New Orleans Hotels

Sponsored Post!

I've often wondered about going to New Orleans (seriously). I used to be the biggest fan of Anne Rice's The Vampire Chronicles (remember Interview with the Vampire?) which set several scenes in or around the New Orleans area. She just made it seem so magical and ancient and always a little bit different than any other city in the world.

As I got older though I learnt about the the enormous music scene and the annual Mardi Gras which a friend of mine at Uni went to and raved about for weeks.

Hurricane Katrina seemed to put an end to almost all of that... or so I thought.

Seems that the a lot of the area (though unfortunately many are still suffering) is on the mend and I'm curious now about visiting not for any of my previous reasons but to see how the city is coping.

Searching around, Mariott Hotels has a massive range of New Orleans hotels. It's actually kind of scary how big their range is. From full on hotels to smaller residences, Mariott Hotels is a great source of accommodation if you're planning a trip there.

For the anti-smoker (like myself) the Courtyard New Orleans Downtown Near the French Quarter is apparently completely smoke free since 2006 which makes it my pick out of the bunch.
