There have been some great discussions about where to stay and what to do in NO recently:
I'm going to New Orleans!
Where to stay in New Orleans?
I am going to New Orleans for Vacation. What should I do?
Here are my New Orleans Suggestions:
I've stayed at Bienville House in the French Quarter several times and enjoyed it, it seemed to be in walking distance of most things -

One restaurant we enjoyed was this one -

I also enjoyed House of Blues and Cafe Du Monde

We took a voodoo tour from this company that was entertaining and there are many others available as well -

The tour included a lot of fascinating history of the area as well as the hauntings and voodoo.
I also went on a great paddleboat cruise back when Texas went to the Sugar Bowl -

The Audubon Park and Anne Rice's house on the St Charles Streetcar line is also nice to see.

And you can go on a swamp tour at the Audubon Zoo -

There's lots of fun shopping too, depending on what you might be looking for. Magazine Street has some unique finds. The French Market is fun -
