What guests say
9.4 / 10 · Wonderful on Booking.com, from 65 guest reviews
The 1896 O'Malley House earns near-universal praise for its exceptionally warm hosts (Sally and Brent), daily varied breakfasts, and the authentic charm of a beautifully kept historic New Orleans home. A handful of guests flag practical shortcomings — small TVs, some non-ensuite bathrooms, slow hot water, and occasional Wi-Fi drops — but the overwhelming sentiment is that these quirks are inseparable from the building's 19th-century character and do little to deter return visits.
