Boutique Hotels In New Orleans For A Big Easy Stay

By Enid Hinton


Certain types of accommodations for visitors in the Big Easy are also a tourist experience. A stay at one of these boutique hotels in New Orleans transports guests back in time. A week or weekend in a Victorian home soaked in old-world charm and a healthy slice of southern hospitality makes most guests believe they're back in the 19th century.

A boutique hotel located in the French Quarter is like a small and cozy B&B. The street it's on may look peaceful and quiet, but it'll be just a short stroll from the coffee shops, galleries, jazz clubs, nightlife and the bright lights of Bourbon Street. It's also an ideal base for exploring all the nearby famed tourist attractions such as St. Louis Cathedral and the rest of Jackson Square, the French Market, Convention Center and Superdome.

It's like staying with family or a friend, where you are given a warm welcome and made to feel at home. Think about a graceful old mansion with wooden signs and antique patio furniture outside, leading to a grand old hall that serves as a lobby adorned with exquisite old chandeliers. Stepping inside the hall transports guests into a bygone era when these homes were inhabited by sugar plantation owners.

The time travel experience continues into the guest rooms adorned with antiques, a four-poster bed and an ornate mirror. The warm glow from a fireplace and the flickering lights adds to the feeling of being in a comfortable home away from home. These are the kind of things that makes it stand out from a standard cookie-cutter hotel room.

Of course, the adherence to tradition and a period vibe doesn't mean that guests don't have access to all the modern amenities. Every guest will have wired or wireless Internet access in-room, and perhaps complimentary WI-Fi all over the property. Not to mention free local calls and television with cable.

The luxury stay may also include daily maid service and turndowns, valet parking, and coffee and tea served in the lobby. The 24-hour front desk staff and concierge make sure that every request by each guest is fulfilled. An individual or family staying at the hotel gets a free pass on laundry, cooking, cleaning, doing the dishes and other such drudgeries of life. This makes it, in every sense of the word, a true holiday.

All the personal attention and service, along with the luxurious and comfortable accommodations, makes every guest feel at least a little bit pampered. Then there's also the magic of Louisiana's Creole cuisine and gourmet food, and the fresh seafood which the Big Easy is so famous for. After a couple of days of this, most guests don't really want to check out and go home.

It's hard for any other place in the world to come up with so much tourist fun combined with lodging and historic attractions. Whether it's a riverboat ride, antique shopping or just drinks and entertainment in clubs and bars, every place a tourist wanders into has one or two centuries' worth of history worth sharing. Throw in a New Orleans boutique hotel into this mix, and the holiday becomes even more memorable.
