Rates start at $149 or 36,000 Hilton Honors points per night. Rosie's on the Roof pays homage to the women on the homefront of World War II and has one of the best views of downtown New Orleans of any hotel in the city. Kilroy's Bar & Lounge off the lobby plays 1940s music while you imbibe a cocktail. The wartime inspiration continues at the Higgins Hotel's bars and restaurants.

Spacious suites are worth the splurge for extra living areas and features like terraces and original artwork. Upstairs, guests are treated to rooms and suites with a 1940s-inspired design scheme with art deco headboards and panoramic city views (guests looking for a little more quiet can choose a room on the courtyard side of the hotel). You'll also find retro decor and chandeliers throughout the lobby.

In a prime location near the National World War II Museum (which clearly inspired the design team at the hotel), the Higgins Hotel provides an artistic first impression with a floor-to-ceiling mural depicting wartime factory workers and the New Orleans skyline. The art deco aesthetic throughout the Higgins Hotel gives off a yesteryear vibe as you approach the check-in desk - and we couldn't love this hotel more for that.
