A 20-minute walk away from Bourbon Street and the dazzling French Quarter, this home will see you exploring the Big Easy in style. Wake up to fresh coffee each morning (there's a blender and drip coffee maker in the kitchen for connoisseurs), and enjoy breakfast at the sleek diner. You can't miss the exposed brick walls and large windows, melding tradition with style, and the framed photographs anchor you in New Orleans. The best part about this home, though, might be the building's excellent facilities. Head to the high-tech gym for a workout, or just unwind in the lobby lounge – this is also the ideal place for catching up with emails while you're away. When it's time to explore, enjoy a cocktail in a bar on Bourbon Street, sample delicious Creole cuisine in an authentic restaurant, and visit the National WWII Museum - there are so many ways to spend your time. And on nights when you just feel like a home-cooked meal, you'll find everything you need in the kitchen – perfect for enjoying with your fellow guests.

About New Orleans
New Orleans is one lively city – whether we’re talking food, candy-coloured architecture or nightlife, there’s nowhere else in the United States – or even the world – quite like this Louisianan cultural mecca. You’ll find indigenous cuisine here that hybridizes Caribbean, African and European influences – so embrace your inner hedonist and dive head first into Gumbo, beignets and po’ boys. It’s a city where jazz is as prevalent...
