Hotel Overview

Tucked beside the vibrant French Quarter and just off Canal Street, the Best Western Plus St. Christopher Hotel, New Orleans, Louisiana, offers a front-row seat to the heart of the city, a historic boutique hotel of exposed brick and Southern charm, with complimentary breakfast, a 24-hour front desk, free Wi-Fi, a cozy lobby lounge, and a business center. The hotel welcomes pets.

Steps from the streetcar lines, the setting puts the museums, music, and nightlife of the Quarter within an easy walk, well placed for Mardi Gras, Jazz Fest, and a weekend of food and culture. The lobby lounge is a fine place to unwind after a day out.

New Orleans is a city like no other, where the French Quarter's wrought-iron balconies, the brass bands of Bourbon Street, and the cathedral on Jackson Square set a rhythm all their own, with the riverfront and the French Market close by and the streetcars rolling out to the oak-lined avenues. After dark the Quarter fills with music drifting from every doorway.
