One of the most distinctive and photographed of the small inns of the French Quarter, The Cornstalk Hotel offers its visitors a unique experience of Victorian charm in the heart of the Vieux Carre’. Located on Royal Street, just a short distance from the raucous Bourbon Street with the bright lights and endless parties.
Built in 1816 as the home of the first Attorney General of Louisiana, François Xavier-Martin, the Cornstalk Hotel attracts travelers who are intrigued by its history and old-world appeal.
In 1834, the home was purchased by Dr. Joseph Secondo Biamenti for himself and his wife. A little over 20 years later, Dr. Biamenti’s wife fell homesick for her state of Iowa. In hopes to ease her heartache, he had commissioned to have a decorative iron fence depicting corn created and erected around the home.
