We really loved this cozy place with their nice backyard. The staff were great and gave us lots of useful info and recommendations. Information provided on the board of the hostel about restaurants and events were great. We loved Taj Mahal the cat! :)

The best hostel I have ever stayed. The location was really good, close to Bourbon Street. Every evening there is a happy hour and you can get free soda, water and beer. We met great people from the whole world. Every evening they also organized some activities - going to the bar, playing cards etc. Staff was really helpful and nice. The room was clean.

I don't usually write reviews but staying at this place made the difference in my trip. I was on my own and the size and kind of the hostel made it possible for me - and I'm on the shy side - to meet a lot of new and interesting people I could spend time with while exploring the city. The hostel and above all the bathroom are clean and everything went smoothly. Location is great, the neighborhood is cool and close to the center and the lovely lower garden district.

All hostels in New Orleans

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The reality was better than the pictures, cleanliness, privacy, location of the place, staff, breakfast, safety, everything was perfect. I was in New York and there was a hostel with the same name. I stayed there for several days, but this hostel in New Orleans was the best in everything. How I wish New York had a place like this.

    I like everything in this hostel. The kitchen is fully equipped, very clean and roomy. The bathrooms are always kept clean with many clean towels. There are a lot of seats/sofas in the lounge and dining room. I like everything in this hostel. It is the best hostel that I have been in USA so far. Thanks to the manager and all staff working in the hostel. You guys have done a great job.
