Five Continents Bed and Breakfast – New Orleans

I am a walker so the short walks to most of my destination was a plus. There also was a bus stop right across the street for across town touring. Peter, the innkeeper, was affable and helpful and made very tasty breakfasts.

LOVED this B&B!! Great service, ambience, and comfort. The view from the balcany wasn't the greatest, but inside there was everything you would want.

We had a fantastic time, walking most times along Esplanade, to all that we wanted to see. We had tips and recommendations from the owners, relating to travel and eating out. It was a very comfortable stay and the breakfast was absolutely delightful.

The stay was awesome. Away from the noise and crowd but close enough to catch a cab to go down the street 10 blocks to everything. Thanks Peter! Enjoyed it!

This B&B was my first experience with a B&B. From the 1st encounter with Peter & Walter the owners, they made us feel comfortable & safe. The Asian Room was clean, spacious & quiet. (shower was interesting but it is what it is, an older home & looks like it had to be "fit in" somewhere) We were given a set keys so we could come & go as we please & a […] gate button for the security gate so we could park our car safely in the driveway. We slept great in the quiet room(could not even tell anyone else was there), the sheets were very soft & my daughter slept in the pull out couch bed in the sitting room. There were plenty of blankets & we could adjust the temperature ourselves with the window A/C units in the room. Bathrobes were available, even a cork screw & wine glasses if needed & small fridge. The best part was the comfortable dining room with a gourmet breakfast cooked by Peter. So delicious & all included. There was even free Wi-fi if needed. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this original place. We were skeptical about the neighborhood at first but it is NOLA after all. We drove to the FrenchQuarter but it is within walking distance. We were able to find free parking on the streets of NOLA. I highly recommend this B&B for a great little getaway. Thank You Peter & Walter! Lesa meira

This was our first stay in a bed and breakfast and it was great. The rooms were reasonably priced for their size and the breakfast that Peter prepared every morning was excellent! We took cabs to the french quarter most of the time for about $10, but the walk wouldn't have been terrible. Would definitely recommend it to others!

We were there for such a short time that it is hard to say. It was a lovely house, turned B&B, and our host was very warm and accommodating. The breakfast was just amazing - he went to so much trouble and our fellow guests were very courteous and entertaining. I just wish we could have stayed longer. If there was one fault, it would be the lack of an […] elevator. Otherwise, a most pleasant experience in a wonderful city. Lesa meira

We enjoyed our stay. The owner was pleasant, and helpful answering our questions about getting around in New Orleans. The breakfasts were varied and tasty; the owner remembered who drank what beverage in the morning (decaf, or tea, etc.). Our room was spacious and nicely decorated. There is also a sweet, docile dog available for petting and playing […] ! Lesa meira

The host, Peter, was very genial and helpful. It's a beautifully-maintained home, very comfortable. It was located close to my friend's homes and locations that I wanted to visit.

B&B is in a well-maintained grand older home. No central air but window air conditioners and ceiling fans made it quite comfortable. It is located within reasonable walking distance of the French Quarter.

My wife and I stayed at this B&B for two nights following our wedding. We were a bit concerned by the location at first. While the location is convenient for touring New Orleans, just a block away are run down buildings covered with graffiti. Many homeless people were hanging around beneath the overpass, and other people were wandering around with threatening […] scowls on their faces. When I was leaving the B&B during the day to head toward the interstate, I noticed a woman wearing high heels and denim shorts cut short enough to reveal the bottoms of her butt cheeks leaning into the passenger side window of a nice new Dodge Charger which was stopped at the side of the street. Or course this is New Orleans, and many areas around N.O. are like that. It was comforting that there was a gated parking area. We stayed in the Asian suite. The room was clean and nicely decorated. The bed was big and comfy. However it is obvious that the building is old. The location of light switches makes no logical sense, and many of them don't work. It took us about 5 min to find the bathroom light switch. The sink is located in the living room area which is also odd. I had some trouble unlocking the back door of the room and the front door of the B&B house. Of course it didn't help that I was given 4 different keys, and none of them were labeled. The breakfast was excellent, and the host/chef was kind and helpful. Overall the experience was good despite the quirky room and somewhat shady area. Lesa meira

Gracious hosts. Great rooms. Great complimentary breakfast. Great FREE gated parking--you get your own gate remote. The bed was a traditional inner spring mattress, but both my husband and I slept comfortably on the queen-sized bed even though we're used to a king-sized memory foam mattress. Our friend slept comfortably on the fold out sofa bed. We […] were there 5 nights and woke up every morning feeling refreshed, ready for a day of fun in NOLA! We stayed in the Asian Suite which is upstairs. Recommended attractions: Natchez steamboat tour, Oak Alley plantation (an hour's drive away), the Aquarium, St. Louis Cathedral & Jackson Square, Cajun Encounters swamp tour (they picked us up from the B&B), beignets at Cafe du Monde, the Riverfront Cafe on Decatur Street, New Orleans Museum of Art, and shopping in the French Quarter and at the French Market. Even after 5 full days, we still didn't have enough time to do everything! We plan to go back and we plan to stay again at the 5 Continents! Lesa meira

We had a very enjoyable stay in the Asian suite. The daily breakfasts were delicious, our room was very nice and the included gated parking was wonderful.

