“So charming! Lived up to the hype”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 21, 2012

We had a lovely weekend at Chimes, thanks to Jill and the beautiful Garden District setting. She had great tips for us on the music scene, and Magazine Street options (Tipitina's, La Petite Grocery) are in walking distance. Looking forward to a return visit sometime in the future!

“This charming B & B was so lovely and inviting that I just can't wait to return.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed November 20, 2012 via mobile

I loved The Chimes. The environment is just so pleasant and restful. So much thought has been put into making sure that the guest are comfortable and happy. The hosts went out of their way to help with directions and information about restaurants, shops and siteseeing.I loved the room and the garden area. I can't wait until my next visit.

“Perfect!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 8, 2012

We stayed just one night in room 1 at the Chimes. It was a perfect room and location for 4 of us.
Jill and her husband are great, knowledgable hosts. We parked our cars and didn't need to drive at all. We walked to Magazine Street for dinner. There are plenty of choices there. We took at cab to and from Bourbon St.
The courtyard is beautiful. If we were there for a longer stay, I could see us having happy hour or our morning coffee there.
Our breakfast hit the spot. We enjoyed that before heading out for local cuisine.
We liked the quiet, community location, as this is a welcomed contrast to Bourbon St.
Should we be fortunate enough to visit New Orleans again, we will definitely stay at Chimes!

“Home away from home!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 8, 2012

I'm so glad I found the Chimes. It was cozy, clean and comfortable. Breakfast with the other guests was a great way to start the day. The fresh fruit and pastries also helped! Jill had good advice about places to see and where to eat. Great access to the bus and streetcar. I was there on my own and always felt safe in the neighborhood. If I am ever lucky enough to visit the beautiful city of New Orleans again, The Chimes will be my first stop! Jill was the perfect hostess and made me feel very welcome. I can't thank her enough!

“Great place to stay with friends”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 7, 2012

We recently stayed at The Chimes on my recommendation with two other couples. It couldn't have been better. We each had our room, yet we could gather in the courtyard for a nice glass of wine before going out for the evening. Perfect! Jill was the perfect host, and was always ready if we had a question. The breakfast was delicious every morning and we enjoyed the company.

The rooms were clean, inviting and very nice. We will stay there again!

Room Tip: We stayed in the carriage house which was great...the bath was a little on the small side, but Room...
