This light-filled historic warehouse was once a 1920s automobile showroom. Today it’s home to this stylish apartment, which retains many of the building’s original features – just in swankier form. Think high ceilings, wire glass windows, exposed brickwork, industrial-style ductwork and concrete floors, all softened with reclaimed wood stairs and doors. There’s a large and comfortable living area for relaxing evenings and lazy breakfasts, and cosy bedrooms tucked upstairs for a peaceful night’s sleep. You’ll need your rest if you’re planning on exploring the buzzing nightlife and bars of New Orleans’ Bourbon Street, which is just a 15-minute walk away. Spend the days wandering historical streets and sampling the unique Cajun cuisine. Return home and enjoy a drink on the communal rooftop patio overlooking the city. Then dive back into the birthplace of jazz at one of the many lively clubs in the French Quarter.

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...
