Imagine yourself sipping a bourbon sour and listening to the sweet sound of New Orleans jazz – just a ten-minute walk from the live music hubbub of vibrant Bourbon Street. Inside, this stylish apartment hits all the right notes, with traditional floor-to-ceiling shuttered windows, exposed brick walls and polished wooden floors. With plenty of modern comforts thrown in, you can put together a big American breakfast in the sociable kitchen, while mapping out the day's adventures. Limber up, work out in the on-site gym or catch your breath in the building's shared chill-out lounge downstairs. As evening draws in, you really couldn't be better situated for sampling tantalising Cajun and Creole cuisine or jazzing it up at a surplus of hip bars.
