The Amelia's strategic location sets the stage for an unforgettable New Orleans adventure. At just a stone's throw away, iconic attractions beam with life. You'll be staying steps away from the alluring Magazine St., the historic Garden District, and Lafayette Cemetery No.1. Catch an RTA Streetcar to traverse the city in style or wander into the French Quarter for an immersive cultural experience.



As we head into Spring, there's no better time to experience the blooming Southern charm of New Orleans. Celebrate life at world-renowned festivals such as Jazz Fest, and enjoy the Easter Parade on Bourbon Street. Head to French Quarter Festival, or take part in the Memorial Day Weekend events. Come Juneteenth, commemorate the day at several cultural venues in the city. As Independence Day nears, the Mississippi River lights up with fireworks, making for a thrilling spectacle.



Our property is conveniently located near some of the best bars and restaurants in NOLA. NOLA Distillery, the Pigeon & Whale, and The Vintage come highly recommended for a good time with friends, while dining delights await you at our favorite spots, Shaya and Lilette, among others.
