“A truly New Orleans experience and authentic neighborhood!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 June 2013

If you want to have an authentic New Orleans experience and feel at home while you do it, I strongly encourage you to spend a few days at the House of the Rising Sun in Algiers Point. It's only blocks away from the short ferry ride to the Downtown New Orleans and the French Quarter. My girlfriend and I had... More

“Third visit with old friends”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 June 2013

Our third stay at the House for JazzFest and it just gets better. Kevin and Wendy are wonderful hosts and it's become like a second home for us. The nearby Algiers ferry is an easy link to the Quarter and a pleasant way to travel. There was a cloud over the future of the service but it now looks like... More

“Honeymoon in NOLA”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 May 2013

My new wife and I stayed with Kevin for the first 3 days of our honeymoon trip to NOLA. We found him here, on TripAdvisor. What everyone says is true; very nice rooms, very comfortable. Kevin had great advice on where to eat, what to see, and was quite helpful in general. We'd definitely stay with them again.

My girlfriend and I (20s couple) stayed at House of the Rising sun the week before Jazz fest (apr 19 - 23) and really had a lovely time. Kevin was a fantastic host -- most knowledgable about the great places to eat and see music -- he recommended Frenchmen St for music, and it pretty much ended up being where... More

“Jazz Fest”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 May 2013

Discovered this great little B&B in Algiers Point. Didn't realize how close it was to everything. Neighborhood had lots of charm, even a British pub! Hosts were terrific, knowledgeable, and friendly. We were out and about each day until bedtime, but could have enjoyed ourselves with their books and music library. Lots of helpful tips on how to do Jazz... More

“all you need”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 May 2013

Lovely home in a very pretty area over the river from the mid city by free ferry. Kevin knows his music and is an easy going host. Breakfast at eight was a little early for us though. Fairly easy to get to.
