Hotels in Louisiana, United States

Louisiana sits along the Gulf of Mexico, with hot, humid summers (90°F/32°C) and mild winters (60°F/16°C). Spring is the best time to catch Mardi Gras parades in New Orleans or eat crawfish at a Cajun festival in Lafayette, while fall offers cooler weather for kayaking through the Atchafalaya Basin's cypress swamps. Winter brings smaller crowds for exploring the French Quarter's 18th-century ironwork balconies, and summer is prime for airboat rides spotting alligators in the bayous.
