The Periodical: Louisiana

Rising above the Central Business District, this modern condo is the perfect base for couples and solo travellers. You'll find it on Magazine Street, surrounded by a lively string of cafes, shops and eateries. Just footsteps from Canal Street's transport links and a seven-minute stroll from Bourbon Street, the neon-lit gateway to the magnificent French Quarter, you're in a convenient location for exploring the city.

We love this home's industrial loft aesthetic. Nestled in an eighteenth-century building once home to a dry goods store and warehouse, it boasts a winning combination of original charm and contemporary comforts. Inside, it's all high ceilings, exposed brick walls and striking timber beams, creating a light-filled and inviting atmosphere primed for relaxation. Spend mornings roosted at the dining table, sipping quick coffees before slipping out for breakfast. While the modern kitchen is fully-equipped for home cooking, no trip to Nola would be complete without tasting the local cuisine.

The real highlight of this home is its access to a rooftop terrace. Boasting a spacious sitting area and panoramic views of the city skyline, this is the perfect place to spend balmy evenings, watching the sunset before a night of cocktails and jazz.
