I loved NOLA and want to go back! I spent 8 weeks there during the summer of 2007 as an AmeriCorps VISTA. I didn't stay in a hotel there, I lived in a dorm at the University of New Orleans, so I wish I could give you a recommendation on a hotel, but I can't.

You MUST go to Cafe Du Monde for Beignets (French donuts). There's also a really good seafood restaurant on Bourbon St. called The Bourbon House. The Garden District is beautiful, and its really nice to walk up Magazine St. looking in all the shops and little restaurants down there too.
