"Just two blocks from the French Quarter, this Intercontinenal also offers quick access to the New Orleans Arts District and abuts the city's Mardi Gras parade route. Located on the historic site of the former St. Charles Theater, the onsite pool and carnival-themed dining at Pete's Pub have brought the property firmly in the contemporary now. Rooms are spacious with coffee makers, pillow menus, and the option for premium balconies overlooking the neighborhood or courtyard below." - CNT Editors
