This bright and modern home is the ideal base to explore the food, fun, and famous French Quarter without sacrificing on home comforts. Just a seven-minute walk from the bars of bustling Bourbon Street and Canal Street’s streetcars, this home is close to the action but just distant enough to be a calm haven away from the tourist noise at the end of a day. The living spaces are open and smartly furnished, with a nod to the city’s history in the exposed brick walls. Head to one of New Orleans’ many museums or galleries, try one of the authentic seafood dishes in the local restaurants, and come back to enjoy a nightcap on your private balcony while you plan what to do tomorrow.
