Full accommodation information
Hotel information
Concealed by a stunning Beaux Arts façade, the Ritz-Carlton New Orleans makes a good impression on arrival and follows through right from start to finish.#
Marble communal areas are brought to life with potted plants and flowers, leading into a sun-dappled courtyard with its own fair share of greenery, as well as wrought-iron tables and chairs, trickling water fountains and lanterns lit up at night.
This Canal Street resort is clearly a master in timeless New Orleans elegance, making it a real treat to stay here.
Paying homage to the building’s hundred-year-old heritage, the guestrooms lean towards classic styles though also offer contemporary mod-cons too. Meanwhile, the spa embraces the wider Louisiana region through ingredients such as lemon, coffee and absinthe – there’s even a ‘Voodoo Ritual’ to really get you into the New Orleans spirit, among a hundred other spa treatments!
You can also relish time out in the steam room, hydrotherapy pool, sauna and relaxation rooms, or work out in the gym if the mood takes you while away.
Then there’s the food. Ritz-Carlton New Orleans has just one dining haunt, M Bistro, but that’s all you need when looking at the menu as every time of day spoils you with so many tempting southern dishes, it’s a nice problem to have. This is a chic place too, with a glass roof, polished wood floors, and secret booths for a little more privacy.
After dinner, slide into the Davenport Lounge for cocktails with a side of live Jazz music – the perfect end (or beginning) to an evening in the heart of New Orleans, at the Ritz-Carlton hotel.
