The Quisby is a hostel in New Orleans,LA located on historic Saint Charles Ave. Guests can enjoy the on-site bar and relax in the lobby lounge.

Rooms come with a private bathroom. The Quisby features free WiFi throughout the property.

This is one of the nice and cleanest hostels I have stayed at. We had a private room which was clean and spacious. The staff were helpful and accomodating. The hostel is located on the streetcar line with a 10 minute journey into the French Quarter and about 30 minutes to Uptown. You can also take a short walk down to Magazine Street where there are endless shopping and dining options. There is a free breakfast provided which we enjoyed.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
