Location and Access

The hotel is located in the Arts-Warehouse District, which has converted brick warehouses housing innovative restaurants, sleek coffee shops, eclectic boutiques and BBQ joints. The hotel is just steps away from top Big Easy attractions in the Arts District and French Quarter, and convenient to other attractions in the Warehouse and Arts District. It is 15 km from New Orleans Lakefront. You can shop at some of the best antique stores, art galleries, craft shops and classy boutiques on Magazine Street. The Audubon Aquarium of the Americas is situated just a few blocks away.

Hotel Services

Guests can enjoy the flawless service of a professional and courteous staff. The hotel is the perfect location to host your business meetings and special events. A concierge can arrange a bottle of Sparkling wine paired with artisanal chocolates and late check-out for a romantic getaway. Reception of pallets will only occur with notification of pallet being sent prior to shipment. Healthy eating is possible with a welcome tote that doubles as a lunch bag.

“Ideally located near the Convention Center and French Quarter, the newly renovated property stands out for its exceptional staff and culinary focus, especially at the award-winning Rib Room. Families and business travelers alike appreciate the modern amenities and quiet rooms. For me, it's the walkable access to major attractions like the WWII Museum that seals the deal.”
