"New Orleans - it's not like anything you'd expect from a US city. The French Quarter's got an air of crumbling, Venetian hush, the Garden District's all palatial white clapboard mansions and Magazine Street's as trendy as it gets. And of course it's music central, and reinvents itself every generation. Stay off Bourbon Street, and you'll have much of it to yourself."
Staying at a hotel before you fly out to New Orleans is a great way to start your holiday early. Take the stress out of travelling to the airport by getting there a day early and relaxing in a home from home. Or extend your break by booking into an airport hotel when you return.
