Grab a sno-ball, browse vintage shops, or take in live music on Frenchmen Street, this is where New Orleans lives and breathes.

Esplanade Avenue holds its history close - and this second-floor suite, set inside an 1883 mansion, lets you feel it the moment you step through the door. Tall windows draw in the New Orleans light, casting warmth across original artwork and vintage furnishings that give the space its unmistakable character. Outside, your private balcony looks out over lush gardens, offering a calm perch to start your mornings or wind down your evenings.
Sleeping arrangements
The bedroom centers on an antique full-size bed dressed in soft linens, with room-darkening shades ensuring you sleep at whatever hour New Orleans demands. A spacious sitting room extends the suite, giving you room to relax, read, or settle in front of the TV after a day out in the city.
Bathroom
A classic clawfoot tub with shower anchors the bathroom, finished with vintage décor that fits the suite's character. Plush towels, shampoo, conditioner, body soap, shower gel, and a hair dryer are all provided, along with an iron and cleaning products for anything you need during your stay.
Living & workspace
Curated décor and original artwork fill the suite throughout - and there may even be an opportunity to meet the artist during your visit. A dedicated desk and workspace make it easy to catch up on anything work-related, while air conditioning, a ceiling fan, and heating keep the suite comfortable across every season.
Kitchen & dining
A mini fridge and coffee maker handle light refreshments and your morning routine. For everything else, the neighborhood delivers - dining options within walking distance range from neighborhood spots to well-known New Orleans institutions.
Outdoor living
Your private balcony overlooks the gardens and the quiet rhythm of the surrounding neighborhood. Outdoor furniture is available, and access to the backyard extends your options for taking in some fresh air.
Location
