Extra spacious

Guests love this home’s spaciousness for a comfortable stay.
Sunrise to sunset, this king sized room features hand painted super graphics to accent all the funky amenities. Sputnik light fixture, comfy mid century modern lounge chairs with ottomans, vintage armoire, cat clock & more! The bluetooth record player, smart TV & bohemian style living room are a perfect mix of that vintage feel and modern comfort.

The space
Welcome to the Hard Sell Hotel, where funky meets fabulous! This retro-inspired space is the perfect backdrop for your New Orleans adventure, setting the scene for a trip that's anything but ordinary. We’re located right on St. Claude Avenue above local hot-spot Arabella Casa di Pasta. The Marigny is one of the city's most vibrant and eclectic neighborhoods, known for its creative spirit and colorful Creole cottages. You'll be surrounded by the best of the city's bohemian vibe, with countless art galleries, cozy coffee shops, and lively bars just outside your door. Don't miss belting out a tune at the legendary Kajun's Pub—New Orleans' best karaoke bar—right next door! The iconic jazz clubs of Frenchmen Street are only a 10-minute walk away, ready to immerse you in the city's famous live music scene. Get lost in history with a leisurely 20-minute walk to the historic French Quarter. It's a journey back in time and the perfect way to experience the city's classic charm...or party till the sun comes up ; )
Ready to pick your home base? We have six private rooms; scroll to the bottom of Mowgli or Erica's profiles to check them all out.

Guest access
The Hard Sell Hotel offers hostel style accommodations with private sleeping quarters and shared common areas. Each bedroom is accessible with a unique coded pad lock for your safety and privacy. The common areas include 2 full bathrooms, laundry area, kitchen and outdoor patio.

Other things to note
While most of our guests do not have a problem with the noise level, we want to be very clear that our hostel is above a busy restaurant and next to a late night bar. The night life in this area is loud and vibrant, especially on the weekends or during festival season. Please consider one of our other rooms if you have trouble sleeping. Ear plugs are provided and we encourage you to utilize the bluetooth record player as a white noise machine.
