New Orleans accommodations welcome you to a destination nicknamed “The Big Easy” and “NOLA”.
New Orleans known for: Mardi Gras, beignets (French pastries), streetcars, architectural range (Greek Revival, American Colonial, Victorian, Queen Anne, Italianate), curious buildings (shotgun houses, bungalows, cottages, townhouses, double-gallery houses, mansions), Catholic cemeteries (European-style), distinctive neighborhoods, museums, theaters, art galleries, parks, squares, monuments, statues, bayou, steamboats, ferries, Creole / Cajun restaurants, live music venues, voodoo shops, fleur-de-lis (heraldic lily symbol ⚜️)
Located in southernmost Louisiana, New Orleans is close to the Mississippi (state) border. The “Mighty” Mississippi River (w/ Missouri River – forms world’s fourth-longest river system) serpentines through the city’s southside before bending southward. The Mississippi continues for 100 miles and splits into four distributaries (Head of Passes) before emptying into the Gulf of America / Mexico. Big Easy’s Bourbon Street hosts the world-famous Mardi Gras celebration. Not far from the Central Business District (CBD), Bourbon Street passes through the city’s oldest neighborhood, Vieux Carre Historic District (commonly known as the “French Quarter”). Founded by the French in 1718, the French Quarter charms and entertains (colorful buildings, cast-iron balconies, jazz clubs, Cajun restaurants, lively bars, street performers).

Year-round live music & entertainment can be found on Frenchmen Street. New Orleans accommodations are some of the Southern United State’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.
New Orleans’ history is intertwined with both immense prosperity and racial discord. Choctaw natives referred to the area as bulbancha (land of many tongues). La Nouvelle-Orléans (New Orleans) was founded by the French Mississippi Company (corporation / monopoly) in early-1718. The French would encounter numerous Native America tribes early-on (Natchez most notably). Named after Philippe II “Duke of Orléans” (French prince, soldier & statesman), La Nouvelle-Orléans was established on prior “Southeastern Woodlands’ Chitimacha” lands. A notorious encounter (1720 “Natchez Revolt”) saw the Natchez overrun Fort Rosalie and kill about 230 French colonists. As a result of their actions at Fort Rosalie the Natchez were either killed, enslaved or dispersed among other tribes. Hostilities continued between the remaining Natchez and French, which led to the 1730s “Chickasaw Wars”. Allied with Great Britain, the Chickasaw arose victorious and settled in remote, heavily fortified villages. The Chickasaw famously would go undefeated against the French, while raiding Baton Rouge’s French-Louisiana residents (1748), who fled southward (New Orleans proper). The Seven Years’ War saw Great Britain defeat France. The subsequent 1763 “Treaty of Paris” ceded French-Louisiana to the Spanish Empire. With the exception of Old Ursuline Convent, 18th-century French Quarter architecture was built in the Spanish period. During the American Revolutionary War New Orleans became an important port for American revolutionaries who were smuggling aid, military equipment and supplies farther up the Mississippi River. A “secret agreement” between Spain and France, the 1800 “Third Treaty of San Ildefonso” saw France retake Louisiana. However, Napoleon Bonaparte would then sell Louisiana to the United States via the 1803 Louisiana Purchase. As applied to currency the term “Dixie” originated in New Orleans. Various ethnic groups would immigrate to New Orleans following the Louisiana Purchase, with slave labor fueling large plantations. 