It was a really clean, well located accomodation with extra-friendly staff. Breakfast is included and weekly there are more evening programs (including food) which can come in handy if you seek company. The whole atmosphere is friendly and great, as if being home. I highly recommend!

I was fulfilled:)

The staff and location are what makes this place outstanding! We interacted with Hayden, James, Austin, Lex, Will and the owner Sean. Very welcoming, friendly, and helpful people. Quiet residential street, 10 min away from the French Quarter and Frenchmen Street. The beds are comfortable, and the amenities are nice for the short stay. Another plus are the weekly events organized by the team. Definitely a good hostel experience and great value!

Nothing negative to say about the hostel. A note for people to request preferences ahead of time when available (lower bunk bed if you have to go to the bathroom at night, privacy curtains if needed).

This is in a nice quite spot only moments away from the French Quarter. The free breakfast is wonderful and has some for everyone, I am vegan so had peanut butter and jam bagels every morning with coffee! They also provide free food throughout the week, make sure you're there on a Wednesday for the jambalaya! Even if you aren't definitely take a picture of the recipe on the side of the fridge. The mixed shared room was clean and comfortable. Although there is one toilet and shower shared between (10?) people from two rooms, I never had to wait long or at all to use it. The staff and other travellers were all so incredibly friendly. This place is perfect.

Getting my hostel rental bike stolen. Not an issue with the hostel, but do be weary while you are out an about in New Orleans. GET INSURANCE!

This is a hostel but they also have private hotelrooms, where we stayed. The atmosphere was extremely welcoming, the staff made breakfast every morning to guests and you can use the garden as you like. We are so glad that we found this place for our first visit I New Orleans, the hotel did the experience more special.

If you are looking for quiet and calm stay, this might not be your hotel, but that’s not even a bad thing (not that we were disturbed by anything and we are a couple in our 50:s)

They have all amenities that you might want and each room has a private bathroom. The room I stayed in has 8 beds which I don’t typically love but in this case it didn’t bother me at all. The thing I loved the most was how it seemed like the house is designed to encourage connecting with your fellow hostel goers. They have a lovely back deck to hang out on and a nice backyard with a hot tub just below it, as well as a cozy dining room which guests can use. They host fun events every day which is a really great touch. The volunteers are all accommodating and nice and so were all the guests while I was there. I would absolutely stay again

It’s a little bit far from most main attractions since it’s just outside the French quarter but everything is accessible within a 25 minute walk or so.

Great location, walking distance from the majority of the "must see" spots. You can rent a bike from them and basically see all of the coolest spots New Orleans has to offer. Was only there a few days and was able to cross everything off my list because of its great location. The staff were incredible and extremely accommodating. The food, especially the Jambalaya, that was available to guest - holy smokes! It was one of my favourite meals from the trip and I'd say better than the one I ate on bourbon street! Really well run establishment with a good mix of friendly and professional. The staff and management set the tone of your stay and made it extremely comfortable... as a first time solo female traveller. I couldn't have been happier with my choice to stay there and I'd stay there again; no doubt!

Nothing to complain about very centralized within close proximity to corner stores...if you need to grab anything in a hurry.

- The staff is the highlight of this place! They were incredibly kind, friendly, fun and welcoming. Thank you Leah, Freddie, Winston, and Stacy! - The location was fantastic— It's perfectly situated between the French Quarter and Frenchmen Street—close enough to enjoy the lively atmosphere but just far enough to escape the chaos when you need some peace. I felt safe and comfortable walking to the French Quarter even at night, which was a huge plus. - The breakfast and coffee were delightful, and enjoying them in the beautiful backyard made for the perfect start to my day! - The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. - The atmosphere was great— The staff put in a lot of effort to foster guest interaction through events, I met a lot of interesting and friendly people during my stay. (Shoutout to Desiree!)

- The top bunk bed didn’t have a barrier, so things kept falling down from it. This could be improved for safety and convenience. - Some of the guests in my room weren’t respectful of others. Three French-speaking girls were very loud, and one even had a FaceTime call in bed at 7:00 a.m., which was frustrating. Of course, this isn’t the hostel’s fault, but it’s worth mentioning, hope they see this and be more careful next time! - A note about mosquitos—the city has a lot of them! If you’re allergic like me, make sure to bring bug spray or take precautions.

I have travelled a good bit and wasn't sure whether America could do the proper hostel experience but Madame Isabelle's proved to me the American's do a purty darn good job. From check in Kyle was a hoot as well as the rest of staff working there and there were plenty of events laid on, some booze filled and some grub filled, both very much appreciated. The vibe was excellent and perfect to get people mingling and singing along to songs played on the guitar. The hostel is only a short walk from the French Quarter and it even has a hot tub! If you want to have a good time and meet some cool people I highly recommend 👌

There wasn't enough Kyle

Location is top, next to the French Quarter. Room is beautiful, only girls. They cooked diner often, free of charge. The garden is like from fairy tail :) Beautiful kitchen ... Very helpful and generous stuff, there is fantastic energy :) You can meet cool people there also ... Madame Isabelle's House is truly one of a kind! Feeling so peacefully and grateful there! The best accommodation in the world, nothing compares to it :))

I have spent one of the best times of my life at Madame Isabelle's House, People are easy-going, always ready to give you tips about what to do, have a chat in the cosy backyard and mezzanine, the pub and dance crawls, Wednesday Jambalaya and the events that are regularly organised now and then. This was definitely a human Journey for me, I love this place, and...Kyle, Lorenzzo, Désirée, Reina, Emiliano, Sean, Benjamin are the best! Going to Madame Isabelle's House just feels like home. I will cherish my memories from New Orleans and will come back to this place when I come back to the Big Easy.
