Why Concert-goers love it

You're right in the middle of the action—close to multiple music venues, yet the rooms offer a peaceful retreat thanks to soundproofing and thoughtful design. With a 24-hour front desk, flexible early check-out at 5:00 AM, and concierge service, it's easy to tailor your stay around showtimes.

Sarah Sat, 9 August 2025

Very good

Liked: Location is amazing in a historic area of town, right near Fritzels jazz club which was one of my favourites in NO. The staff at the hotel could not have been more welcoming and helpful. If I return the large rooms downstairs looked stunning for two people also, my room was also perfect for one.
