Art lovers will adore The Vendue, where more than 300 pieces of original art hang, rotating artwork can be viewed in common areas, and an artist-in-residence often live paints in the lobby. Located in the heart of the French Quarter, The Vendue fills two clusters of former warehouses—the five at 19 Vendue date back to 1780 and the two at 26 Vendue (located just across the street) stretch back to the 1800s. The interior of the hotel, however, is almost entirely fresh. A mega-popular rooftop bar and casual restaurant add to the modern conveniences of the hotel.
