“An okay place if you don't need anything fancy”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 October 2006

The Elysian Guest House has a beautiful website. Though its photos are accurate, they also do not show how very small the courtyard is or how many locks (on doors and gates) one must continually lock and unlock to get in and out.

However, once I got accustomed to these two rather unexpected things, the Guest House was what I expected.

My husband and I did not mind the extra few blocks to the Quarter, but if you think you might, I would stay in the Quarter itself.

  • Liked — The hot tub
  • Disliked — Locking locks coming and going
  • Tips/Secrets — Make use of the microwave and fridge to save on food costs

My wife and I stayed for three after the Hurricane and found this place to be very quite and comfortable. Nice garden and the Hot Tub was great (after cleanning the city during the day)

“charming”

We stayed here for 5 nights in July. Elysian Guesthouse was quite charming. The location seemed a little out of the way, but in reality was quite convenient. The guesthouse is at the far corner of the Marigny triangle, right across the street from the Phoenix(for all you gay travellers!) and at the edge of all the Frenchman St. action. We were able to walk all over the Quarter from here. The house itself was so cute. 5 suites, each with their own very private entrances, and a hot tub. If there were any other guests we never saw them. We stayed in the Porch Suite. Very nice 2 room suite with a kitchenette and king size bed, sitting area and nice sized bath with great light. Very comfortable for a couple. The feeling we got from staying here was like staying at your best friends awesome apartment in the best city in the world. It's not like staying in a hotel at all. if you like a little more space and a lot of privacy, this is the place for you. It's no Ritz-Carlton, but a good room at a great price. Clean, spacious, and charming. Thanks, TED!!
