New Orleans Bed and Breakfast Beds

I've been looking at some online photos that other innkeepers use to promote their properties.  There are a lot of pictures of beds.  Nobody comes to New Orleans to watch television, and nobody comes to New Orleans to sleep, but it's important to have a welcoming place to catch up on your shut-eye, either way.  Every one of our suites has cable TV.

While the antique beds, just like all the other furnishings, are part of La Belle Esplanade bed and breakfast's je n'est c'est quoi, appeal, pictures don't do them justice.  I can blame my photography skills, or I can blame my phone.  The truth is, pictures can never prepare the viewer for experiencing something enchanting in the round and in the flesh.

Our guests from Toronto said, "We didn't realize the rooms were so spacious.  We figured that if you didn't show the ceilings, they must be low."  One of them is a real estate agent.  Frau Schmitt tells me that the ceilings are 12 and a half feet high.  She is usually right about these things.  Tammie, our housekeeper, tells me that she needs a twelve-foot ladder to dust the ceiling fans. 


While I personally feel pictures of beds to be a bit boring, we present them here for your perusal:
Les Saintes Suite bed
Les Fleurs Suite bed
La France Suite bed

Clio Suite bed
La Pelican Suite bed
We have five suites at La Belle Esplanade bed and breakfast.  They are all comfortable.  When you sleep in New Orleans, you will have good dreams.  When you stay at La Belle Esplanade, you will have a good breakfast waiting for you, too.  

New Orleans is more than a collection of hotel rooms.  It is a city of neighborhoods.  We are in the middle of Esplanade Avenue.  It's about a 20 minute stroll to the French Quarter and the Marigny, and it's about a 20 minute promenade to City Park and the New Orleans Museum of Art.

You can reserve a room in an international chain hotel, or you can opt for a boutique experience.  We are proud of our beds, of course, but our inn contains much, much more than sleeping arrangements.  We are surrounded by much, much more than you'll read about in a guide book or a tourism brochure.  We do a good job of being welcoming hosts, but the city we call home does all the heavy lifting.  You can't stay in New Orleans without falling in love and wanting to come back again. 

Please check out web site and reserve a suite directly from our online calendar.  When you cut out the middleman, you save.  You'll be able to afford another one or two nights more, or more.

A votre sante.
