We have visited New Orleans many times and usually stay at a Hilton or Hyatt in the French Quarter. This time we decided to try the AirBNB route and find something with an old-fashioned "real" New Orleans charm. We found it at the Chateau Orleans. When we entered the building we were reminded of our stay in Paris at a boutique hotel. The hostess at the desk was very friendly and charming, the stairs up to our unit were small and creaky ... just like they should be in a 150+ year old hotel. We had a balcony that looked out over Rue Burgundy. The furniture was a combination of antique and modern, the bed was comfortable, everything was clean, and the a/c worked GREAT!
