By Jerry Walker


A large number of travelers will need somewhere to stay for the night when they are on business trips or family breaks. Some people will opt to stay in hotels which are to be found in most towns and cities across the globe. Another option that is available is to locate New Orleans bed and breakfasts and it is advisable to do a little homework before you book.

New Orleans is a very popular city and is visited by people from around the world due to its culture, food and great nightlife. There are many bed and breakfast establishments to choose from to suit all tastes. These establishments are smaller than hotels and they are usually located in popular areas of the city.

Before you book any accommodation it is useful to do a little research on the web and in guide books for the city. Most b and b establishments will cater for family groups, the business traveler and they are also child friendly. Most will have disabled access and it is worth checking with them if you have any special needs such as a room on the ground floor.

The prices of rooms will vary and is influenced by the location of the guest house and its facilities. A double room for a night will be priced around 150 dollars which includes your choice of American or continental breakfast. Some guest houses will offer lunch and evening meals and these will be added to your final bill. Many rooms have an en suite bathroom along with wifi, small fridges and hot drinks making facilities.

One of the advantages of staying in a bed and breakfast is the personal service you get from the proprietors. Some of the larger establishments may have a drinks bar serving alcoholic and soft drinks in the evening. Other services may include free parking, a laundry service and free daily newspapers and magazines are frequently available.

Before you decide on a guest house and make a reservation it is a good idea to price up other accommodation in the area. Money can usually be saved and discounts may be offered if you make an advance reservation. If you are going to be staying longer than one night then a room discount may be available after some negotiation with the owners.

When you need to make payment there are various options available and you can select the one that suits your needs. When you make a reservation on the net you can pay using the usual online payment methods or pay a small deposit and the balance later. If you do not book a room and turn up you can pay up front or when you check out. Many b and b owners will take a damage deposit from a credit card on check in and refund the money when you leave.

When you arrive at the guest house you should speak with the owners and get prices for extra items that they offer. It is a good idea to know what is included in your room price and what you will be billed for. When you check out it is advisable to keep your receipts and get a contact name in case you need to make any future bookings.
