1. The light issue was bigger than you think.
2. New Orleans isn't unique in being able to host a great Super Bowl. Seattle, San Francisco, Denver are all awesome cities that haven't hosted in a while. And since everything went fine with NY/NJ the NFL could easily start looking at colder venues. Minnesota is probably getting 2018.
The light issue won't ever happen again. You think that the GNOSF is going to let something like that shroud getting the SB here in the future. It happened, steps were taken, it won't happen again.
2. New Orleans IS unique in that all the hotels, media areas, and the venue are in the same spot. There is no other city than can boast that. NONE
SF - stadium is in Santa Clara, far from SF
Seattle - hasn't hosted and would be worthy
Minnesota - while you paint a rosy picture, going outside in Minneapolis in winter is vastly different than going outside in winter in NY/NJ. They were below freezing for about 80 straight days this winter. That sounds miserable as hell.

There are plenty of US cities where there are both hotels and a stadium located close together

Forgot about the new stadium for the 49ers. But yeah, Seattle is in play, Denver is in play, and a host of others. Minneapolis is cold but it's unique with the sky tunnels - you don't have to go outside that often. Hell, it wouldn't surprise me if the NFL decided to go crazy and have it in London one year. And I think this years Super Bowl showed the NFL that fans are willing to buy tickets to colder venues. That opens up a lot of doors for the NFL.
