Bourbon Orleans Hotel

This historic French Quarter hotel offers the perfect stay during your trip to New Orleans. The iconic building has a rich history and has kept much of its grand design, which originates from its previous life as high-society ballroom. Its period detail, twinkling chandeliers, glistening marble floors and arched windows, provide a timeless setting which can be enjoyed by all.

The elegant design continues throughout the guest rooms and suites, with some overlooking the quaint French Quarter courtyard and others neighbouring the famous Bourbon Street itself. We opted for the spacious Deluxe King room which backed on to the inner courtyard, but you can also book an identical room with a private balcony offering a birds-eye view of the vibrant streets below. 

The stunning courtyard also features a heated saltwater pool where you can relax on the comfortable sun loungers whilst making the most of the hotel bar’s signature cocktails. 

To enhance Bourbon Orleans’ excellent rating further, it’s situated in a prime location, right in the heart of the French Quarter. Spanning an entire block just North of the renowned St. Louis Cathedral and Jackson Square, everything is within walking distance from here - I mean you can almost smell the beignets from the nearby Café Du Monde!
