New Orleans accommodations
New Orleans accommodations welcome you to a destination nicknamed “The Big Easy” and “NOLA”. Known for its fleur-de-lis (heraldic lily symbol ⚜️), streetcars, steamboats, ferries, distinctive neighborhoods, Creole/Cajun restaurants, live music/cocktail bars, coffee houses, cafes, festivals, notable streets, parks, squares, monuments, statues, museums, theaters, art galleries and voodoo shops, New Orleans is located in southernmost Louisiana, not far from the Mississippi border. Flowing in a serpentine path, the Mississippi River passes through the city’s southside before bending southward for 100 miles, splitting into four distributaries (Head of Passes) and emptying into the Gulf of Mexico. A charming city, NOLA is home to Bourbon Street, which hosts the world-famous Mardi Gras celebration. Not far from the Central Business District, Bourbon Street is found in the city’s oldest neighborhood of Vieux Carre Historic District, or French Quarter. Founded by the French in 1718, the French Quarter is home to colorful buildings with cast-iron balconies, jazz clubs, Cajun restaurants, lively bars, street performers and more.

Not far southwest from Caesars Superdome, Smoothie King Center is the New Orleans Pelicans‘ home arena. NOLA vibes are generally laid-back and easy-going. New Orleans is pronounced “New AHL-lee-ins” by locals, or more commonly “New OR-lins”. Some locals speak a unique dialect known as the Yat accent, an example of which being “Where y’at?” (how are you?). Additional accents are Uptown and Black and White working-class dialects. If visiting The Big Easy during Mardi Gras, or Fat Tuesday, there are some things to keep in mind. You’ll want to try and book your hotel at least 8 months in advance. During Mardi Gras, hotels often require 4-to-5-day minimum stays. Mardi Gras rules to remember are to keep coolers and grills at least 6 feet from the curb and to drink beverages in cans or cups, as glass bottles are not permitted. Prolonged flashing/nudity, as well as public urination, can lead to arrest. Be sure to arrive at least 4 hours early for Mardi Gras and remember that the general public’s vehicles are not allowed within the French Quarter during this time. Aside from Mardi Gras, year-round live music seekers may find lively entertainment on Frenchmen Street. New Orleans accommodations are some of the Gulf Coast’s best. Before we get to New Orleans accommodations, let’s take a look at some more background information on the area to help you along the way.
Prior to European settlement, the Choctaw referred to the New Orleans-area as Bulbancha, or “land of many tongues”. Early in 1718, La Nouvelle-Orléans (New Orleans) was founded by the French Mississippi Company, a corporation that held a business monopoly in North America and other places. Named after French prince, soldier and statesman Philippe II, Duke of Orléans, the new city was established on land inhabited by the Chitimacha people of Louisiana’s Southeastern Woodlands. Early-on, the French came into conflict with numerous Native America tribes. Most notably, the Natchez, during the 1720 Natchez Revolt, overran Fort Rosalie and killed approximately 230 French colonists. As a consequence of their revolt, the Natchez were either killed, enslaved or dispersed among other tribes. The actions between the Natchez and French led to the 1730s Chickasaw Wars, from which the Chickasaw, aligned with Great Britain, arose victorious. The Chickasaw tribe persisted in their remote, heavily fortified villages, and were never defeated by the French. Spurred by Chickasaw raids in 1748, French-Louisiana residents near Baton Rouge traveled south to take refuge in New Orleans proper. Following France’s defeat by Great Britain in the Seven Years’ War and the 1763 Treaty of Paris, France ceded Louisiana to the Spanish Empire. The French Quarter’s remaining (to this day) 18th-century architecture, with the exception of Old Ursuline Convent, actually was built during the Spanish period. New Orleans became an important port for smuggling aid, military equipment and supplies farther up the Mississippi River for American revolutionaries. France retook control of New Orleans and Louisiana by way of the 1800 Third Treaty of San Ildefonso (a secret agreement between Spain and France). In turn, however, Napoleon sold the city and state to the United States through the 1803 Louisiana Purchase. The term “Dixie”, as applied to currency, originated in New Orleans. Following the Louisiana Purchase, various ethnic groups immigrated to the city, and slave labor ensued full-throttle on nearby large plantations. By 1809, 63 percent of the Territory of Orleans‘ population was black. Over half a million slaves had been brought to the area by 1810, which fueled the Confederate economy. Altogether, slaves were valued at around half a billion dollars. The “largest slave rebellion in US history” occurred on January 8, 1811, when about 500 enslaved Africans rose up and killed 2 white men, but were ultimately controlled by the local militia. During the War of 1812, the Battle of New Orleans between the United States (led by Major General Andrew Jackson) and the United Kingdom resulted in an American victory. The antebellum period, which spanned from the War of 1812’s end