What a treat! Our bridge group visited New Orleans to celebrate a big birthday in the group. We took a chance booking the Lafitte Guest House because no one had recommended it. After calling to inquire, the house manager sold me on it. We could not have been happier. The location was wonderful and the rooms were grand. But the... more

My husband and I stayed at Lafitte Guest House twice before Katrina, and we were crushed when we found out that it had closed following the storm. When we heard that new owners had renovated and reopened the property, we couldn't wait to come back. We just returned from New Orleans, and we enjoyed Lafitte as much as ever, if... more

We stayed two nights in room 21 with a balcony. If you love to Photograph history this is the spot. You might also find some interesting things in your pictures like orbs witch are thought to be spirits in the ghost hunting field. Room 21 is full of spirits!! We think we caught one on film more

We were excited to stay at Lafitte Guest House after reading reviews, but when plans changed and we had to cancel our room, we had an extremely hard time getting our deposit back.

The hotel has some parking and there is an elevator. Our room... more

Full of antiques with nothing but New Orleans charm. My Husband and 3 friends stayed only one night but had a wonderful evening. We stayed in rooms 21 and... more

If you want to live the history and southern culture -stay here. The staff was excellent. The service was excellent. The rooms - maybe a little eclectic in some areas - were old and big and perfect. We've never been treated better, more courteously and with more warmth - and we've stayed in a lot of the Quarter hotels. What... more

We have been to New Orleans several times and have always stayed at the same place. This time we thought we would try somewhere different, so we booked a stay at the Lafitte Guest House.

The air condiitoning in the room was not... more
