The Queen Anne

New Orleans


This B&B in a historical home, operated by the folks at nearby Prytania Park, is charming without being too overtly lace curtain. It's an 'adults only' property – guests must be over 25 – which presumably cuts down on the bad behavior folks tend to associate with New Orleans. All rooms have coffee makers, TVs and fridges, a nice touch for an older property.
