Set in the quiet residential neighbourhood of Mid-City, and yet just a ten-minute streetcar ride from the jazz beats and old-world charms of the French Quarter, you've got the best of both worlds with a stay at this sophisticated townhouse. Meet Mid-City's friendly locals and soak up the laidback vibes at the walkable restaurants and bars nearby – think Cajun-Creole eateries and mellow breakfast spots. Check out the vast green spaces of City Park and the eclectic art of the New Orleans Museum of Art – both a twenty-five-minute stroll away. And when it's time to turn up the heat, hop on the city's red streetcar and follow the bright lights down to the cocktail bars of Bourbon Street – you'll be there in ten minutes flat. Back at the three-storey townhouse, this newly built property's fresh, uplifting interiors are a joy to come home to after days of gallivanting about New Orleans. And with bedrooms spaced apart over two floors to give guests that extra bit of privacy, you'll love how spacious the home feels. Sunny evenings call for drinks on the balcony or in the shared gardens. And when thoughts turn to food, there's everything you need to flex... your culinary muscles in the sleek, modern kitchen before gathering your ensemble around the vast dining table. It's the perfect spot for lazy meals as you hatch plans for another day in The Big Easy.

Local guide
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...
