What a great place to stay. Close to everything via streetcar and main streets if inclined to drive around. Snacks and continental breakfast were good and very relaxing to sit on porch in morning with paper and coffee and pastry. Joe and Bebe can recommend and arrange everything for you. They suggested restaurants, tours, sights for us and were right every time. Location was terrific and atmosphere was perfect. Our stay with them really added to our New Orleans experience. I will call them first when we return.

My husband and I got away for our much belated honeymoon (4 years) and anniversary. We had never been to New Orleans and couldn't have asked for a better location, B&B or hosts! Bebe and Joe were so informative and helpful with figuring out restaurants and places to go. Our room was really clean and comfortable and the breakfast even though it was a continental was more than expected and always delicious and fresh. Thanks for having us Bebe and Joe!

Avenue Inn B&B offers a perfect retreat in The Big Easy. It is convenient to visiting our son at Tulane, excellent dining options, shopping on Magazine Street, and offers the ideal spot for viewing Mardi Gras parades and the Rock & Roll Marathon (mile marker 3 and 6). Rooms are well appointed and comfortable, bathrooms are fully modernized and what you would expect of a top hotel, and breakfast offers many options sure to please guests of all ages. The owners are attentive and professional and work to ensure that guests' needs are met and that they will return to New Orleans and Avenue Inn B&B. We are return guests and will be coming back again!

My husband and I came for a romantic getaway, it was so beautiful! They even accommodated me with my gluten free diet. Joe and Bebe are so nice! They helped us with recommending restaurants, local attractions, and public transportation. We felt so safe! We will definitely come again!

We stayed at Avenue Inn for two nights. This was our first time in NO and the innkeeper was incredibly helpful as we planned what we should see. He also provided great recommendations for restaurants. The location, right on St. Charles Avenue in the Garden District, was perfect! Additionally, we though the price was great, especially since it included free breakfast and parking. We would definitely stay here again.

Great place to stay! Perfect location, good food, fascinating historic home,and great innkeepers and staff. Catch the trolley near the front door to go anywhere in town without taking your car. Many good restaurantsr lunch or dinner within walking distance and your hosts will help you choose a good one along with a recommendation on who to talk to when you get there. And, breakfast is outstanding, especially the coffee.

Looking for a smaller place to celebrate our honeymoon, my wife researched B&B's and was immediately attracted to the Avenue Inn. The Avenue Inn was exactly what we were looking for: older, charming and inviting and it far exceeded our expectations! Joe and Bebe made us feel immediately at home greeting us with warm cookies and taking the time to show us around. We had the queen suite on the top floor which is a "period room" redone and styled to its original glory and so cozy and comfortable we never wanted to leave. Joe was very helpful each day with our questions and making reservations for us and his quiet friendly manner made us feel welcome throughout our visit. Would we come back? In a heartbeat! We loved the Inn and being right on the streetcar line, it was easy to explore areas in all directions and we fell in love with New Orleans and looking forward to seeing Joe and Bebe again in the near future.

Prior to arriving at Avenue Inn Bed & Breakfast, My wife and I had stayed for several days at an upscale corporate hotel in the French Quarter in order for me to attend a work conference. Although the accommodations in the French Quarter were adequate, if I could re-plan my trip, I would have stayed every night at Avenue Inn. Upon our arrival, my wife and I were blown away by the Innkeepers’ hospitality. Joe and Bebe each took the time to ensure that we maximized our visit (our first) to New Orleans. They provided suggestions and their candid perspectives on restaurants, tours, walks, etc. Even though we had been in town for several days prior, I feel like our stay truly started once we arrived at Avenue Inn.
On top of the hospitality and expertise of Joe and Bebe, the accommodations were wonderful. The food was delicious; the rooms were beautifully decorated, comfortable, and quiet (I slept more soundly than I can recall in any hotel); and the sitting porch provided a peaceful place for us to enjoy breakfast each morning of our stay.
We will definitely stay at Avenue Inn again if and when we return to New Orleans. Additionally, anyone who mentions the city to me will have to hear about the remarkable time I had at the Inn, suggesting that all of their future stays should take place there. Thanks, Joe and Bebe.

When you think of travel you generally don’t think of home but at the Avenue B&B Joe and Bebe will change your view of travel. Set in an old mansion style home you will be treated to true southern hospitality. Joe meets you at the front door, checks you in and gives you a quick rundown of the rules of the home. Rules are a poor choice of words but unless your 18 and there for Mardi Gras and parting 24/7 you will find his “library hours” to be about mutual respect of everyone staying in the B&B and nothing more. Joe will provide you as much or as little information as you need. My wife and I were celebrating our 20th wedding anniversary and were thrilled with our experience. Joe’s recommendations of restaurants and tours surpassed all our expectations. There is a large courtyard and garden area in the front with tables and chairs to relax in as well as rocking chairs on the large porch. The best part is their location on St Charles St which is on the trolley car route. In addition there is an excellent seafood restaurant and pub just around the corner with a beignet and coffee shop next door.
The home itself is full of old world charm and character. A great continental breakfast starts the day with a snack tower to keep you going should you feel you need for a snack. We stayed on the 3rd floor room 18, which we highly recommend. The bed was comfortable and each room has a private bathroom for greater comfort. On a safety note the home has fire escapes, a monitored fire alarm and is sprinkler which is unheard in a heritage home.
We loved our vacation and we will return and when we do we will definitely stay with Joe and Bebe again.
