If you’re coming during festival season or Mardi Gras, plan to book early. Listen to jazz music in the lobby or grab a to-go drink next door. Some hotels have pools, while others have award-winning restaurants (or are just steps from them). Hotels are scattered throughout, and make the perfect place to call home after a long night. Choose from lavish rooms with wrought-iron balconies overlooking the rowdiest rue in the French Quarter or quieter, inside rooms with peaceful French Quarter courtyard views. The street stretches 13 blocks from Canal Street to Esplanade Avenue.
