We have made New Orleans our home since 1974. I went to under-grad and grad school at UNO & Tulane. Our 3 kids were born and raised here. We have owned and operated Silk Road Tavern, for over 30 years. We love renovating old properties in historic New Orleans neighborhoods, like Marigny, Treme and the French Quarter. We also enjoy describing the local creole/cajun cuisine, music, architecture culture and charm of Nola, the city we fell in love at first sight. Kindly wine, dine & recline in our tavern & guesthouse.

The Balcony Guest House (located in the Marigny), is your New Orleans Bed and Breakfast above Silk Road Restaurant. The B&B includes Silk Road, a New Orleans Restaurant, that includes amenities like a wonderful menu, a wine market, private event space and bar. We're also a licensed alcohol vendor, so guests can buy their favorite wine, beer or beverage from our store. Come and stay in our unique New Orleans Vacation Rental and see why everyone who stays loves it. Hang out and relax on our private balcony overlooking the historic, alluring and relaxed (Creole Caribé) Marigny area.

Whether your itinerary includes a day of sightseeing, antiques shopping and dining in the historic French Quarter or a night of listening to the best sounds of New Orleans on Frenchmen Street, look no further for a local Vacation Rental; The Balcony Guest House is perfect for a relaxing retreat. City Park (third largest urban park in the U.S.) is also nearby and houses NOMA (New Orleans Museum of Art), tennis courts, botanical gardens, and four golf courses, as well as being a wonderful area to ride bikes and view the huge historic and documented oak trees. Bikes can be rented on Frenchmen Street, at Bicycle Michael’s–5 blocks away. The ride up Esplanade Avenue to the park is pleasant, and bikes are available for rent near the park as well. The Fairgrounds are also near the City Park end of Esplanade. This is the site for the New Orleans Jazz Fest every year, on the last weekend of April and first weekend of May.
