I wish I had read a few of these reviews from 2007, because I had a similar experience...only 2 years later! The website displays amazing pictures and great reviews, but rest assured, they are all at least 4 years old. The current owner has not updated the website pictures or information, and I know why. The rooms clearly haven't been... more

I've traveled to New Orleans three times in the last year for work and stayed at the McKendrick-Breaux House each time. In the past, I've stayed at the big chain hotels downtown, but finally decided to try something new. I'm glad I did. This B & B is conveniently located in the Garden District around the corner from the convention... more

I have never been to New Orleans before so when we planned our 20 year college reunion not only was I excited about seeing old friends, but exploring a new city was high on my list. This was my first stay at a B&B and it far surpassed my expectations. The McKendrick Breaux house reflects the history and culture of... more

I want to go back now. Truth is, I didn't want to leave. The McKendrick-Breaux House is a perfect place to stay...great location, the owners (attentive, genuine, interesting, knowledgeable, warm) are excellent hosts, the home is clean and truly lovely, the other guests in the home were clearly enjoying their stay which created a wonderful atmosphere, the food was top-notch... more

The McKendrick-Breaux House oozes history, from the formal foyer to the courtyard, the stairways, the unusual stacks of antiquities and yearbooks, right down to the proprietor, one Brett Ruth, who will out-Google even Google as a source of information. Brett and his wife, co-owner Rachel Ruth, are plugged in to the local scene, and will steer you to the newest... more

Ironically for a trip to New Orleans perhaps, I'm returning more relaxed and better rested than I've been in years. Enjoyed the elegant, old New Orleans vibe. Spent several breakfasts on the porch in the garden, great coffee, amazing scones (one day cherry, almond, chocolate; another coconut lime!), eggs and sausage also excellent. Loved the nearby shops and gelateria on... more

It's a fun, romantic place to stay! We really enjoyed our stay at this charming hb. The garden district is a great neighborhood for walking, coffee, and eclectic shopping. More authentic New Orleans than the French Quarter, but only 10 minutes away by cab ( or streetcar). Very quiet at night - we slept well. The owners are great -... more

I just wanted to echo what others have said about the McKendrick Breaux House. We stayed for 6 nights and had a lovely experience. The hosts, Brett and Rachel, seemed to be born to run a B&B. They were very accomodating, ALWAYS available to help with any request. They made us feel extremely welcome and just like family. They create... more

Located in the Garden District and an easy walk to downtown OR uptown, the McKendrick-Breaux house was perfect for us. My partner and I were in town working on a grass roots video project in Central City and coming back HOME to the McK-B Bed & Breakfast was like a soothing tonic. The bathrooms are exquisite - with big fluffy... more

Coming from chilly Philadelphia, we couldn't have received a warmer welcome from hosts Brett and Rachel. The house is grand, and the rooms my son and I stayed in (for a visit to Tulane) were charming without being too sweet, with a nice view of downtown at night. The bathroom was lovely, with thick towels and plenty of room for... more
