The area
The CBD is the Quarter's business-minded neighbour across Canal Street: office towers, the convention centre end of town, and many of the city's largest hotels, set in converted banks and department stores as often as in new builds. It sleeps quieter than the Quarter and wakes earlier, and the Quarter itself is close enough that the walk is measured in minutes.
Getting around
The French Quarter starts across Canal Street; one CBD hotel on this page puts itself one block from it. The St. Charles and Canal streetcar lines both run through the CBD, covering Uptown in one direction and Mid-City and City Park in the other. Caesars Superdome and the Smoothie King Center stand at the CBD's western edge, a short walk from most addresses here.
Names to know
Long-established hotels in this area, checked on their own official sites. We do not rank them and we state no prices. Where Trip.com sells the property, the card carries a Check availability button to that hotel's page there; a card with no button is one Trip.com does not sell, and it carries no link at all.
