The Laurel Bed And Breakfast

Laura was a delightful host. She was so generous, even going to pick up a pizza I'd ordered the night I arrived, since I hadn't had a chance to have dinner. She was kind and accommodating, and I couldn't have asked for a nicer host.

This is a beautiful property with a private entrance and everything you need. It's in a fairly quiet location but close to bus and streetcar stops. The host is fantastic. I would absolutely stay here again if I'm in the area!

Loved the location and neighborhood. Nice and specious with plenty of privacy. Yummy breakfast and very helpful and attentive owners!

The property is in the City Park area. We walked to the Park for a wedding/reception. Totally safe area. Quiet, little traffic and neighborhood nice. Totally recommend. Streetcar access is close. Laura told us how to access it and we had no trouble. Property is lovely.

Liked the character of the property. The property is about 100 years old. Very clean! Laurel gave us great ideas on things to do in the area and is a great hostess.

Laura was an excellent host! This was my first time staying at a B&B. I was nervous about it because I am sort of a germaphobe, but Laura really made this an awesome experience! We had our own super clean area with a bathroom and a sitting area. In there was a refrigerator, microwave and coffee maker. I will always remember this trip!

Laura was such a wonderful host. She was very knowledgeable about NOLA. She gave us great ideas about food and fun. Great experience and a beautiful property.

Great location close to trolly. Tastefully decorated.

My partner and I had such a wonderful timing staying here - we really cannot recommend the Laurel Bed and Breakfast enough. It's a hidden gem in the Mid-city neighborhood and is the perfect escape from the busy downtown. It has everything you need: quick commutes via Streetcar to virtually any part of the city, beautiful walks along City Park and local neighborhood eateries that were a joy to visit. Laura is an incredible host, very communicative and is dedicated to making sure your stay is special and inviting. If you are visiting New Orleans, you must stay here.

Absolute gem - easy access to great food and City Park, along with two trolleys into the city. Hostess made our stay very cozy. Will book again, next time in the Big Easy.Would recommended finding more info on their website.

The house is lovely and the hostess is kind and interesting. She/they have a lot of fascinating art. The bedroom was comfortable, the sitting room was particularly nice as it had a lot of light from many windows. The breakfast was not extensive but it was fine. good coffee. The neighborhood was pretty and full of those wonderful trees that New Orleans is famous for. We would return happily.

This was a sweet, roomy apartment. I loved the sun porch overlooking the neighbor’s tile roof. Lots of eclectic decor, great location! Lovely breakfast served on the prettiest handmade pottery. And very comfy bed.

The Laurel is a gem in a perfect New Orleans setting. One of my favorite stays ever. The guest suite is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. Laura is a gracious, welcoming, attentive hostess. I loved walking to Bayou St. John and being just a few blocks from the gorgeous live oaks in City Park with its Sculpture Garden, coffee and beignet, Art Museum. And there are several great restaurants in easy walking distance. A perfect perch for enjoying the best of New Orleans.

Laura is a great host, the house is full of character, it’s walking distance to restaurants and City Park/museum, and the neighborhood is full of beautiful architecture.

Lovely house. Very comfortable bed. Lovely sitting sunroom attached to bedroom. Convenient to buses or trams for getting to French Quarter. Breakfast is Continental, but plentiful, great coffee!

Perfectly suited our needs! Communication with the host remained seamless and efficient, even while coordinating details on behalf of family members. Every interaction was met with promptness and kindness, making the entire process stress free. This rental is a top choice for anyone seeking a beautiful space and welcoming host.

Host knocked herself out to accommodate the two of us. Space was large and temp controlled, including full private bathroom. Tea and coffee could be prepared in the room.

Such a great location! The host had everything we needed in our suite.

It was just as described. Very clean and quiet place to stay in NOLA.

Laura was an amazing hostess! She was kind and attentive to me and my husband at all times. We loved her home, breakfast was great, she even offered to make eggs for us along with all the wonderful things she already offered. It was a beautiful and quiet neighborhood. We would recommend her place to friends and family. Mariam and Brad

The host was wonderful and had lots of suggestions for local spots. She was also very flexible with check out times. We will definitely come back again!

