Balcony Guest House New Orleans Review
Featuring 13 rooms, Balcony Guest House New Orleans is near an entertainment district and about a 19-minute walk from the historic Bourbon Street. There is parking nearby and Wi Fi throughout the property.
The Balcony Guest House features a continental breakfast daily in the restaurant. The lounge bar provides you with a place to unwind. It also looks onto the city. Set next to this New Orleans hotel, the pub Upstairs at Mimi's offers a Spanish menu.
Standing 0.6 km from Washington Square Park, the bed & breakfast also offers easy access to the immense indoor stadium "Mercedes-Benz Superdome" which is approximately 10 minutes away by car. I.J. Reilly's Knick Knacks and Curiosities is about 6 minutes' walk away, while Chartres Street is in front of this 3-star hotel.
No matter the religion, travellers prefer to visit the triple-spired 18th-century Saint Louis Cathedral, a popular place of worship set around a 19-minute walk from the accommodation.
Some rooms provide coffee/tea making machines as well as a flat-screen TV to help you enjoy your stay. The units are designed in a comfortable manner. The full bathrooms are fitted with an additional toilet and a bath together with a hairdryer and free toiletries.
New Orleans Lakefront airport lies 15 km away from Balcony Guest House and it takes about 15 minutes by car to get there.
A sundeck and a picnic area are available for an additional charge.
