    Best B&B We've Ever Stayed At!

    We stayed at the Southern Comfort for a week and I must say, I have never felt more welcomed or more at home at any other B&B. The home is so tastefully furnished & decorated. Cindee, the owner, spoiled us with her amazing culinary skills each morning. We were treated to gourmet breakfasts including fresh fruit, bacon, sausage, yogurt, and a new main course each morning. She is also very knowledgable about NOLA. She helped plan an itinerary for us that would allow time for all of the things we wanted to do, as well as things she suggested we might enjoy (and she was correct!). Her suggestions for dinning were perfect. The location of the B&B is in the beautiful uptown area, just two blocks off St. Charles where you can catch the street car. This allowed us to save money on not renting a car. I can go on and on. You won't be disappointed. I know where we'll be staying next time we visit!


    Wonderful NOLA B&B!

    Having stayed in a number of New Orleans B&Bs over the last three years, I can safely state that this one is my favorite so far. Cindee makes scrumptious breakfasts and is a wonderful, friendly and hospitable hostess who makes you feel at home. The house and rooms are well maintained and very clean. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will stay there on future trips to NOLA (assuming Cindee still has rooms available during the time we want to stay).


    Highly recommend!

    As veteran bed & breakfast patrons, my husband once again picked the perfect getaway lodging when he booked our 20th Anniversary trip to New Orleans and Southern Comfort B&B! Our innkeeper was very attentive to our needs and gave us terrific suggestions on places to experience authentic New Orleans cuisine and entertainment. Southern Comfort's accommodations were elegant and comfortable and our gourmet breakfasts were scrumptous!! We will certainly make another visit to explore New Orleans and stay at our new best kept secret - Southern Comfort Bed & Breakfast!!!

    Southern Comfort was a great place to stay in New Orleans. We really enjoyed being close to alot of what the City offers. Excellent dining on Magazine Street, beautiful homes in the area, and history galore. Cindee is a wonderful host.
