What Guests Say About Maison Mouton

  • Kristof
    We stayed for one night in the garden house and really loved our stay here. We enjoyed the hospitality of the staff, the cocktail moment with live music, the breakfast formula and of course our beautiful, antique room.
  • Peter-Christian
    We had a wonderful time stayin' at Maison Mouton! By far the best part is the communal breakfast which is served family style on a long table so you can chat with all the other guests from around the world. It is authentic homemade Cajun Breakfast, so treat yourself to that! Our special thanks go to the entire team that made our stay so pleasant!
  • Jessica
    What a wonderful experience! The grounds, main house and our room were beautifully appointed. All had historic charm as well as modern day amenities (wifi, a/c, etc.). The breakfast was absolutely delicious and it was such a neat experience to be able to enjoy it with other travelers. Hands down the best part though was the incredible staff from the host to the owner, everyone made us feel so welcome and right at home. I only wish we could have stayed longer and can't wait to come back! I can't recommend this place enough if you are looking for a unique, memorable lodging experience.
