A LITTLE ABOUT US –

The Bourbon Orleans Hotel is an iconic landmark that captures the exiting energy and rich history of the historic neighborhood which surrounds us. You cannot ask for a more desired location! We are truly in the heart of the Vieux Carre situated just behind the historic St. Louis Cathedral and Jackson Square. Stroll past us and the first thing you might notice is the hotel’s beautifully preserved historic façade. Parisian grandeur, gilded details, and Belle Epoque style dating back to 1817 when the building housed the Orleans Theater and Ballroom. As you step into the grand lobby you walk back in time, following the footsteps of New Orleans elite attending a grand ball or French opera. Legendary events are part of our history, and we are excited to be part of yours!
