Are you a pet person? So is everyone here at Creole Gardens! We can’t imagine traveling without our four-legged family members, and we don’t think you should have to, either. Unlike most so-called “pet-friendly” hotels, we don’t set arbitrary weight, breed, or pet number restrictions. Our goal is to make it easy to vacation with your fur kids. Our pet fee is $15 per stay for one pet, and $10 for each additional pet.

If you plan to travel to New Orleans with your pets, we offer pet-friendly stays in any of our Cottage Rooms. We’re also happy to assist you in finding fun places to explore with your furry friends. New Orleans has a number of dog-friendly parks, bars, shops, and eateries. Read on to find out more about our nearest dog park and the nearby Mississippi River levee!

There’s a wonderful pet-friendly park right around the corner from us. Well-behaved dogs are allowed off the leash and there are “pooper scooper” bags for your use. Walk your canine pal over to Coliseum Square Park, just one block away and enjoy the fresh air, a large fountain, live oak trees and lots of fun folks and pooches. It’s three blocks long, one block wide, and surrounded by a wonderful assortment of 1880s-era mansions. Meet the locals (writers, politicians, movie stars, and artists) and give your pooch some good exercise!

The world-famous New Orleans levee is just a 10-minute drive uptown (south, near Tulane University) from us. And by “world famous,” we mean famous amongst dogs in the know, because every savvy New Orleans pooch knows that the levee at the end of Magazine Street is simply the best place to run, sniff, play, romp, and even swim in the Mississippi River! Park your Chevy by the levee and enjoy acres and acres of riverfront park, and even a little pebble beach. We like to say it’s the happiest place in New Orleans. On afternoons and weekends, it’s also a great place to meet the locals, including Tulane and Loyola students and faculty members.
