situated in the heart of historical Faubourg Treme

Our History

Only two blocks from the French Quarter, Monrose Row is situated in the heart of historical Faubourg Treme. A melting pot of cultures, the Treme was home to infamous Storyville and Basin Street. The birthplace of Jazz and Dixieland music, the Faubourg still reflects the character that shaped it. Even today it is not uncommon to see an impromptu Second Line Parade and hear that inimitable sound that is New Orleans.

Part of a group of three, three story Greek Revival row houses, Monrose Row was begun in 1839 for Charles Monrose. Monrose , who had a bakery and residence on Bourbon Street until 1838, moved to the corner building, the first of his planned row, opening his business in 1839.

Later that same year, Monrose's creditors held public auction and he lost his new property to attorney Louis Janin. Janin immediately completed the row of three houses and sold each to separate owners.

 

 

 

One hundred and seventy years later, after meticulous restoration, awarded by the Historic District Landmarks Commission, Monrose Row is available for accommodations.

Being a small (only 4 suites) Bed and Breakfast allows us time to give attention to detail and the needs of our guest.

Whatever your plans, you will find that Monrose Row Bed and Breakfast provides an interesting, private, comfortable and convenient accommodation.

"I chose Monrose Row based on an online search and availability for our New Years Eve elopement weekend. Cindy is amazing. To say that we were impressed is an understatement. The rooms are comfortable, the decor is absolutely gorgeous, the meals were incredible. No detail was left unaddressed. This will be the only place we stay on return trips to NOLA."

"There are many B&B's in New Orleans, so it seemed like we were taking a chance when we booked this one which wasn't even listed on TripAdvisor, nor could we find any decent reviews. But its website was whimsical and charming, and the pictures on it are lovely. So we gave it a shot, and well I don't think we could have done better..."

"Our stay at this inn was magnificent. My fiancée and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The staff was warm, friendly and helpful, but not overly so. The room was immaculate. The combined ambiance of the history of the inn, the grounds, and the neighborhood, created an overall atmosphere that was both timely and timeless. Cindy won our hearts. Now there is no other option, the inn is now my home away from home when in NOLA.(Laissez les bon temps roulez!!)"

"If you are looking for the quintessential New Orleans experience with the sophisticated touch of the past, Monrose Row is the place to be. No other B & B in New Orleans hosts the architectural grace and charm as Monrose Row. Family owned and operated, I rate Monrose Row with five shinning bright stars!"

"This review is looooong overdue, I'm ashamed to say, as we actually stayed here in November 2015. It was also my first stay at a B&B and I have to say that Cindy raised the bar for all others. Now that I've stayed at other places over the last year, I can really compare. Monrose Row is the most stylish and tasteful place I've ever stayed at. The building has been rebuilt and styled with love and great attention to detail. Very inspiring. The place is also very clean. Cindy is a wonderful host and excellent cook, so we were looking forward to our creative, tasteful and healthy breakfast every morning."
“Best B&B ever!”
