Chimes Bed and Breakfast
1146 Constantinople St., New Orleans, Louisiana 70115, USA
Why We Like It
It has none of the kitschy or run-down qualities you might associate with a B&B; instead, this property is impeccably clean, bright, and spacious. The beautiful neighborhood is close enough to attractions, local shops, and award-winning restaurants.
In a roomy Victorian house on a quiet street in the Garden District, guests will discover charming, sophisticated guestrooms and a beautifully landscaped courtyard. The residential neighborhood is quiet, with shops and restaurants close by on Magazine Street.
Many parades pass by St. Charles Avenue in this neighborhood during Mardi Gras, and this area is a pleasant way to enjoy the festivities in a more local-feeling, family setting than the French Quarter.
room
Guest rooms are large and bright. Many have antique features like four poster beds and chandeliers. All rooms have sitting areas and private entrances that open out onto the courtyard.
bathroom
Large, tiled bathrooms have bathtub shower combinations or spacious walk-in showers.
dining
Breakfast in the sunny dining room includes eggs, pastries, fruit, coffee and tea.
YOU SHOULD KNOW The friendly innkeepers are happy to accommodate dietary needs if you let them know in advance of your stay.
drinking
The courtyard is a great place to relax with a cocktail after a long day exploring town. Purchase wine, beer, and spirits to bring back to the B&B from Martin's Wine Cellar (8-minute walk).
