Fodor's Expert Review 1896 O'Malley House
120 S. Pierce St., New Orleans, Louisiana, 70115, USA
Best suited for those seeking a less touristy New Orleans experience, this elegant B&B near the intersection of Canal Street and North Carrollton Avenue offers rooms furnished with antiques and equipped with heavy cypress doors, hardwood floors, and plush drapery at oversize windows. Some rooms include Jacuzzi tubs. Take the nearby Canal Street streetcar for a quick ride downtown, or hop in a cab and take Carrollton to its intersection with the river for a streetcar ride down St. Charles Avenue.
