My husband and I stayed at the Coccinelle for our one year anniversary. Since we live only an hour away from the city, I wanted to get away from the big hotel chains and tourist traps. This was our first time staying at a B&B and we were both blown away by our experience. We stayed in Felicitas' suite upstairs. The attention to detail was superb and Reg and Ron were perfect hosts. The rooms and bathrooms were beautiful, and the courtyard was the perfect quiet retreat from the craziness of the French Quarter. We ate breakfast at the table in the courtyard and we are convinced that you would have a hard time finding better breakfast anywhere in the city. Not to mention the yummy cookies that magically appeared in our rooms while we were out shopping!
The location is wonderful as well. Just a few blocks from the French Market and the Quarter as well as a short walk to Frenchman Street and the amazing jazz clubs there.
My sister in law and her husband rented the downstairs room the same weekend and loved it. We are already making plans to return for our 2yr anniversary next year. I can't imagine wanting to stay anywhere else in New Orleans.
