Description Streetcars & Trumpets: New Orleans

If you know your Big Band from your Bebop, you'll adore this apartment, just four blocks away from Bourbon Street and its jazz clubs. Admire the historic architecture and cast-iron balconies, try out the Cajun eateries or have a Mint Julep in one of the lively bars. If you fancy something more sedate, foodies will love the French Market, with its gourmet food and local crafts stalls. Back at the smart apartment, the warehouse-style living space smacks of industrial chic, with its large windows and exposed brick walls. Elsewhere in the building, there's a stylish communal piano lounge to chill out and socialize in and even an on-site gym. But with many charming New Orleans attractions on your doorstep, we doubt you'll be spending much time indoors.
