The take
The Take
The Vibe
Hotel Peter and Paul foregrounds its architecture: a converted Catholic school and a nineteenth-century church that the renovation intentionally preserves rather than neutralizes. The property leverages weathered materials, richly textured surfaces and the accumulated patina of old buildings to create an atmosphere where structure is the central design argument. Rooms are distributed across three distinct buildings — Schoolhouse, Rectory and Convent — each with its own spatial logic, and the overall effect favors character and mood over flashy amenities. The result is a boutique stay that feels crafted, intimate and quietly evocative of New Orleans history.
Best For
This hotel suits travelers who prize history, architectural curiosity and a sense of place. Couples and small parties looking for an intimate, design-forward weekend escape or anniversary stay will appreciate the evocative interiors and compact scale: the property totals 71 rooms spread across three distinct buildings. Guests who prefer atmosphere and context over marble-clad luxury or resort-style amenities will find this a rewarding choice. It also appeals to visitors seeking a distinctly New Orleans experience anchored in preserved, sacred-architecture conversions rather than generic international hotel design.
Stay Tips
When booking, note that the 71 rooms sit in three different structures with different footprints: Schoolhouse rooms tend to be more compact, while Rectory and Convent rooms offer more generous layouts. If space is a priority, reserve in the Rectory or Convent; if you want a snug, classroom-scaled room, choose the Schoolhouse. Keep expectations aligned with the hotel’s ethos — the property emphasizes atmosphere and historic character rather than five-star amenity excess — and plan accordingly when selecting room type and length of stay.

How Hotel Peter and Paul compares in New Orleans
Hotel Peter and Paul is the pick for travelers who want a quieter, character-heavy stay outside the most obvious French Quarter hotel lane. Hotel Monteleone is the safer choice for guests who want a classic, full-service New Orleans hotel experience with more built-in infrastructure. Choose Peter and Paul for atmosphere and a more personal-feeling trip; choose Monteleone when convenience and traditional hotel scale matter more.
Soniat House and The Celestine New Orleans are the closer cross-shops for travelers who want charm over chain predictability. Soniat House is the one to compare if the brief is intimate and old-New-Orleans in tone. The Celestine is the better fallback if availability is easier or the rate is more attractive for the dates.
W New Orleans - French Quarter works better for travelers who want a branded hotel feel and a more social French Quarter base. Royal Street Inn & R Bar is a sharper fit for guests who want a smaller, nightlife-adjacent stay. If Hotel Peter and Paul is unavailable, start with The Celestine or Soniat House for a similar boutique decision set.
