The location is excellent for any jazz lover and the staff is phenomenal. I’ve stayed here multiple times and I strongly recommend it. Marigny is a little gem just outside the Quarter and definitely a MUST visit if you’re coming to NOLA. Royal Frenchman is a lovely and unique little place nestled in the neighborhood and has the best vibe. 5-stars across the board!

Every one on staff here is friendly attentive and helpful. From arrival to departure and everything in between. My favorite place when I visit. So impressed with The Marigny area and the locals, I will be promoting myself from 'guest' to neighbor before the end of the year! Can't say enough good things about this property, the staff, the live music and the surrounding area.

Like a glorified hostel
Was terribly disappointed in the hotel overall. Felt more like a hostel. Room was in the attic with a slanted ceiling, so if you’re anywhere close to 6ft, you won’t fit. No closet (just a small rod with about 4 hangers) so suitcases had to sit on the ground. And although the bathroom looked like it had been upgraded, there was no outlet so good luck trying to dry your hair (though ironically they provided a hair dryer?) Also it’s right on Frenchmen street so it’s loud regardless, but there’s live music in the lobby so you hear that too. It’s fine if you don’t want to sleep during your stay. It was so rough, we checked out 4 nights early and booked a different hotel in the garden district.

Nice Hotel and Best Spot for Music
We just stayed here on a Friday night before moving into the Quarter. The neatest thing about Royal Frenchmen is the music they have in the lobby every night. There’s only room for 20-30 people, so you’re right up on the performers, and there are 6-8 other places to listen to music on Frenchmen within 2-3 blocks if you prefer. There’s a nice bar in the room Nextdoor. The downside is that the music continues until midnight or 1:00 am on the weekend if you go to bed early. Also the staff are nice, you get a simple breakfast, and we came back three other times over the week, as it’s become our favorite place for music in NOLA

I want to give a fair and balanced review, so I will start with the positives. The boutique hotel is located on the corner of Royal and Frenchmen street and within walking distance to great restaurants and live music. The hotel lobby has charm and a nice courtyard. I also enjoyed the live music in the evening. Please note this is not the type of hotel to get a lot of rest given the live music and activities late into the evening. Now the challenges. While I submitted a request for early checkin...I never heard back from the hotel and our room was not ready for a 3pm check- in. When we finally got into our room around 3:30, the room was not fully cleaned, it was missing the iron and the remote control was missing a battery and inoperable. We immediately went to front desk and she worked to rectify the situation, however we never received the robes as indicated on the website. That evening as we pulled out the sofa bed, there were food particles and dirt on the mattress cover... we called to get new bedding. The next morning I contacted the front desk for housekeeping and they said they would arrive between 10-2. That afternoon we came back to the room, close to 3:30 and our room had not been cleaned. We contacted the manager about all of the issues and he along with housekeeping tidy up the room while we waited outside. We stayed for three nights and given the issues I won't stay again, but the manager did remove the parking charges bc of problems we had the first 2 days

Hard to get my room cleaned even when I followed the directions to get a refresh. Loud, they need to do something to sound proof the rooms. The breakfast was not really a breakfast. Staff were nice. Hallway had the same ball of hair/dust outside the elevator all five days of our stay. I’d stay again but, would like them to get the feedback!

We stayed at the Royal Frenchmen Hotel for a short weekend break, and it was great; it is a boutique hotel located in the heart of the French Quarter. It was clean, the room was spacious, and the bathroom had a walk-in shower. The hotel has a bar, and the bartender was great at mixing cocktails. Different live bands perform each night. check in was smooth, if you are looking for a quiet place, it may not be a good choice for you as the hotel is located in a very vibrant neighborhood with many bars and clubs working till early hours of morning *though it may be a case of Mardi Gras celebrations. I'll definitely be looking forward to my next visit and stay. there.

I booked this hotel for the location and availability of parking. It looked nice as we checked in and went to our room. Then things took a turn for the worse. The bed was firmer than the floor and very uncomfortable. We had to call the front desk to check the water heater every time we wanted a shower. It was still only warm and not hot. All rooms can hear the band in the bar all night. There were very good bands playing in the bar. The front desk staff were not familiar with local companies. As an example we asked if we could get a carriage ride from the hotel for sight seeing. They said I would need to look that up online. We will not stay here in our future visits to the area.

Perfect location for great music and food nearby!
The staff members are friendly and attentive. The bar has great craft cocktails. The live music is fun. However, being that it's an old building, keep in mind that your room may not have electrical outlets in the bathroom (a challenge for blow drying your hair, as that's the only place our room had a mirror.) Also, our room had no accessible/functioning windows so after a couple of days, the room was very muggy/stuffy - no fans, no way to open a window.
