Get charmed by a centrally located NOLA oasis with artistic nods to the city’s past

Located on the mega strip of Canal Street in downtown NOLA, the JW Marriott New Orleans is the place to stay if you’re looking for a cultural oasis in the center of everything. Discover the wonders of a luxury hotel, newly renovated to accommodate modern amenities, that also stays true to traditional New Orleans design with historical elements in a boutique fashion. Each room is decorated with varying art, all of which recognizes a bit of New Orleans history, whether it be a jazz musician or Creole-inspired painting. Dark mahogany and luxe marble dot the hotel’s halls to deliver a comforting luxury stay with endless opportunities to either relax or explore depending on your mood.

Just steps beyond the bustling lobby, guests will find the executive lounge. Pop in at any point to grab a coffee and don’t miss the tasty breakfast spread. The lounge is bilevel, so after a night out in the French Quarter, step up to the second floor where you can enjoy a nightcap while unloading one of many games or books the hotel provides. This cozy area is tucked away just enough to make you feel right at home.
