The location was perfect and plenty of parking if you’re driving there. The only bad thing is there is no pool.

Nice boutique hotel near Louis I cemetery. Walkable to the FQ. Limited amenities… cafe doesn’t open until 8:30 and closes at 3 pm. Some dining and drinking establishments within a couple blocks… bar tonique and jewel of the south especially notable.

Very pleased with my stay at The Brakeman. Historic boutique hotel close to everything but not too close! Will absolutely stay here again, next time I’m in NOLA.

10/10

This hotel was beautiful! Had a very historic feel, while having the modern convenience. Make sure to visit the gift shop. You can book most any tour in the lobby. Has a great cafe, that I wish opened just a bit earlier. 4 blocks from Bourbon St, so the tipsy walk home isn't too bad. The rooms are HUGE! Nice bathroom and shower. Overall, a great place to stay.
