The Fleur De Lis Mansion is an absolute gem of a place, tucked right on the edge of the garden district and a mere 10 minute walk from the heart of the parades. We loved and appreciated the thoughtful touches around the property, such as the bag check in, the coffee and tea display in the kitchen, & the back yard lot as a whole. The hot tub setup is nestled in the back corner of the property, right under an off ramp of the nearby highway. It can be a little noisy back there, but we found the hustle and bustle added to the overall charm of the place. When we arrived, we noticed a very large lot further down our street, along with many warehouses lining some of the back streets in the blocks around our place. As the week went on, we came to realize these warehouses were chock full of float goodies and decorations for the Mardi Gras parades. The lot down the street filled up with colorful parade floats overnight! It was a pleasure to watch them flow in and out from the serenity of the hot tub. This place is gorgeous with a lot of history. The bed was very comfortable and we enjoyed the tub and large shower in our suite. The different rooms are all tastefully curated by the owners, and we’re looking forward to hopefully renting this place out for our family later this coming year for a get together. We already miss it, thanks again Mikki & Jim!