to the onset of the American Civil War, saw the port of New Orleans playing a major role in the Atlantic slave trade. Exports and imports were warehoused in the area, with imports being distributed up-river by smaller vessels along the Mighty Mississippi watershed. Cotton was exported to England and New England. New Orleans had both the Antebellum South’s largest slave market and the nation’s largest community of free persons of color. Horse-drawn, New Orleans’ first streetcar began operating on April 23, 1831 along Elysian Fields Avenue by the Pontchartrain Railroad Company. By 1840, New Orleans had become America’s wealthiest city. New Orleans’ per capita income ranked second in the nation. German and Irish immigrants arrived during the 1840s to work as port laborers. By 1859, New Orleans’ port was handling 659,000 tons of imported goods annually, making it third in tonnage behind Boston and New York. Creole elite were permanently disrupted by way of the American Civil War. A pivotal Civil War battle that would allow the Union unfettered control of the Mississippi River, the Battle of Forts Jackson and St. Philip saw the Union Navy overtake the city in April, 1862. The 1863 Emancipation Proclamation brought with it violence throughout the south. At least 34 blacks and 4 whites died as a consequence of The New Orleans Massacre of 1866. The 1874 Battle of Liberty Place between the White League and Louisiana State Government ultimately resulted in a Louisiana state government victory (with Federal influence). Near the 1890s, Dixiecrats passed Jim Crow laws that established racial segregation. The famous Plessy v. Ferguson Supreme Court decision in 1896 upheld Jim Crow measures. Often credited with the creation of the po’ boy sandwich, the 1929 New Orleans streetcar strike commenced, as Amalgamated Association of Electric Street Railway Employees, Division 194, members sought better pay and working conditions. During World War II, a wartime Rationing Board office was established in the city. By the 1960s, New Orleans had fallen behind Houston, Dallas, Atlanta and Miami in terms of size, and the 1970 census tallied the city’s first absolute population decline since 1803. New Orleans’ tallest building, One Shell Square, now known as Hancock Whitney Center, was completed in 1972. Tourism became an important economic contributor beginning around the mid-1980s. Named Louisiana Superdome (opened August 3, 1975), Mercedes-Benz Superdome and Caesars Superdome, respectively, present-day Caesars Superdome has hosted 7 Super Bowls.
Home to around 385,000 “New Orleanians”, New Orleans, officially a consolidated city-parish, is Louisiana’s most populous city. A major Gulf Coast port city, New Orleans is the United States’ fifth-largest port in terms of cargo volume. Just south of Lake Pontchartrain, NOLA is located in the Mississippi River Delta, a three-million-acre area of land where the Mississippi River confluence meets the Gulf of Mexico. Naturally, both freshwater and saltwater fishing are popular outdoor activities, with fish species to include largemouth bass, speckled trout, redfish, flounder, tuna, red snapper and more. The city’s tallest building at 697 feet is Hancock Whitney Center, formerly known as One Shell Square. Most other skyscrapers are located near Canal and Poydras Streets in the Central Business District, which is just north and west of the Mississippi River. New Orleans famously is home to a range of architectural styles, which include Greek Revival, American Colonial, Victorian, Queen Anne and Italianate, along with shotgun houses, bungalows, cottages, townhouses, double-gallery houses and mansions. Embedded in Roman Catholicism, the area also is characterized by its large European-style Catholic cemeteries. Large tanker ships and smaller steam boats alike can be observed navigating the city’s waterways. Famed playwright Tennessee Williams lived in New Orleans for over 40 years. Williams’ play A Streetcar Named Desire takes place in the French Quarter circa the late-1940s. American trumpeter and vocalist Louis Armstrong was born in New Orleans on August 4, 1901. New Orleans enjoys short, mild winters, while summers are hot and humid. 105°F is the city’s record-high temperature. Snowfall is rare, but is entirely possible. Additional points of interest are New Orleans Museum of Art, Fair Grounds Race Course & Slots, Central Business District, St. Charles Avenue, Crescent City Connection (cantilever bridges), Tulane University and The University of New Orleans. Local foods include gumbo, jambalaya, crawfish etouffee (sweet, meaty crawfish in rich, flavorful gravy), po-boys (traditional Louisiana sandwich – roast beef / fried seafood), muffuletta (round Sicilian sesame bread sandwich), beignets (deep-fried choux pastry) and bananas foster (dessert – bananas / vanilla ice cream). Some fun Mardi Gras drinks are Brandy Milk Punch, Vieux Carre (a variation of the Sweet Manhattan), Sazerac (a cognac / whiskey cocktail) and French 75 (sugary, lemon, gin & champagne cocktail, which dates to World War I). Keep in mind that boozy brunches are quite popular in New Orleans. With some background information on the area, we’re ready for New Orleans accommodations that will help make for a, hopefully, memorable experience.
