What can I add to the accolades from others? Casa Pelican is a lovely place to stay in a fun and unique neighborhood. It's our new favorite area in New Orleans: quiet, safe, good places to eat and drink, and just a 5-minute ferry ride from the French Quarter. Our room was clean and comfortable, and Karen is a great host and a spectacular cook. Breakfast was delicious. She even packed up some leftovers for us to eat on our drive home! We highly recommend Karen and Casa Pelican.
