Lion's Inn Review
From the swimming pool and hot tub in the private garden to the singularly elegant, Old South room decor, this B&B resembles a traditional Louisiana mansion, and its location makes it handy for visiting the many nightspots and restaurants on Frenchmen Street. The leisurely Continental breakfast in the courtyard is the perfect way to start the day, and the wine hour at dusk is relaxing and sociable. The owners are as hospitable as they come—they even provide bicycles to get around town.
