Hotel Peter and Paul

Hotel Peter and Paul is a boutique hotel at 2317 Burgundy Street in the Marigny and Bywater area of New Orleans, Louisiana, occupying a restored complex of a church, school and convent. The neighborhood lies downriver from the French Quarter and is known for its colorful shotgun houses, local bars and music venues, with Frenchmen Street's clubs about a short ride or a walk of roughly twenty minutes away and the Quarter beyond that. The setting suits visitors who want a more local, less touristy part of the city, with independent restaurants, bakeries and bars in the surrounding streets. The historic buildings give the hotel a striking character, with high ceilings, large windows and a design that blends the original religious architecture with contemporary furnishings. Rooms are offered as King, Queen and Suite types, and nightly rates generally run from about US$180 to US$380 depending on season and room. Amenities include a restaurant, a bar and a courtyard, which serve as social hubs for guests and neighbors. The on-site dining highlights seasonal, locally sourced cooking, and the bar is a good place for a cocktail before exploring the neighborhood's music scene. Service is relaxed and design-aware, appealing to couples, creative travelers and visitors looking for a distinctive stay with a strong sense of place. The hotel has no large pool or spa, and the location means visitors typically rely on walking, biking, ride services or the bus to reach the French Quarter and other attractions. Those who enjoy neighborhood exploration will appreciate the nearby Crescent Park riverfront, the Bywater murals and small galleries. Evening walks in the Marigny are generally lively on weekends, though visitors should use usual urban caution and consider ride services after dark. Advance booking is advisable for Jazz Fest and holiday periods, since the property has a limited number of rooms.
