Circa 1858. Gracing the Lower Garden District in an historic area near the French Quarter, Terrell House is a grand three-story Italianate stucco-over-brick antebellum mansion in New Orleans, Louisiana. Relax in elegance and comfort on a porch, in the den or double parlors with period English and American antiques. Air-conditioned guest bedrooms with generous upscale amenities in the main house and the adjacent carriage house look out or open onto the courtyard with lush gardens, fountains and shaded sitting areas. The carriage house is furnished with locally handcrafted cypress furniture. Linger over a satisfying breakfast that reflects warm southern hospitality before exploring the popular sites of the city.

Terrell House

Kristy Allmon

The house is gorgeously appointed with local art, antiques and fresh flowers. Linda and her staff deliver excellent customer service and southern hospitality. Nothing is too much trouble. The breakfast is homemade. Definitely no Eggo waffles and stale bagels. We stayed for three days and the meal was delicious & different everyday. Perfect for the travelers that want a quiet stay away from the French Quarter, but it two block walk to the historic streetcar line.

We travel back home to NO several times a year and have stayed in numerous favorite haunts-The Terrell House will be our destination from here on out. Lovely neighborhood - exceptional accomodations and unsurpassed breakfast. Off the stret parking, and the area I spend most of my time in - Magazine Street.
