French Quarter is an area of New Orleans that you shouldn’t miss. If seeing Jackson Square and French Market is a priority for you, booking a hotel in this neighbourhood is a terrific idea. Another option is Vieux Carre District. From here, you’ll have easy access to Jackson Square and French Market.

If you’re thinking of staying in the Central Business District neighbourhood, some top options are New Orleans Marriott and Astor Crowne Plaza New Orleans, an IHG Hotel. French Quarter is another popular New Orleans area. We recommend New Orleans Marriott or Royal Sonesta New Orleans if you prefer this end of town.

March, July, February are the high season months and when this destination is often at its best. Clear space in your calendar for October, December, November if you’d prefer a quieter holiday.
