Hotel Information: Favored by travelers with a romantic itinerary, this New Orleans hotel is pure old-world charm. Historic French Market Inn's ancient brick façade—with its exposed metal rods evidencing the effort in maintaining it to the present day—opens into a compact lobby decorated with columns, period paintings, and chandeliers. The lobby's granite floor contrasts with the exposed brick walls, and a narrow passage leads to the vast courtyard.

Amenity highlights: The Historic French Market Inn's charm is particularly evident in its sprawling courtyard, which meanders around nine individual buildings. The courtyard is also lined with fountains, several of them built on deep wells that are as old as the 19th-century buildings. There's also a bar, named for a legendary local voodoo figure.

Insider tip: Jackson Square, three blocks from this New Orleans hotel, is where the Louisiana Purchase was signed in 1803. Now a landscaped park surrounded by a pedestrian mall, the lively area features shops, galleries, restaurants, street performers, and artists at work.
