Location and Proximity

Soniat House is located in the quieter, more residential French Quarter, two blocks from Bourbon Street. Landmarks nearby include French Market (0.5 km), French Quarter (0.5 km), Audubon Aquarium of the Americas (2 km), New Orleans Historic Voodoo Museum (0.5 km), Saint Louis Cathedral (0.5 km), Frenchmen Street (0.3 km), The National WWII Museum (2 km), and Jean Lafitte National Historical Park and Preserve (1 km). It is 5 km from New Orleans Lakefront.

Hotel Services

Housekeeping service is available once per day, or not at all, for the duration of your stay, according to preference. Soniat House Antiques features pieces from renowned designers such as Pierre Casenove, Aldo Tura, and Fornasetti.

“In my opinion, this is a hotel that understands New Orleans, delivering a quiet elegance just a short walk from the Quarter's bustle. The meticulous service and antique-filled rooms create a distinct atmosphere, setting it apart from typical hotels. I think it's a great choice for those seeking authentic charm and personalized attention.”
