We like New Orleans pretty well, though find the French Quarter disturbingly touristy after an hour or so, so it was very nice to get out of downtown when we were done there. This small hotel is at the edge of the Lower Garden District, which is pretty spotty---some very nice restaurants (including Emeril's Delmonico) are right there, and it's... More

The hospitality at this inn is great and the innkeepers know the city well. The prices can't be beat and the decor is charming. I highly recommend this inn and can't wait for the restaurant to open in Spring 2004! More

Not true about the TVs - we found the Inn charming and comfortable! Great value and friendly staff. Easy way to enjoy a trip with the family. Close to the street car and other attractions. Can't wait to get back to the Inn! More

The name Old World Inn suits the place -- this is a European style hotel -- small and charming with "character" and friendly, helpful staff. The new owner is redecorating, put TVs in the rooms, is adding a restaurant, and keeping the charm of the place. The location is very convenient to the streetcar stop that is right across the...
