Welcome to Chez Palmiers Bed and Breakfast
Your New Orleans Home Away From Home
Home of the 2010 Super Bowl Champions:
The New Orleans Saints!
Chez Palmiers is the expression of its owners' love for New Orleans and their desire to be part of this great city's recovery.
Located in the historic Faubourg Marigny
just two blocks from the French Quarter and four blocks from Frenchman Street
(popular with the neighborhood's locals), you'll be within easy walking distance
of many of the sites, restaurants, bars and clubs, and the characters and music that have
made New Orleans famous. Public transportation is not far way, making it
easy to explore other parts of the city as well.
Owner operators Schuyler Hoffman and David Peterson invite you to relax and enjoy your stay in New Orleans in their traditional Creole Cottage. Originally built in the late 1800's, it was renovated in the mid 1990's. What we have tried to create is a home, not just bedrooms for guests—it is, after all, our home. Furnishings are a mix of some of our favorite antiques and newer things—interesting pieces we find at yard sales and antique shops around the city. Each room contains personal photographs and artwork, and memorabilia and chatkas we've accumulated and carried around with us over the years. Everyone looking for a bed and breakfast looks for a place that fits their personality, a place they'll be comfortable in for more than just sleeping each night. We hope you will find that place with us.
We
invite you to spend your mornings, afternoons, and evenings on the deck by the
pool—although we
often find ourselves chatting with guests in the kitchen. Following a day
of touring around the city, shopping in the French Quarter and on Magazine
Street, visiting the famous Audubon Zoo and Aquarium, or after an evening of
dining and nightlife, dangle your tired feet in the water or go for a swim and
cool off before retiring to your private, air conditioned room and a good
night's sleep in one of our comfy queen-size beds.
The Rooms
Chez Palmiers (House of Palms) offers three different rooms, all with queen beds, private baths, and in-room amenities to make your stay with us more enjoyable. You'll have your own TV and air conditioner, a mini-fridge as well as open access to the dining room leading to the pool. A continental breakfast is available each morning including yogurt, fruit, cereals, breads, juices and coffee. An espresso machine is available for those who crave a latté or café au lait. We also offer free, secure WIFI Internet access. (By city ordinance, B&B's our size are not permitted to serve prepared meals.)
The Grande Suite
The
Grande Suite offers roomy accommodations with a bedroom and large bathroom with
vanity area. This charming
suite includes the amenities mentioned above, a closet, and sitting room with a
sofa and chairs. You'll be able to enjoy your
breakfast in private, or relax and watch TV comfortably in the serenity of this
personal space. The Grande Suite sleeps one to two people. Rates and
reservations below.
The Blah Blah Room
Located on the first floor...The
Blah Blah room! You'll dream the night away comfortably in your bed,
cooled by the in-room air conditioner. You can unwind watching TV in bed or from
the sitting chairs in the room. There's an antique secretary, perfect for your
laptop and catching up on emails—telling
your friends how great Chez Palmiers is.
The single window ensures you'll be able to sleep
as long as you like with as little light intrusion as possible. The bathroom for
this room was recently remodeled with new tile, lighting, and a wardrobe closet.
The kitchen is just one door away, and the pool easily accessible through the
common dining room. The Blah Blah room accommodates one to two guests. Rates
and reservations below.
The Loft Suite
This upstairs space has been transformed into a roomy, private
suite. Enjoy breakfast in your room, or join other guests in the dining room or on
the poolside deck. Freshly furnished and decorated, the Loft Suite offers you the
space and privacy you deserve after a long day of site seeing. The unique
writing secretary provides room for your laptop or stationary. You can read
through all the tourist pamphlets while relaxing in the separate sitting area. The conversation area, with
drop-leaf table, provides the space to share your morning coffee with your
companion. The additional sitting area has room for you to stretch out and relax
(or accommodate and additional friend) without having to lay on the bed. The Loft can accommodate one to
three guests. (The bathroom has a shower, no tub.) Rates and reservations below.
