September 2024

Hello! 
We hope you’ve had a wonderful summer, perhaps taken some trips and hopefully made some amazing memories! If you came through New Orleans and stayed at one of our wonderful bed and breakfast inns, we’re always so happy to see and host you, and if not - well, there are plenty of reasons to start looking for your next NOLA adventure! 
The city’s collective excitement grows with the beginning of the football season, of course, and you’re always welcome in the Superdome to cheer on our Saints - all of our properties are within easy reach of the stadium and they’re a perfect base for exploring before or after the game. 
We’ll also soon be into October, and you know what that means…the Po-Boy Festival. Oh, and the small matter of Halloween! New Orleans has a reputation for being one of the spookiest cities in America, so there’s no better place to celebrate. Best of all, the Halloween celebrations last all month long, so there’s no bad time to be here!
As always, here are a few events coming up that we think are worth a trip - go to the website www.bbnola.com to book your rooms now, and be sure to treat yourself by visiting very soon!
