At the Terrell House in New Orleans, we invite you to be our guest and experience gracious Southern hospitality and immerse yourself in all New Orleans has to offer. Our historic, newly renovated antebellum home is located in the Lower Garden District on Magazine Street. The Terrell House is 4 blocks from the Morial Convention Center, 3 blocks from the St. Charles Avenue streetcar and only 1 block from lovely Coliseum Square with its centuries old Live Oaks. It is the perfect location to make the most of you stay in our wonderful, historically rich city. The French Quarter is easily accessible from the Terrell House as is fabulous dining, avant-garde boutiques, antique shops, art galleries, and pubs found on Magazine Street. The pace at the Terrell House is relaxed--the decor subtly elegant and inviting. For the seriously afflicted bibliophile, we have a decent collection of first edition/first printings by Faulkner, Hemingway, Steinbeck, Kerouac, Barry Hannah, McMurtry, Willie Morris, Larry Brown, and Kurt Vonnegut among others. As guests at the Terrell House, you will experience a blend of history, luxury, charm, and Southern hospitality.

The Terrell House has been described by guests as "an oasis in the heart of historic New Orleans -- achieving a balance between elegance and comfort". Built in 1857 for Richard Terrell, a wealthy cotton broker originally from Natchez, Mississippi, the Terrell House is a grand three story Italianate stucco-over-brick mansion. The main house features porches, galleries, and balconies framed in ornate cast iron and a brick New Orleans courtyard complete with several fountains and lush vegetation. Many of the original architectural elements remain in the house. Guests may relax in the courtyard as well as enjoy use of the beautifully appointed double parlors and den featuring 14 foot ceilings crowned with plaster moldings and ornate ceiling medallions. Period English and American antiques are to be found throughout the house but modern amenities abound where comfort is an issue. After a long day of exploring New Orleans, there is no better place to seek refuge than in the beautiful surroundings of Terrell House.
