Places to Stay: New Orleans Hotels

Trying to select where you’ll stay when you come to New Orleans is like trying to decide what you’ll eat when you get here. The menu is awesome. You just want everything.

Book a cute little shotgun B&B in the Marigny – with a sweet little porch, a claw foot tub, a sleek cappuccino machine and lovely artwork on the walls.

Or stay in an opulent French Quarter hotel with floor-to-ceiling marble in the lobby, Sazeracs in the lounge and a bell boy just like the one who carried up Elvis’ luggage oh so many years ago.

Or maybe pick one the newer artsier hotels in the Garden District. Tasteful. Understated. Just lovely. The kind of place where the clutter of your everyday life will just disappear.

The places you can stay in New Orleans are as diverse as the city itself. Here’s a start to finding your home away from home in the Crescent City.
