Historic and effortlessly hip, Hotel Saint Vincent is a Lower Garden District gem.

What always calls me back, though, is its sounds.

The building that now houses the Saint Vincent was constructed in the 1860s, during the Civil War.

Today, the property still maintains much of its original, historic charmbut with a sultry modern twist.

Here’s what it’s like to stay at Hotel Saint Vincent.

Think salmon-colored velvet curtains, Carrara marble countertops, and cherry red bathroom tiles paired with psychedelic wallpaper.

If you’re feeling thirsty, you’re in luck.

San Lorenzo is serviced by the Paradise Lounge, which doubles as the lobby bar.

The late night hours quickly arrive after a few sazeracs and lively conversation with the bartender.

Activities and Experiences

The highlight of Hotel Saint Vincent is arguably its pool.

Its prime location puts you steps away from historic mansions, low-key bars, and plenty of dining options.

Some of my favorites in the area include breakfast spotSurreys, the award-winningDakar NOLA, and French brasserieMaMou.

Lastly, I will never leave New Orleans without a taste of UptownsHeard Dat Kitchen.
