Our second visit to Houmas house was fabulous. We spent the night and had a fabulous dinner at the Carriage House. The food is excellent. The grounds were decorated beautifully for Christmas. It is a great place to spend time with friends. Love it!

Can't recommend it enough!

The Inn is a great place and we thought it looked lovely on the website -- but it exceeded all our expectations when we actually stayed: beautiful decor, fantastic setting, spotlessly clean and the food on site is great too. To say nothing of the house tour, bar, friendly and helpful people working there... a really fantastic place to stay

Unique and Lovely Stay

What a treat! This is a place you come back to and just enjoy the grounds. Rooms are spacious and clean with beautiful landscaping surrounding and a quick walk to the on-site restaurants, gardens, and museums. Free breakfast and no pet fees were a huge plus! Would recommend trying to stay in a room that is not on River Rd if street noise bothers you. The road is quite busy and you can hear vehicles driving by at all hours.

Beautiful Place

The grounds are stunning. The staff is very very friendly. The food was amazing. The only reason I gave it four stars was because there was zero water pressure in our room. The walls were thin and we could hear quite a bit from our neighbors. Other than that, we couldn’t have been happier.

Loved the room. The only problem is that our room was right next to the road. Traffic started at 5 am. It is their cheapest room but to much money for the noise so early in the morning.

It had beautiful gardens. The room initially did not have a shower cap. I asked for one at the desk and was told they did not have any. Upon leaving I found a cap. The food was very good. One restaurant only had a 5 course dinner option. My spouse and I shared one dinner since I weigh 82 lbs. and fill up very quickly. I also forgot my luggage and they could not offer me even a tooth brush. .

Transportés dans le monde de Scarlett

Les petits cottage sont plein de charmes. La décoration vous ramène dans une autre époque. De plus vous avez tout loisir de déambuler dans les jardins extraordinaires de Houmas house qui sont éclairés la nuit et de ce fait magique. Vous pouvez également faire appel à une voiturette qui vous conduira volontiers au cottage ou au restaurant. Par contre attention !! Si vous avez un cottage au bord de la route par exemple 1 ou 2. Vous serez très gêné par la circulation

Magnifique mais un peu cher quand même

Le lieu est superbe avec les jardins les quelques animaux, les cottages grands et confortables. Côté négatif: dès qu'on sort, autour, on voit les usines et on entend la route c'est un peu surprenant! L'isolation des murs est assez faible, on avait des gens alcoolisés à côté, il a fallu allez leur dire de faire moins de bruit car on entendait tout. Dernier point, je pensais qu'on pourrait visiter la maison, mais c'est 35$ de plus par personne et 25$ pour le musée amérindien. Quand on paye déjà 400$ pour la chambre, ça pourrait être inclu.

Everything was beautiful and peaceful. The bed was comfortable and the shower and soaking tub were so nice. The grounds were gorgeous. Breakfast buffet at Dixie cafe was delicious and the view out the huge windows enjoyable. The museum was great. Dinner at the Carriage House was also special. People were friendly and helpful. No crowds, quiet and serene.
