Welcome to the vibrant and bustling city of New Orleans, where the culture, history, and entertainment blend together in perfect harmony. Specifically, the French Quarter, a neighborhood known for its rich heritage and lively atmosphere, is a must-see destination for any visitor to the city.

Located just across Esplanade Avenue in the more residential Marigny neighborhood, the Rue Burgundy Condos offer the perfect balance between proximity to the action and peaceful seclusion. Staying just across the French Quarter boundary not only provides better pricing but also a less noisy and quaint neighborhood that is safe and off the beaten path. The condos are situated at 1429 Burgundy St. just off the picturesque and oak tree-lined Esplanade Avenue, two blocks from the famous Bourbon Street and a few blocks from the recently developed Frenchman Street. This prime location means you don't require a car, taxi, or Uber to stroll into and throughout the Historic French Quarter during your stay, everything you need is just a stone's throw away.