This B&B was simply wonderful! It was very quiet in a neighborhood NE of the Quarter (though I-10 provided us with nightly sirens of EMT's on the way to Tulane Med Cntr). When you walk through the door you just stepped back in time. Beautifully decorated lower level. We had the "Asian Suite" which was the perfect size for my wife and I. The bathroom […] is a bit...uhhh...cozy, but no need to spend an inordinate amount of time in there anyway! Our host, Peter, was amazing. An extremely attentive and helpful man, without being intrusive. Breakfast was fantastic, eggs your way, juice, coffee, fresh fruit, etc. It was delicious. NOT recommended for families, as the artifacts would not be considered "kid-friendly." The room was beautifully appointed and Peter and his sidekick, Akko, made sure the mini-fridge was stocked with sodas and water and sweet tea. About a 1/4 mile walk to the Quarter and a short cab ride to the CBD. Stay at the 5 Continents and rest assured you will have the time of your life in the Big Easy (Also, we were there a week before Mardi Gras, and the neighbors along Esplanade "dressed" their houses for the occasion. What an extra added treat!) Lesa meira

It's just outside the French quarter, maybe 8 blocks to the middle of Bourbon St. but its safe to walk. Very clean, excellent breakfast, safe off street parking. I walked or took a taxi everywhere. Taxi to Bourbon St. is $7. Some hotels in the Quarter charge $30 or $40 a day for parking so be aware of that. Would definitely stay there again.

I just learned this after I stayed there for two days. Peter, the new owner, served the same good breakfast, and is also knowledgeable in local area , so I just assumed he is the one every other reviewer talked about. Then on the third day morning during breakfast, he told me he has just bought this house two months ago. Well, it is such a smooth transition […] that we don't even notice it! Lesa meira

I wasn't really looking for a WHOLE lot since we would be out most of the time exploring NOLA. We wanted a comfortable place to stay that would give us a nice breakfast. Five Continents delivered on all accounts. Walter & Peter were gracious hosts, the house is beautiful, and the food was excellent. I would HIGHLY recommend a stay here...

The neighborhood looks a little sketchy at first site but felt safe walking back at night. Not too bad of a walk to Bourbon Street and the French Quarter. It's a good way to walk off the extra calories from all the good food and drinks. The owner was very nice and helpful with suggestions on where to eat. He also made an excellent breakfast. Stayed […] in the cottage was was really nice. It's not very big but has a nice patio and a good working AC. Shower water pressure is very low which is pretty much the only negative that I can think about. Otherwise, really good place to stay. Lesa meira

Beautifully restored building edge of French Quarter, extremely considerate knowledgable host, very clean and well equipped room with refrigerator and drinks. Room -- really two rooms -- was extremely quiet and comfortable. . Homemade hot breakfast delicious, and advice of host of what to see and what to avoid very helpful. I didn't have a car or much […] time, so I took cabs. Cab company recommended by host sent cabs within minutes; fare to downtown about $10 with tip. Lesa meira

Jess was a wonderful host and we were very comfortable in his lovely home. The breakfast every morning was delicious. The house is approximately a 20 minute walk from the popular tourist area the French Quarter so you do need to catch a taxi at night but it only costs around $7. Would definitely recommend this accommodation.

This is a gem of a place. Jess, the proprietor, is a wealth of information about the best restaurants to go to and things to do in the city, not to mention he is a fabulous cook. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would definitely stay here again. What a bargain!!

This B&B is great, the host Peter was very service minded and kind. The house was breathtaking, if you like older houses with nice furniture in it this is the one. The breakfast was really great and there was parking space. It is 20 mins safe walk from French quarter to the house and it did not feel unsafe to walk. A taxi from the riverboat to the house […] was only 8 dollars. Lesa meira

Vi hade läst recensioner om att det skulle vara bra men det var bättre! För det första så var läget helt perfekt med lugnt område men promenadavstånd till French Quarters. Sedan fick vi egen svit och balkong att sitta ute på. Men det bästa var nog frukosten. Vi fick en meny att välja hur vi ville ha äggen tillagade. Värden som också var kock i den franska […] skolan lagade fantastiska rätter. Vilken hollandaisesås!! tillsammans med pocherade ägg och räkor och kronärtskocka....mm underbart! Värden var så otroligt tillmötesgående, gav tips om allt möjligt. Inredningen i huset var så tjusig och allt var fräscht och rent.Kan verkligen varmt rekommendera detta hotell. Thank you Peter!!

Five Continents is gevestigd in een mooi opgeknapt mansion. De inrichting is helemaal in de oude stijl. Wij waren een van de eerste gasten van de nieuwe eigenaar. De verzorging, met name het ontbijt, was erg goed: specifieke wensen konden ingevuld worden. Probeer de gekruide omelet met spek: erg lekker! De eigenaar was verder ook erg behulpzaam bij […] het bezoeken van bezienswaardigheden. Het B&B ligt op een stukje lopen van French Quarter, dit is heel goed te doen. Voordeel is dat je 's nachts geen last hebt van lawaai e.d. Wij hadden de Eurasian suite. Deze is lekker ruim (bestaat eigenlijk uit twee kamers met een aparte badkamer). De kamer was prachtig gedecoreerd. In de koelkast staat frisdrank die je gratis mag gebruiken. Al met al hadden we een heel prettig verblijf en we kunnen Five Continents dan ook van harte aanbevelen.

I have only great sings to say about this place. So worth the price I paid. The new owner are really friendly and helpful. Only a 5 minute cabride or a nice healthy walk from the French quarter. Breakfast excellent. The rooms are one of a kind. Beautifully decorated. I'll come back again for sure.
