By Sandra Scott


When trying to find some suitable accommodation for an overnight stay when taking a short break, or for a business trip, there are a few choices available to you. Many people now choose to stay in family owned guest houses and they are becoming more popular. When you are trying to find the best bed and breakfast in New Orleans a little research is required.

There are many family run guest houses in the city of New Orleans that have been in operating for years. This city attracts large numbers of visitors annually due to its great atmosphere and culture. The bed and breakfasts that are available range from small converted houses to a purpose built guest houses. These establishments will suit many different tastes and are generally situated close to bars, restaurants and other attractions.

When looking for a place to stay, it is advisable to look in the local guide books or have a look at some of the available web sites. A lot of the establishments advertised will cater for business travelers, individuals and families. The majority will have disabled access and special assistance is available from the operators of the guest houses.

A double room for one night will cost you approximately 150 dollars which includes your choice of breakfast. Many places offer a lunchtime menu and evening meal for a small charge and this is useful for families. Most rooms will have internet access, small fridges containing soft drinks and snacks and hot drinks making facilities.

One of the benefits of staying in a bed and breakfast is that you get a very personal service from the owners as opposed to having to deal with corporate hotel staff. Some larger guest houses often boast a drinks bar serving refreshments in the evening. Free daily newspapers are sometimes offered with breakfast and room service is usually available to guests.

When you are browsing web sites to locate your overnight accommodation you should always research as many guest houses in the neighborhood and make room price comparisons. Money can often be saved by making advance reservations rather than turning up and checking in. If you plan to stay longer than one night, a discount may sometimes be offered by the owners depending on their policy.

After booking a room you should receive a confirmation email or letter and you may need to show this on check in. When making advance payments it is preferable to use a credit card as it will usually be covered by insurance and you can trace the payment if there are problems. A lot of the establishments will accept a cash payment for your room and you should check this before you book.

On arrival, and whilst checking in, it is advisable to ask for the house price lists. This will allow you to check which items are included as part of your booking and which are billed as extras. When you check out, retain all receipts and get the owners name and email address, which will be useful for further bookings.