63% of the Territory of Orleans‘ population was black by 1809. The Territory of Orleans’ contribution to the Confederate economy was monumental, with over half a million slaves (adjusted for inflation – about five-hundred million dollar valuation today) brought to the area by 1810. The “largest slave rebellion in US history” occurred on January 8, 1811 in New Orleans. About 500 enslaved Africans broke out and killed 2 white men, but were ultimately controlled by the local militia. The War of 1812’s Battle of New Orleans (United States / Maj. Gen. Andrew Jackson vs. United Kingdom) saw an American victory. New Orleans’ Atlantic slave-trade port continued full-steam during the antebellum period (post-War of 1812 – 1861 American Civil War). During the antebellum period the area served as a major warehouse for exports / imports. Smaller vessels distributed imports up-river along the Mighty Mississippi watershed. A major export, cotton was shipped to England and New England. New Orleans would have both the Antebellum South’s largest slave market and the nation’s largest community of “free persons of color”. Horse-drawn, the Pontchartrain Railroad Company’s first streetcar began operating on April 23, 1831 along Elysian Fields Avenue, and by 1840 New Orleans had become America’s wealthiest city (per capita income ranked second). During the 1840s German and Irish immigrants arrived to seek port-laborer employment. By 1859 New Orleans’ port was handling 659,000 tons of imported goods per year (third in tonnage behind Boston and New York). Originally (Louisiana) the term “Creole” referred to white descendants of early-French / Spanish settlers. The Civil War’s Battle of Forts Jackson and St. Philip (April, 1862) saw the Union Navy overtake the city and take control of the Mississippi River, and in the same year “Cafe Du Monde Coffee Stand” was established in New Orleans French Market. Violence would ensue throughout the south in response to the 1863 “Emancipation Proclamation” (Abraham Lincoln executive order). As part of their 1865 “state party platform”, white Democrats proclaimed that “people of African descent cannot be considered as citizens of the United States”. The subsequent 1866 “New Orleans Massacre” (perpetrators: ex-Confederates, white supremacists, New Orleans Police Force members) resulted in 34 black (at least) and 4 white deaths. With help from Washington D.C. the Louisiana state government thwarted the “White League” at the 1874 Battle of Liberty Place. “Dixiecrats” passed Jim Crow laws that established “racial segregation” into the 1890s. The well-known “Plessy v. Ferguson” Supreme Court case saw the 1896 Jim Crow measures upheld. Something good came of the 1929 New Orleans streetcar strike: the po’ boy sandwich. During World War II a wartime “Rationing Board” office was established. New Orleans’ population decreased in the 1960s and 70s. Louisiana’s tallest building, One Shell Square (Hancock Whitney Center) was completed in 1972. On August 3, 1975 Louisiana Superdome opened.
Home to around 385,000 “New Orleanians”, New Orleans (officially a consolidated city-parish) is Louisiana’s most populous city. Today New Orleans’ port ranks among the top-5 United States’ largest ports by cargo volume. Found in the Mississippi River Delta (3-million acres of land where Mississippi-River confluence meets Gulf of America / Mexico), NOLA is due-south of Lake Pontchartrain. At 697 feet Hancock Whitney Center is the city’s tallest building, with most other skyscrapers found in the Central Business District (CBD – due-north / west of Mississippi River). Rooted in Roman Catholicism, New Orleans is home to several large, European-style, Catholic cemeteries. Tanker ships and steam boats can be spotted in a city that was once home to Tennessee Williams (American playwright) for over 40 years. Williams’ A Streetcar Named Desire (1947) takes place in the French Quarter. Louis Armstrong (American trumpeter & vocalist) was born in NOLA on August 4, 1901. New Orleans enjoys short, mild winters. Summers are often hot and humid (record-high temperature – 105°F). Snowfall is rare, though not impossible.
Additional points of interest: New Orleans Museum of Art, Fair Grounds Race Course & Slots, Central Business District, St. Charles Avenue, Crescent City Connection (cantilever bridges), Tulane University, The University of New Orleans
New Orleans local foods: gumbo, jambalaya, crawfish etouffee (sweet crawfish, rich gravy), po-boys (traditional sandwich – roast beef / fried seafood), muffuletta (round Sicilian sesame bread sandwich), beignets (deep-fried choux pastry), bananas foster (dessert – bananas / vanilla ice cream)
Popular drinks: brandy milk punch, the “Vieux Carre” (Sweet-Manhattan-like – created 1938), sazerac (cognac / whiskey cocktail), French 75 (gin & champagne cocktail w/ lemon, sugary – created WWI era), brunch cocktails
