voco St James Hotel by IHG

The four-star voco St James occupies a restored 19th-century warehouse on Magazine Street in New Orleans' Warehouse District, its cast-iron columns and exposed brick kept visible through the lobby and corridors.

Rooms sit above street level with tall windows original to the building's cotton-trading days. The location suits business travelers and conference-goers: the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center is a ten-minute walk, and the streetcar line at the corner reaches the French Quarter in under fifteen minutes.

Antiques dealers and galleries line Magazine Street directly outside.
