The Green House Inn - A restored 1840s B&B with a clothing-optional saltwater pool in the Lower Garden District
Located in the historic Lower Garden District, this New Orleans hotel occupies a lovingly restored 1840s house featuring exposed cypress beams and original heart of pine floors. The 3-star Green House Inn combines historic charm with modern amenities, offering rooms equipped with deluxe king-size beds, private bathrooms with Italian tile showers, individual climate controls, and flat-screen TVs. A complimentary continental breakfast includes coffee, tea, orange juice, croissants, muffins, toast, fresh fruit, yogurt, and boiled eggs. The centerpiece is a tree-shaped saltwater swimming pool with waterfalls and fiber optic lighting, accompanied by an oversized Jacuzzi-style hot tub in a semi-tropical garden setting. Free WiFi and a broadband-connected PC with printer are available throughout the property. The B&B sits within walking distance of notable restaurants like Blue Giant, Magazine Pizza, and Emeril's Delmonico, while The National WWII Museum is 0.5 miles away and the Morial Convention Center is 0.5 miles from the property.

“What stands out is the inn's clothing-optional saltwater pool and hot tub, a distinctly adult-oriented amenity amid New Orleans' attractions. I especially like the dedication to preserving the historic house's charm while offering modern comforts, like free Wi-Fi and a self-serve breakfast. Its location in the Lower Garden District means convenient access to both tranquility and city life.”
