About this property

Welcome to Mag's Guest House

Mag's Guest House is a modest hotel located at 940 Elysian Fields Ave, placing guests in the lively heart of New Orleans. The property offers essential amenities such as free Wi-Fi and parking, while focusing on a kid-friendly atmosphere. However, it does not feature a pool, restaurant, or fitness center, which may be considerations for those seeking more comprehensive onsite facilities.

The hotel’s surroundings present plenty of opportunities for exploration, with nearby attractions including The National WWII Museum, Jackson Square, and the historic St. Louis Cathedral. Guests can enjoy vibrant local culture, especially along Frenchmen Street, known for its jazz clubs and after-dark art market, which creates an engaging experience for visitors who appreciate live music and art scenes.

Though guest feedback reflects a moderate overall rating of 3.1 based on 22 reviews, many appreciate the convenient location and access to various dining and shopping options just a short walk away. One guest noted the ease of getting around and the nearby state park, highlighting its practicality for visitors looking to explore the city.

For those arriving by air, Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport is approximately a 20-minute drive, making the hotel accessible yet comfortably situated away from the busiest parts of the city. Nearby hotels like the Historic Mardi Gras Inn and Blue60 Marigny Inn provide alternative lodging options within a short distance, giving travelers a variety of choices in this dynamic neighborhood.
