I feel as if I've just spent 4 days with a wonderful friend, who happens to have a gorgeous home and who makes the most delicious breakfasts. In fact I have, Jess Beaty is the proprietor of 5 Continents, which is one of the most comfortable and comforting places a person could visit. I felt so pampered there that it's... more

The 5 Continents is an excellent choice for a stay in New Orleans. It is conveniently located within a short cab ride($7.50) to the Quarter on Esplanade Avenue. It is about 14 blocks to the edge of the French Quarter. Esplanade is one of the loveliest streets anywhere and the 5Cs is a diamond among these many architectural jewels. My... more

We had a great visit. The house is beautiful. We really enjoyed the size of the rooms and how comfortable the bed was. The breakfast was delicious. When we looked at the other bed and breakfasts in the area, this was the only one that had a full breakfast in the morning rather than the same continental breakfast the hotels... more

Having spent much of my trip alternating between chains and more quirky, off the beaten track, accomodation, arriving at the 5 Continents was a real pleasure. Staying in the cottage behind the main house, the room was tastefully decorated and far better appointed than many 5 star hotels. Jess, the owner, was very friendly and happy to take the time... more

Jess was the perfect host. We stayed in the Eurasian, 2-room suite w/our 18-year old daughter for 2 nights. It was our first time in New Orleans. The house is grand, old & elegant. The rooms were fine. The food was spectacular. Jess' knowledge of New Orleans is unsurpassed. It extended beyond the normal "where to go" & "what to... more

This is the best B&B I have stayed at. I chose it because of location and the TripAdvisor reviews, and was not disappointed. The location is great, within an easy walk of the French Quarter, but without being in the middle of all the chaos. It has gated off street parking which is nice, but we just left the car... more

I stumbled across 5C's on Trip Advisor while looking to book a nice trip for my wife and I. While doing my research I called to ask a few questions and spoke with Jess. He was great, answered all my questions and went out of his way to provide travel tips and vacation suggestions. Upon arriving, my wife and I... more

An absolutely gorgeous setting! The building is beautiful and very nicely decorated. Within walking distance to the French Quarter, although after dark a cheap taxi ride would be best (about seven dollars). We had the European suite. Beautifully decorated and very roomy. Has a balcony overlooking the street. Jess's breakfast was excellent too. Fine china, fruits, assorted jams, coffee and... more

If you want to feel special...then the Five Continents if for you. Jess the owner is adorable. He is an outstanding host and a Wonderful COOK. His home is so inviting and makes you feel you are walking into a friends home. This was our first time in a Bed and Breakfast...and we loved it. The location is out of... more
