    My boyfriend and I stayed 3 nights in this wonderful b&b. The detail in the rooms were perfect, along with the beautiful courtyards. The hot tub was a treat every night and even with other guests it was very private. To top if off, the hosts, Kevin and Rob really treat the guests special and take better care of them than any place I have ever stayed. The breakfasts are perfect and Kevin makes the most amazing pastries and unbelievable fruit plates. The location could not have been any better for a stay in New Orleans. Never had any problem parking and Frenchman St and the Quarter were in a short walking distance. We had an absolutely perfect weekend and we have already decided that we will visit B & W Courtyards at least once a year!


    Great stay

    My wife and I spent a week over Christmas in the Barbados Room, which is very quiet and comfortable and close to the hot tub which is a blessing on a cool winter's night. As others have emphasized, Rob and Kevin are great hosts, Rob the entertainer distracting you at breakfast while Kevin quietly leaves of preparing an excellent breakfast to clean your rooms and make the beds. Can't imaging a better place to stay in NO, very close to Frenchmen's and its great bars and music and just a hop, step and jump to the Quarter. Do try one of Kevin's excellent and affordable massages, too.


    A really nice place to stay

    The B&W is a very nice B&B with excellent hosts and a great location close to the French Quarter. The room we had was a bit on the small side but came with a nice bed and 21" TV. It was nicely decorated. One comment worth mentioning is that we could hear virtually everything being said through the adjoining wall so it would be a good idea to ask about that if you need absolute silence. Nonetheless our neighbors were very quiet after 11pm, so other than hearing their early evening "exercise" we had no trouble sleeping at all. The a/c works great and the courtyards are splendid. While local laws prohibit B&B's from serving a hot breakfast, Kevin really puts a nice flair with something different baked every day. The plates they use are especially beautiful and Rob is terrific about participating in morning conversations and giving tips and recommendations. That morning hour was one of the highlights of our stay. We learned a lot about New Orleans over the 4 days we were there from Rob. He's not shy at all about giving his opinions and is really delightful and appreciative of your business.

    Rob and Kevin are the perfect hosts for New Orleans. They know the French Quarter intimately, and have a well founded opinion on every establishment. Their advice is the lagniappe which comes from staying at their establishment. No one should fail to visit New Orleans; no one who goes to New Orleans should fail to visit the French Quarter and Marigny, and no one who visits these Districts should fail to stay at B & W Courtyards. Casey and Amos


    B&W Courtyards is a unique and charming place to stay.

    My husband and I loved our room at the B&W Courtyards with the comfortable many-pillowed bed and hand-painted scene on the walls and a big armoire to put our things. The bathroom had all the amenities. Outside our door was one of the several lush courtyards surrounding the house with beautiful old fountains and that soothing sound of water. The breakfast is delicious - lots of good coffee or tea, fruit, biscuits and homemade granola. Breakfast is served in a more formal room that reminded us that we were in a very French city. Rob and Kevin are so hospitable and have great ideas about where to go in New Orleans and especially important where to eat.
