Have an enchanting stay at the oldest surviving opera house in the country, in the Carriage House Suite. The Duchamp OperaHouse is listed on the National Register of Historic Places with its rich history and original brick walls dating back almost two centuries, it’s a unique and romantic experience. The presence of the original carriage on-site that was used to transport guest from the ferryboats from Bayou Teche to the Opera House adds an extra layer of historical charm to the ambiance. Walk in from Main Street parking just feet away from your own private courtyard. The entire space is thoughtfully designed and elegantly renovated, featuring convenient amenities despite its historical roots. The very comfortable queen Murphy bed hidden within the bedroom cabinet closets offers versatility, while the kitchenette boasts white marble countertops, top of the line air fryer/microwave, sink, and a small fridge with freezer. The large bathroom, equipped with ADA-compliant fixtures and beautiful antique vanity, is spacious and accommodating, complemented by high ceilings and fine materials throughout the entire area, adding to its charm and comfort. Imagining the lively scene of the horse-drawn carriage navigating through what is now the Carriage House Suite, serving as a pivotal spot for transporting travelers from the Bayou Teche ferryboat to the alleyway between the Duchamp Opera House and New Era Hotel, brings a vivid sense of history to the space. This historical significance, serving as a hub for transportation, entertainment and hospitality in the 1800s, truly enriches the suite's narrative, offering a glimpse into a bygone era of travel and accommodation in Historic St. Martinville “Petit Paris”
