The Brakeman Hotel is a great place to stay when visiting New Orleans! 4 block walk to Bourbon St/ French Quarter. Mr. Gregory is the man! He was very accommodating and gave excellent recommendations for food, jazz, bars, and entertainment!

Loved this property! The Brakeman Hotel entrance also contained the Basin St. Station which is the city of New Orleans' welcome center with adjoining landscaped parking for visitors. The first floor contains a staffed visitor information center featuring educational community exhibits, a performance venue, a walking tour kiosk, and an authentically New Orleans and Louisiana gift shop! The first floor is not a traditional hotel lobby per se but guests have access to the building entrance with the use of their room key. This safety measure was very reassuring, especially after the doors are closed to the public in the late afternoon. Our deluxe room was very nice with a comfy king bed and a wonderful view overlooking St Louis Cemetery No.1 and looking towards the French Quarter.

Friendly staff and well taken care of. Just across the street from the French quarter too. But their private events late at night are loud and some noise transfers between rooms pretty easily.
