We loved staying at Beau Sejour and would definitely do so again. The house is magnificent and very well kept. The description and the photos in the website are very accurate. The rooms are ample and the living area is very comfortable. Kitchen area is great and it has a wonderful family room. The great hospitality offered by Kim and her husband to make you feel at home. Their personal touch and dedicated effort put in to make the guests feel at home is more than noticeable. The property is very well kept; it is clean, easily accesible to restaurants, French Quarter, stores, etc. Thak you Kim for making sure the house looked beautiful for the rehearsal dinner we offered for my son's wedding. This was our home away from home.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, people with disabilities, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, girls getaway, sightseeing.

What a fantastic way to experience New Orleans. 12 friends descended upon the city and Beau Sejour was a perfect way to house everyone -- super spacious and comfortable. The weather didn't cooperate for most of our stay, so we didn't get to spend much time by the pool and on the balcony, but the covered front porch was a popular spot. We cooked a huge celebration dinner one night and I think there were 14 of us around the dining room table, complete with tablecloth. The owners were responsive to our needs and questions. Great central location -- we would would stay here again in a heartbeat.Recommended for: Age 55+, tourists without a car, families with teenagers, girls getaway, sightseeing.

Our large family, (25 of us including 10 grandchildren) had a great week in this beautiful home that seemed to be meant for us. We were in New Orleans for our son's wedding. We loved, loved, loved the home.... the kids enjoyed the pool - we grilled poolside. We walked to the great neighborhood restaurants as well as the St. Charles trolley line to go to the Quarter. We had more than enough room in the home. It is described as 7 bedrooms, but two of them are suites with an additional bedroom. As a history buff, I can not tell you how much I enjoyed the high ceilings, stained glass and beautiful woodwork and hardwood floors - I felt like I had stepped back in time into another era. Thank you Kim & Gilles for letting us enjoy your magnificent home. Sincerely, a most appreciative Youngstown Ohio familyRecommended for: Adventure seekers, tourists without a car, families with teenagers, families with young children, sightseeing.
Owner response: Thank you for the great review... makes our day when our guests leave New Orleans happy and satisfied with Beau Sejour. Take care and hope to see you in the Big Easy sometime in the not too distant future.

So I booked this incredible house for a 15-person bachelor party from Austin, TX. After a very long all-day drive, we collectively walked in the front door and our jaws dropped. Let's just say the pics in this profile DO NOT DO IT JUSTICE - it's gorgeous, and way bigger than I thought it would be. When it says it sleeps 22, they mean it. The bedrooms are all huge, many of the 7.5(!) bathrooms are private, there's a great dining room and kitchen, a pool (which was a little too cold in January), and a nice grill which we took full advantage of. If you have a big group, this manse is simply perfect. And the price is really reasonable, and you'll know it the moment you walk in. And see a freakin harpsichord and winding staircase. Kim/owners were very straightforward and super easy to work with. Easy walks to local bars, great food, and the trolley. Can't say enough good things. Thanks! Bobby Nall Austin.

This home is so lovely and well appointed, Kim has thought of everything to make your stay so comfortable. This home is a great place for multiple families, room for all to gather and quite spaces to relax away from the crowd. Short walk to the trolley, multiple cafes and front porch and pool area allow you to enjoy the New Orleans away from the French Quarter. A wonderful Christmas was enjoyed by all, Thank You!Recommended for: Age 55+, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, girls getaway, sightseeing.

We arrived to meet a very accomodating Kim at ths house. We were all blown away by the size of the house. It is huge. Also there are 13 beds in the house, another surprise as we thought since there were 7 bedrooms we were looking to sleep in 7 beds. Amazing accomodations, all rooms have their own bathroom fully loaded with towels, shampoo, etc. Every room also has a TV with cable (a huge plus for us wanting to watch college football). The pool was quite refreshing and a great place to hang out during the down time. About a block over is a great oyster bar with one of the nicest oyster shuckers you will ever meet. We took the rail car to Camellia Grill just west of the home and cabbed it everywhere else ($4 a person down to bourbon). Very quiet home on a great street. Thanks again to Kim.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway.
Owner response: Merci! Our pleasure! Great times in the Big Easy! See you next time you decide to head our way!

We held a college mini-reunion here during Jazz Fest in May, 2011. It was a wonderful house -- nice to cool off in the pool after hot, dusty days. Lots of space for a gumbo night party, and easy to hit Pascal's Manale one block down. I wouldn't consider it walking distance to Tipitina's, but was proven wrong on a night when we could not find a cab at Tip's. The photos show how beautiful the house and furnishings are, but no one has mentioned the charming avant-garde touches -- absinthe spoons in the silverware drawer, bongo drums and a piano and an almost life size statue of St. Jude (fittingly the patron saint of lost causes) in the dining room. Walls are thick, towels plentiful. The only tiny negative was that we were given less keys than rooms, but that was a workable problem.Recommended for: Age 55+, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, girls getaway.

My family stayed here over Halloween weekend and had a truly wonderful time. The house is just gorgeous, the pictures don't even do it justice. Each room is decorated beautifully with wonderful attention to detail and the house is immaculately kept. There are several great places for groups to gather- from the kitchen, to the sitting room, to the front porch- there were 13 of us and we had more than enough space. The 7.5 bathrooms also make this a great place for a group to stay comfortably. The owners were wonderful and lovely to communicate with. The location is great- the best of Uptown is close by, with the French Quarter easily accessible by streetcar. The house is also right on the parade route, which would be perfect during Mardi Gras season. We hope to come back during the warmer months so we can use the pool! I highly recommend this property.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

Owner info
Year Purchased: 1993
About the owner: We are avid preservationists; renovating and rehabbing New Orleans properties for 20 years. We are always looking for those homes that have fallen into disrepair, but have good bones to work with. Our joy is finding that our work has breathed new life into these homes, our neighborhood and our community.
Why the Owner Chose Other New Orleans Properties:
This property had originally been a single family home that had been converted to a 7 unit rooming house in the 40's. A fire had put the finishing touches to it. We knew within minutes of seeing it that it could be a incredible property if restored to it's original detail. Just one in thousands of homes with beautiful architectural detail rescued in our very unique city.
The Unique Benefits at this Estate:
This property offers guests the opportunity to live like a native in a neighborhood that offers a slice of the true ambiance of New Orleans. With Pascal's Manale at the corner, the aroma of BBQ shrimp and the thought of a chilled oyster adds to the unforgettable Big Easy experience.
