- Ahoy Cruise Nerds! So today’s vlog is all about the French Market Inn in New Orleans, LA. It is right on the Mississippi River. We actually loved this Inn. It’s about 2 blocks away from the Trolley which you saw in my New Orleans blog. And about 30 minutes from the Main Airport via Uber. Which cost around 30 dollars or so. It’s about 12 minutes to the Port of New Orleans, which cost about roughly 13 dollars or less. The French Market Inn, one of the best hotels in New Orleans, Louisiana, is tucked away on the banks of the Mississippi River in the center of the French Quarter of New Orleans. This French Quarter hotel on Decatur is within six blocks of iconic New Orleans attractions like Jackson Square, the French Market, Aquarium of the Americas, Bourbon Street, and Harrah’s New Orleans Casino. The historic French Market Inn is renowned for its meandering garden and stone-paved courtyard. Its antique brick facade opens onto a lobby adorned with period paintings, chandeliers, and columns.The History
The original property deed was issued to a baker named Dreux in 1722. Shortly after, the Dreux family opened up a shop on the ground floor and used the second floor for family living. The third floor of their property was used to store imported and exported goods. Wagons and carriages would drive through the archways in the courtyard to deliver goods and to pick up deliveries. The bakery often supplied the Colonial Spanish, and later, the Colonial French Soldiers, who were stationed at the Place d’Armes (present day Jackson Square). In the early 1830s, the Baroness Pontalba y Almonaster purchased the Dreux’s bakery and the surrounding lots with the idea of opening an Inn for friends and business associates. The Inn opened and was well received by both the local Creole families and many visitors to the Cosmopolitan City of New Orleans. Soon after, in 1832, the first hauntings were recorded. Guests claimed to see misty shapes entering the rooms of the Inn after dark and heard loud metal noises echoing throughout the halls - reminiscent of the old pulley system the Dreux’s bakery used to hoist their goods to the upper levels back in the 18th century.

Good room review and property tour. The French Market inn is a favorite of mine when staying in New Orleans. I have been staying at The FMI for many years. Jackson Square and Cafe Du Monde is a 3-4-minute walk. There are many good restaurants within a short walk, along with bars. The area is safe and is on Decatur which is a major street through The Quarter. The windowless interior rooms are VERY quiet and comfortable. The front is very unassuming but once onside the property, it is beautiful.
My son and I are looking forward to our next stay at The FMI in March. Happy and Safe Travels
Our room in FMI was haunted. I was tired from walking all day. We went back to hotel room 5:30pm. Two family members left for a ghost tour(yes for a ghost tour that they hadn't found any ghost after) I turned on the tv trying not to sleep. But I fell asleep I didn't understand why the 2 chandeliers in our hotel room shook. That room is located off the main building, 2nd floor, opposite side of the small elevator and looking outside the window you can see white staircase. When we travel back to our home state I googled information about the FMI hotel. One person told his story and felt something in the room and saw blood stains on the blankets. I believe in the same room but I think they change the room number.
