RUTHIE’S BALCONY SUITE (Sleeps 2 adults):
Second floor + Premiere balcony + Huge bedroom/living area + Sunny kitchenette + Queen pillow-top bed and sofa

A special New Orleans gem, Ruthie’s Balcony Suite bears the name of our beloved family matriarch. Vaulted ceilings soar above a huge bedroom/living area, including a spacious sunlit kitchenette and full-sized private bathroom. But it’s the balcony you’ll love most. Overlooking the corner of Esplanade and Chartres, it’s the perfect place to people-watch while enjoying the pot pourri of sounds that drift over from the nearby markets, jazz clubs, and bustling Mississippi waterfront.


THE LANAUX 2-BEDROOM SUITE (Sleeps up to 6):
Second floor + Two huge separate King bedrooms + balcony + kitchenette + private bathroom with separate entrances

Our namesake two-bedroom suite is as beautiful as it is spacious, combining original period architecture with an elegant Parisian theme and all the modern comforts you could want — A/C, wi-fi, smart HDTVs, and more. A private balcony, en-suite bathroom, sunlit atrium kitchenette, and king-sized pillow-tops in separate bedrooms invite you to stay right next door to your friends, yet still enjoy a space of your own. A daybed in the main room sleeps a fifth guest and a futon in the second bedroom can accommodate a 6th if needed. Vaulted 14-foot ceilings soar high above it all, adding to the sense of openness and grandeur.

BETH’S BALCONY ESCAPE (Sleeps up to 4):
Second floor + courtyard balcony + queen bed + pullout sleeper sofa + large living room + kitchenette with dining nook + private bathroom + private entrance

With its airy vaulted ceiling, original hardwood floors, soft tones, and vibrant Big Easy artwork, the “Escape” exudes both calm relaxation and energy. You’ll enjoy the private bathroom (including bathtub) and large kitchenette with dining nook. But even more, we think you’ll love your exclusive balcony overlooking our courtyard — the perfect place to enjoy coffees and cocktails while listening to the chirping of birds and the jazz floating in from the city. Beth’s Balcony Escape is on our second floor and is reached by a private rustic staircase near the back of the main house, but it sits right next to our Lanaux Two-Bedroom Suite if you’d like to open up the doors between them.

THE WIELAND SUITE (Sleeps 2):
Deluxe 3-room ground-floor suite with extra-large bedroom + Separate kitchenette + Private laundry room + Courtyard access

Featuring an enormous, vaulted king bedroom and sitting area, a spacious kitchenette with breakfast nook, and even a private laundry room, the deluxe Wieland Suite is one of our largest and best. Enter through an exclusive gate off Chartres Street and pass right by our garden courtyard — your personal place for relaxed coffees or cocktails — to reach this stylishly decorated oasis on the mansion’s ground floor.

Explore the neighborhood easily on foot, hop on a lighted bike tour, indulge in a cocktail tour, get spooky with a Ghost and Spirits tour in French Quarter. The Steamboat Natchez riverboat is just a short stroll away on the banks of the Mississippi, as is great antique shopping on Royal Street, not to mention 20 of the city's best restaurants.
