New Orleans Hostel - Marquette House

"If you're after a hostel that's not a full-on party house nor a sterile dorm, you'll find a good balance at Marquette House. The female dorms are located above the main hostel building off Carondelet Street and the male dorms are located behind in adjacent mini buildings, where there are four to six dorm beds downstairs and the same number upstairs. Marquette House doesn't pretend it offers lots of amenities, but it does the job as a decent and generally clean hostel. The outdoor garden...

India House Backpacker's Hostel

"I found the staff very friendly. The whole place had a great atmosphere. It was a lot more than just a place to stay!" … "The place is dirty and the bugs are scary, but after the first time staying there you will never go to another hostel in the city. It is the absolute best place to say in New Orleans. I have stayed there a couple of times and the first time I was terrified until I met people, and then I just shrugged off the other stuff. I never saw a rat :(." … "Stayed here...

Joe & Flo's Olde Candelight Hostel

"I just have to say for the price it's perfect. Cingy and Darren make you feel right at home. They are just great!!! Enjoy!!" … "Located in a neighborhood full of local, black people, this hostel is a modest walking distance from the French Quarter. We paid $50 for a private room that was over-priced by about a couple of bucks because of the missing TV remote, shared bathrooms, fees for toilet paper and towels, and a darkly-lit corridor leading to our room. We were there for three nights...

I love New Orleans.

Ever seen or been in a city with soul? Character, history, food, music, people, beads, booze, and fun -- the one and only New Orleans. It's a must visit and you'll return.

If your idea of a good time is to be in a place with drunken vomiting idiots, getting robbed, and constant pan handling then N.O is for you.

I've been to New Orleans four times and I can't get enough. My heart and prayers go out to them as they go through post-Katrina rebuilding. This is one of the greatest cities in America and if you want to party til dawn, they will lead you the way!! I think everyone who truly loves this city will make reservations to go there in the very near future, I know I am. Just like New York after 9/11, they are going to need the business and tourist dollars.

As well as seeing the city itself get out and see some of the old plantations along the Mississippi if you have transport - some are really interesting and beautiful and there's a lot of history behind them.

Got back a week ago, and I'm already planning a trip back. Between the beautiful sites during the day and the partying by night, I barely slept the whole time I was there. I'd sugest New Orleans to anyone, young or old.

New Orleans is a great place, for sho. But plz don't go to Burbon Street more than once - tis not worth it. Frenchman Street, Decatur, and Magazine kick ass tho - had a REAL good time!

I love New Orleans. I plan to move to this beautiful city. Go down, you won't regret it at all. Party or relax, you'll love it.

Avoid the Steamboat Natchez. Ugh, just awful. Don't know what we were thinking. Haunted History tours usually have the best tour guides. They're very theatrical and fun. However, if it's a really busy night they may call guides from other companies who don't have as much experience. It's hard not to have a good time here. Get out and do your own thing. You won't regret it.
