    Amazing!!! The Dauphine House is close to the airport and downtoen New Orleans. We felt secure; Karen our host really mad us feel at home, our accommodations were beautifully decorated. Continental breakfast eash day and fresh lines. Maps of the city, intresting places, nice places to eat and place to stay away. This was our first experience, at a bed and breakfast let me tell you it was quiet, safe, clean, pleasant and reasonably priced accommodations I strongly recommend The Dauphine House. Sandra & Ben

    I must say that my husband and I were very impressed w/the room (Igenue), it looked just like the picture on-line! The bathroom was as large as the bedroom; the muffins were in abundance and the fridge had fresh OJ. Karen was a great host, providing maps for the local attractions. We will always make this our home away from home when we are in New Orleans. Thxs Karen for ALL that you did to make our stay memorable. Fred & Donna Myles (Charlotte, NC)

    This B&B is the best. We would not stay at any other. Karen was so helpful, and she really makes you feel like family. The rooms clean and have everything you would need for your stay. We will be back.


    Excellent! Thanks!

    Recently stayed here for a weekend in the French Quarter. This place was amazing, the owner is also a tour guide and her recommendations ended being the best places we visited. Location, value, atmosphere - everything about this place was outstanding. Thanks!
