Degas House

The house where Edgar Degas actually lived and painted in 1872 — now a combined museum and B&B on Esplanade Ridge, beneath stunning avenue oaks. Book the house tour, which is fascinating, and the included breakfast comes with Impressionist-inspired presentation. The Esplanade Avenue setting is beautiful for morning walks. It is a must for art lovers: a genuine piece of art history you can sleep inside, where the museum and the lodging are one and the same. Few hotels anywhere can claim a master painter as a former resident — here the connection is real, documented, and woven into the whole experience.
