Chez Palmiers is the expression of its owners’ love for New Orleans and their desire to be part of this great city’s recovery.

Located in the historic Faubourg Marigny just two blocks from the French Quarter and four blocks from Frenchman Street (popular with the neighborhood’s locals), you’ll be within easy walking distance of many of the sites, restaurants, bars and clubs, and the characters and music that have made New Orleans famous. Public transportation is not far way, making it easy to explore other parts of the city as well.

Owner operators Schuyler Hoffman and David Peterson invite you to relax and enjoy your stay in New Orleans in their traditional Creole Cottage. Originally built in the late 1800’s, it was renovated in the mid 1990’s. What we have tried to create is a home, not just bedrooms for guests—it is, after all, our home. Furnishings are a mix of some of our favorite antiques and newer things—interesting pieces we find at yard sales and antique shops around the city. Each room contains personal photographs and artwork, and memorabilia and chatkas we’ve accumulated and carried around with us over the years. Everyone looking for a bed and breakfast looks for a place that fits their personality, a place they’ll be comfortable in for more than just sleeping each night. We hope you will find that place with us.

We invite you to spend your mornings, afternoons, and evenings relaxing on the deck—although we often find ourselves chatting with guests in the kitchen. Following a day of touring around the city, shopping in the French Quarter and on Magazine Street, visiting the famous Audubon Zoo and Aquarium, or after an evening of dining and nightlife, you can cool off outside before retiring to your private, air conditioned room and a good night’s sleep in one of our comfy queen-size beds.

For those not familiar with staying at a b&b, we are not a hotel. Although we live on the premises, we are not available 24/7. It’s a lot like staying at a friend’s home. Just as a friend lets you make your own bed—if you choose to—we leave it up to you. We ask our guests to reuse towels and washcloths during their stay, like they would at home, unless they’re here for six or seven days. For many of our guests, this is the enjoyment of staying in a b&b rather than a hotel: it’s like staying with friends.
