When you’re visiting New Orleans – known as The Big Easy – you need an apartment to match the laid-back lifestyle. And this fuss-free pad is the perfect fit. Located just a five-minute drive from world-famous Bourbon Street, the industrial-style interiors are effortlessly cool – we love the red brick walls and exposed light bulbs. As soon as you arrive, drop your bags and visit the French Quarter, the city’s oldest neighbourhood just a ten-minute drive away. Hang out in iconic jazz bars, admire the Creole townhouses and fill up on fluffy beignets. Before you head back to your abode, stock up on cocktail essentials for an evening of mixology using your bar cart accoutrements. In the morning, get your endorphins flowing in the shared gym before rustling up a tasty breakfast in your fully-equipped kitchen, the perfect start to another vibrant day in New Orleans.
