Circa 1774. In the Historic District near Waterfront Park and the harbor, this elegant inn was a series of 1860s warehouses before refurbishing into distinctive lodgings. Romantic guest bedrooms feature canopy or sleigh beds, open beam ceilings, reproduction wallpaper, antiques, original artwork, newspaper delivery and two-line telephones with data port. Spacious suites boast working fireplaces, travertine marble baths with whirlpool tubs and separate showers. Indulge in a traditional Southern breakfast buffet complete with grits. Enjoy afternoon wine and cheese in the lobby and after-dinner cordials or milk and cookies. Borrow a bike to tour the scenic French Quarter. The Rooftop Terrace offers panoramic views. A concierge will arrange carriage rides, tours or reservations.
