“Amazing food, stunning building, excellent hospitality!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 May 2013

Me, my sister and my mom stayed at the O'Malley bed and breakfast and we were not disappointed. We were stunned at how beautiful it was, how much knowledge the staff and owners had of the areas and where to eat, very personable from housekeeping to Larry Watts the owner. I can't say enough of how pleased all three of... More

“Great NOLA B&B”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 May 2013 via mobile

My wife and I stayed at the O'Malley house when in New Orleans for our daughter's graduation. What a treat! We have stayed in many B&B's. This is without a doubt the finest. As many other reviewers have noted the location is excellent. The cleanliness is equal to a first rate hotel and the breakfasts are generous and delicious. A... More

“An Ideal Place to Stay During Jazz Fest”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 May 2013

I selected O'Malley's based on prior reviews, and was not disappointed. Our 4-night stay exceeded expectations and greatly surpassed stays in other New Orleans B&B's. Ideally located in Mid-City just off Canal, O'Malley's is a 30 minute, very pleasant walk, to the jazz fest fairgrounds; a 15 cab minute cab ride to the airport and a 10 minute trolly ride... More

“Excellent stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 May 2013

We stayed for the first weekend of JazzFest 2013, and it could not have been better. The house is beautiful and the rooms are extremely comfortable (and quiet). The breakfasts were excellent. I am planning on staying here again next year.

“"A wonderful experience"”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 April 2013

Travelling to New Orleans from the Bahamas for a short vacation was something Thalia & I were looking forward to for many weeks. If you want basic food, standard accommodation and hosts with very little time for you, then the O'Malley House is NOT for you! It is ideally located...local cafes/restaurants on the doorstep or a 10 minute trolley ride... More

“Comfortable and Close to Public Transportation”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 April 2013

I would stay again at the 1896 O'Malley House Bed and Breakfast when in New Orleans. The bedroom was comfortable, the breakfasts delicious, and the Innkeeper was very personable and full of information about New Orleans. The B&B is very close to public transportation, too.

“Can't get enough of 1896”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 April 2013

My spouse and I have frequented the O'Malley House on at least four occasions and have done so because once one has found the BEST NOLA has to offer in terms of hospitality, one does not waiver. Larry Watts (proprietor) is by far one of the most gracious hosts. Over the past four years, Larry has made arrangements for us... More

“Full of character”

We spent 4 nights here in April 2013. House is quite special, full of character and very well furnished. It is also calm and quiet with easy access to the French Quarter via the nearby street car. Rooms are spacious with the most comfortable beds ever. We received a warm welcome from our hosts Brent and Larry who went out... More

Thank you for your review. I do love the beds also, I just wish I had one in my room. Mine was lost in Katrina and I was not able to find the same type as we have in the guest rooms. :( Please think of us on your next visit to NOLA. More

“You should stay here:)”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 April 2013 via mobile

We stayed here in March of 2012. This is a delightful Bed & Breakfast. Larry & his staff pay attention to every detail. The house was very clean, and the bed pillows were so comfy that I wanted to steal them. The kitchen was stocked with local snacks, and beer which was nice after a long day of sight seeing.... More

“Wonderful place to stay”

My husband and I had a wonderful time visiting NOLA and staying at O'Malley's. It was relaxing coming back to the B&B in-between sightseeing/shopping all day and going out at night to enjoy the free wine in the patio before heading back out. Larry and Brent were great hosts and provided a wealth of information on the best places to... More
