International House - Downtown New Orleans

This hotel is a great base from which to explore New Orleans. Ideally positioned in the middle of the Central Business District, it is only two blocks from the French Quarter, one block from the St. Charles streetcar line and three blocks from Harrah’s Casino.  New Orleans’ Downtown and Riverfront attractions are only a short distance away, giving you easy access to world class shopping and dining.

Each of the 117 rooms are beautifully styled and feature spacious bathrooms, architectural artefacts, Sony and Sharp LCD televisions, iHome micro-stereos and Aveda bath amenities. The furnishings, linens and colour palettes have been selected by designer LM Pagano to create sophisticated and soothing spaces for sleep, work and play. Through ties with the local artisans, the hotel offers an eclectic mix of objects - old, new, bought, found and bequeathed - which defines this contemporary New Orleans style.

Visit Loa Bar for a fresh approach to cocktails, a drink form that originated in New Orleans. This downtown New Orleans bar is led by nationally recognized “Spirit Handler” Alan Walter who finds local ingredients such as honeycomb, herbs and native flora to help create each unique drink, served in a vintage glass from his personal collection.
