About this property

Walk to French Quarter & cool off in the pool!

We are located in the Historic Faubourg Marigny, only two blocks from the French Quarter!

We have three lovely, private suites, each with an en suite bathroom. This listing includes all three suites. To rent individual suites, please send a message to the owner.

You will enjoy the diverse charms of our Marigny neighborhood and the easy accessibility to Frenchmen Street and the French Quarter. Our 1838 Creole Cottage has been lovingly renovated and updated to provide you with an authentic New Orleans experience. Walk to local bars, restaurants, parks, music venues and the many attractions of this historic city.
Owners Betsy and Bill Rayner live on the premises, with their basset hounds Marge and Mabel. You will be greeted each morning with a croon and a wag of two tails.

Generous continental breakfast is included in the rates.

The backyard deck and pool offers a relaxing beginning and end to each of your days in the Big Easy.

IMPORTANT: Guests have use of the dining room, deck and pool, but NOT the kitchen. As a licensed Bed and Breakfast, we offer unique and personalized hospitality, unlike owner-absent housing. We will be as responsive and helpful as you wish, all the while respecting your privacy.

No off-street parking is included with this property. Unrestricted street parking is readily available.

The perfect poolside stay for a group!
My friends and I were a group of 9 and had a great stay here. We loved the location, and the pool was the perfect way to cool down in the heat and lounge between our explorations of the city. We booked the whole house, and as the listing described this meant privacy everywhere except the kitchen/dining room area. Betsy was incredibly responsive and helpful leading up to our stay and during. We had some dietary restrictions and she was so accommodating and am amazing baker - the continental breakfast was a highlight. We enjoyed the casual atmosphere of the bnb. The dogs are indeed present so just a flag if anyone in your party has allergies. The bnb website (chezpalmiers.com) gives a good sense of the themed rooms. This was really the perfect place for our stay - thank you for everything Betsy!

First time in New Orleans!
We had a lovely four night stay on New Orleans! So close to activities and within walking distance. Betsy was so very kind, welcoming, and accommodating. We had a wonderful breakfast poolside each morning. Couldn't have had a happier stay. Thank you, Betsy!

Charming property and host!
Our family group of 3 couples stayed and loved the B&B. The 3 guest rooms are themed and very nice. The old house is very cool and there is a nice backyard with pool. Breakfast was good every morning. Betsy is a sweetheart and it was like staying with a friend!!! We will be back!!
