This was our 4th stay and- besides the initial thrill of discovering this GEM back in '00- our best stay. Under new ownership, the feeling of comfort is totally intact-- but there is more comraderie at breakfast and beyond, now that the innkeeper has breakfast in the gorgeous dining room. We ate together, swapped tips about Jazz Fest, and enjoyed... More

Dale and Dave appear to have gotten the perfect replacement for themselves. WHile we hope that they enjoy their retirement on the road, my wife and I are looking forward to a return stay at the Olive next year!. We were the 3rd couple to check in the week Nancy took over and I have to say she took the... More

We stayed for a week at Sweet Olive, a return visit, but our first since new owner, Nancy Gunn, has refreshed the place and highlighted the beautiful hand-painted walls in the double parlor by moving the breakfast table there and removing old curtains and furniture. Nancy prepares a wonderful breakfast special dish every morning--eggs Florentine, apple bread pudding--in addition to... More

The original owners, Dale and David really found the perfect person to pass on their lovely B & B to. Her attention to detail and FANTASTIC cooking skills will keep this spot on the top... More

Four of us stayed here from Dec 21-25 and enjoyed everything about it. Jessica and her daughter Sadie greeted us and they were both very welcoming. The decor and bright and homey and the main hallway walls were filled with framed posters of all things New Orleans. There was a gorgeous Christmas tree in the Banana Room and other really... More

They were great hosts and provided a complete introduction to New Orleans with maps and recommendations focussed on the area where the B&B is based. Breakfast was so relaxed and lovely, and, after searching for days for... More