This experience was MAGICAL! My son and I traveled to New Orleans for his 30th birthday. We knew we wanted to spend time in the French Quarter and also stay in a charming neighborhood that so encapsulates the mystery and wonder of New Orleans. At our owner-occupied B & B, our space had a private entrance with a sunroom, bedroom, and bathroom. Imagine an oversized beautiful hotel room. I slept in the sunroom which had a very comfortable pull-out sofa. My son had the bedroom (his birthday) and it felt like we each had our own little areas. The property is gorgeous and in easy walking distance of local establishments. Enjoy the views of the neighborhood while you walk! The house and gardens are a marvel, and our hostess was perfection - the right amount of guidance while also allowing us privacy. We loved her! We will definitely be back and we highly recommend this gem. (Photo of my son and me in City Park by The Laurel Bed and Breakfast)

breakfast was nice; they had fresh bananas and warm croissants. anything else we wanted we could have got if we had asked. the hosts were very kind, easy to talk to (i find myself to be an awkward person) and very helpful. she recommended to us some cool places to eat and experience. her home is very nice, full of different pieces of art and just overall a beautiful sight to see.

Great accommodations. Host was very helpful in navigating New Orleans. Very nice neighborhood with nice garden area for relaxing in the evening with a glass of wine and coffee .

A lovely 100 year old home in a quiet, tree lined section of Mid-City with a separate entrance, separate sitting room with lots of windows, a very clean bathroom and comfortable bed. Great place to stay and really nicely located for Jazz Fest or activities in City Park or on Bayou St. John. Friendly host. Highly recommnded,

My sister and I stayed here for three nights and were overjoyed at our space, and especially at the hospitality from Laura. This is a substantial home in an absolutely beautiful walk friendly neighborhood. We walked to Cedar Park two days in a row to enjoy the sculpture garden and the art museum. We walked daily in the neighborhood googling at all the different homes with their beautiful façades and gardens. Laura prepared a lovely continental breakfast for us each morning with French press, coffee, local croissants, and muffins, yogurt and fruit. That coffee was so good. I did yoga in the front courtyard in the afternoons and felt like I was at a fancy spa and resort. Two big thumbs up for this place.

Very cool and comfortable place to stay for our week trip to New Orleans. Would stay here again.

Beautiful and property in a great location. Host has been exceptionally kind and informative. Looking forward to coming back!

As advertised

Laura and Elliott were wonderful house great location quiet bed was really comfortable. Will definitely stay again.

Pleasant stay in this one suite B&B in a quiet home. Operating for nearly 30 years, Laura knows the city and how to take care of guests.

A nice location just off Bayou St. John on the fringe of the Mid-City section of New Orleans. Quiet neighborhood, pretty apartment, safe street parking. Our hosts were friendly and personable. No hesitation about recommending this B & B to anyone visiting.

This is a great bed and breakfast in a beautiful home with a lovely host. We hope to be back.

We arrived and Laura had everything ready for us, a great breakfast of warm muffins and croissants, yogurt, juice, and coffee. The house is super cute and the area we had was perfect. We had our own entrance so as not to bother anyone else. We had an issue with our check out days plans and she was very accommodating! If we are in town again we will for sure stay here.

Our stay at the Laurel Bed and Breakfast was wonderful. From the moment we arrived, Laura was a kind and lovely host. Despite our late arrival, she stayed up to greet us, ensuring we were comfortable and familiar with the space — she gave us a tour and a helpful list of neighborhood spots. Throughout our stay, Laura struck the perfect balance of being available to answer questions while giving us plenty of privacy to enjoy our time. The accommodations were spacious and comfortable for two people — you have plenty of room to lounge, rest and get ready. The only minor suggestion we would make is a potential upgrade of the pillows for an even more restful night’s sleep. This isn’t a deal breaker however and everything else was truly fabulous, and we would happily stay here again! Thank you, Laura, for a wonderful visit! We’ll definitely be keeping this on our list for future trips to New Orleans.

We thoroughly enjoyed our 3-night stay! Our host was very accommodating. We enjoyed our conversations with Laura, our hostess. She was very interesting and informative. She offered some good suggestions on restaurants in the area. We really liked the Sante Fe restaurant. The food was excellent, very fresh. The location of the property was perfect. Many facilities are in walking distance, including the city park which we visited several times. In addition we found the street car transportation to be conveniently located. We used it to go to the French Quarter which is just a few miles away. We liked staying in a quiet neighborhood which this location provided. It will definitely be our go to if and when we visit the Big Easy again!!

It was wonderful! Clean and nice....great location and we would stay again.

The home and the apartment are beautiful. The hostess, Laura, and her household were welcoming and friendly. I would recommend this host to my friends and family.

We stayed here to be close to our son’s family. This Bed and Breakfast worked out great.
