The Brakeman Hotel - A boutique New Orleans hotel in a historic 1904 railway station with French Market-style café and rooftop views
Located in the culturally rich Tremé neighborhood, The Brakeman Hotel occupies the last remaining train station in New Orleans - the original Norfolk Southern Railway station from 1904. This 3-star New Orleans hotel features 18 guest rooms fitted with air conditioning, flat-screen TVs, refrigerators, coffee makers, and modern walk-in showers. The spacious rooms showcase historic brick walls, coffered ceilings, and elegant railroad-era furnishings. The hotel's Basin St Café serves classic New Orleans fare from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm daily, including café au lait, pastries, sandwiches and local Muffulettas. Additional amenities at The Brakeman include a 24-hour front desk, ATM, free WiFi, gift shop with local items, and concierge services. Situated just 0.5 miles from Bourbon Street and the French Quarter, the property provides direct access to jazz clubs, soul food spots and cultural centers celebrating the neighborhood's heritage.
Pros
Housed in New Orleans' last historic train station dating to 1904
Rooftop venue offers panoramic French Quarter views
Run by Valentino Hospitality with 60+ years of local hotel experience
French Market-style café serves authentic New Orleans cuisine
Cons
Rooftop terrace is only available for private events
Some rooms have no windows
“What struck me most is the hotel's successful blend of historic charm and modern convenience, notably the spacious rooms and the on-site café, featuring locally sourced treats; plus, you're only moments from the French Quarter. The unique rooftop event space is a real draw, offering memorable views of New Orleans. It's a solid choice for those seeking character and comfort close to the action.”
