"New Orleans has inspired music, art and even a few fairy tales. Here gourmet dining, shopping, gallery-hopping and hot Jazz all take place in the shadow of another time.

In the heart of it all, on fashion- able Saint Charles Avenue, is The Lafayette Hotel. A 1916 historic landmark, this luxury hotel has been restored to its former splendor with its original French doors and wrought iron balconies so typical of the period."

From Lafayette Hotel.
