My fiancee and I have stayed at the Banana Courtyard twice in the last year. The inn keepers, Hugh and Mary, are amazing and each have a wealth of local information that can guide your trip to make it an amazing one. The rooms vary greatly - we've stayed in the Hexagon and Balcony rooms, thus far - both had... More

Four of us visited from London and absolutely loved it! Loved the characterful decor and all of the antiques, Mary walked us along to help us get our bearings, and Stanley picking us up from the airport was a massive help. Found the locaction really good to get around. Breakfast was tasty and abundant! All of the staff were very... More

Have been to Banana Courtyard a number of times and would not consider staying anyplace else. Mary and Hugh have become great friends and my husband and daughter and I so at home when we are there. Staff is always helpful and in great spirits. I cannot leave out Stanley and "Mrs Stanley" from Lanes Cab who pick us up... More

I found this B&B online by typing in "haunted New Orleans bed and breakfast" because I was traveling to NOLA with the purpose of researching the local voodoo, paranormal, and magical culture of the city for a novel I am writing. I wanted to feel like I was in a real New Orleans house, and I wanted to be inspired... More

We are a Couple in our mid-twenties. First time to NOLA and first time staying at a B&B. We stayed in the Hexagon room which was large and beautiful with a gigantic bathroom! The bed was super comfortable. The whole trip was amazing and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Banana Courtyard! Thank you for the hospitality!

Not being able to get hotel rooms in NOLA due to NCAA Basketball Finals, we used internet and found the Banana Courtyard. What a great find! We were 10 people and had 5 rooms, from quite small to very large. A charming mansion dating back to 1850s and furnished in antiques and vintage items. Our host and hostess, Hugh and... More

We made a family vacation trip to New Orleans in March, and stayed at the 1870 Banana Courtyard B & B--we occupied most of the bedrooms in the main house. It could not have been better. Wonderful innkeepers and support staff, charming period decor, and an excellent Continental breakfast--which changed each day. Many helpful suggestions were given to us; the... More

We stayed four nights and had a great time in New Orleans. There were no rooms available for all four nights when I booked, so Hugh put us in the balcony room the first night and it was fantastic! The next day, the staff moved our bags to Madame's Steamboat room in the main part of the house. It had... More

My daughter and i stayed in the Mardi Gras Room, which was comfortable enough. The owners of the Banana Courtyard are friendly and helpful, and Mary walks each new guest to Bourbon Street.The downstairs and breakfast room are filled with interesting collectables and Art. The continental breakfast is ample, but the quality of the breads and pastries isn't great- not... More
