The Bienville House is located in the historic French Quarter of New Orleans, La. The intimate hotel, resplendent with intricate wrought iron balconies, sits one block from the Canal Place Shopping Center, six blocks from Riverwalk shopping and one half mile from the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center. The excitement of Bourbon Street and the antiques and art galleries of Royal Street are just three blocks away, as are Jackson Square and Café Du Monde, where beignets and chicory coffee are served 24-hours a day.

The lobby in the Bienville House resembles a French Quarter manor with its hand painted wall murals, gracious furnishings and stately old world charm. The Louisiana Heritage Café and School of Cooking serves a unique style of Creole cuisine with contemporary flair with dishes such as "Rajun Cajun" omelettes and seafood beignets with remoulade sauce. The school offers entertaining culinary lessons and teaches the secrets to preparing Cajun favorites. Meeting rooms accommodating up to 50 people are available. The historic hotel features four sundecks, access to a nearby fitness center and a romantic tropical flagstone courtyard and pool.

Guestrooms at the Bienville House feature designer toiletries, triple sheeted beds and down pillows. Select rooms feature breathtaking views of the Mississippi River. Coffeemakers are provided.

A jazz parade, with two shows nightly Wednesday through Saturday, runs up and down Decatur Street, directly in front of the hotel.
