Bed and Breakfast Inns of North Americaake a step back in time and stay at The Elysian Guest House. We are only five short blocks from the Historical French Quarter but without the French Quarter Accommodation Prices! (New Orleans blocks are short and not like big cities blocks) At Elysian Guest House our mission is to give you another fond memory in a city full of memorable sights, tastes and treats. Thus we offer a renovated Victorian "double shotgun" New Orleans home. Location in historic neighborhood adjacent to famous French Quarter. Value priced king/queen suites and queen studios with full amenities. Delightful outdoor areas with hot tub, grill, dining and resting. Services detailed and scheduled to your needs and desires.

Walk three blocks to hip Frenchman Street - great restaurants, the hottest local jazz headliners, buy a coffee, a book or a tattoo. Or stay in, order out, get a movie at the office and forget all that worrisome Monday-Friday timed chaos. You are on a New Orleans schedule - time and care forgotten.

There are such a huge variety of entertainment and sweet spots shaded by the hugging limbs of our live oaks that you will be glad you are out of the noise and green-less streets of the French Quarter. Although Bourbon Street is just five short blocks away, when you come back to our house, you are in a real neighborhood, not a twelve block long shopping mall. You want to go there, not necessarily stay there. For your convenience, we have a supermarket and drug store right across the street.

The Elysian Guest House has very large and spacious Studios and Suites. We feature a large hot tub, lush gardens and landscape. Each room has high ceilings, original hardwood floors, oriental rugs, and antique and reproduction furniture. Each Studio or Suite has a private entrance and bath with a full, double or king size bed. The suites have either a futon or sofa beds for third or fourth guest.
