It's a stylish apartment with an array of luxurious mod-cons that will make your stay in New Orleans that much sweeter. From the gym to the games room to the rooftop swimming pool (our personal favourite), this apartment building really packs a punch with its communal add-ons. Inside, there's a warmth to this flat that will have you feeling all cosy and comfortable from the get-go. It's an industrial build, with exposed brickwork and large picture windows that date back to NOLA's creole roots, and yet, you'll find a modern interior with chic furniture, funky patterns and bold wallpaper prints that really bring the home to life. Come evening, get ready in your sleek marble-clad bathroom and head up to the deck for sunset views over the "Big Easy" – pre-dinner drinks go down a treat up here. Set off into this vibrant city for a night of live jazz and tantalising cuisine – both Bourbon Street and the French Quarter are less than twenty-five minutes (on foot) from home.

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...
