why Concert-goers love it

If you're in town for live music, Hotel de la Monnaie puts you close to the city's most legendary venues—without sacrificing peace and quiet. You’re just 2.4 miles from Union Station and within easy reach of the Caesars Superdome and Morial Convention Center. The 24-hour front desk and free WiFi make late-night returns a breeze, while the serene courtyard and outdoor pool offer a calm place to recover the next day.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a central spot with room to relax
  • Solo travelers catching a dream show
  • Couples planning a music-filled weekend
  • Fans needing a quiet post-show space to recharge
  • Budget-conscious travelers looking for great value and free perks like parking

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, each room includes a fridge—perfect for storing late-night leftovers. The hotel’s French Quarter location means you're steps from 24/7 diners, local cafés, and some of the city’s best Creole and Cajun eats. Need to sleep in after the encore? Plenty of nearby spots serve brunch well into the afternoon.

Nightlife Options

With Bourbon Street and Frenchmen Street just minutes away, nightlife is at your fingertips. Enjoy live jazz clubs, craft cocktail bars, and late-night lounges. Want to keep it low-key? The hotel’s garden terrace is a peaceful spot to sip something local and unwind.

What People Say

Guests love the friendly staff, prime location, and historic charm. Many highlight the quiet rooms despite the central setting, and appreciate amenities like the outdoor pool and free parking—a rare find in the French Quarter.

Areas for Improvement

The early 10:00 AM check-out can feel a bit rushed after a late night out, and some rooms could benefit from modern updates. But if you're here for the music, the location more than makes up for it.

The Bottom Line

Hotel de la Monnaie is a laid-back, soulful spot that puts concert-goers in the heart of New Orleans' live music scene—without blowing the budget.

Great location but in desperate...

Liked: The location was excellent with walking distance to all main attractions. Parking was also good, although, spaces could be filled up pretty quickly on a busy wkend.
Disliked: We had to change the room as there was a cockroach in the bathroom. The ‘new’ room was poorly equipped for self-catering apartment. One of the wardrobes was falling apart, dangerous, as the top nearly fell on my head. Didn’t even try to use the hob as it looked unsafe.

I’d stay here again for...

Liked: Very comfortable and safe with great character to boot. Fair price. Feels like it has a lot of history, has older furnishings but it’s not dingy or decrepit. Across the street from Jazz history museum and close to tons of music venues on Decatur and Frenchman. Parking garage underneath(not big enough for everyone if the hotel is full, but I had a spot). Nice communal balcony and shaded pool area(very small pool).
Disliked: My room didn’t have a lot of windows, so just OK for hanging out in.

Perfect Birthday get-away

Liked: My daughter brought me for my 50th birthday and this hotel was perfect.The room was the perfect size for me and her with the little kitchenette and to have an actual bedroom and a sleeper sofa made it so roomy and comfortable,and the price very good.Ms.Susan the host at the front desk was so sweet absolutely amazing she went above and beyond to make this the best stay I have ever had at a hotel.She recommended and helped book the ghost tours and swamp tours for us and gave us great recommendations to restaurants just well beyond her job.I would like to thank her for that.The hotel was the perfect location just a corner walk to Frenchmen Street.I will absolutely be back and I would recommend 10 out of 10 to my friends and family.Thank you Ms Susan and Hotel de la Monnaie.
