IHGRestored 1920s political hotel
Once a gathering spot for state politicians, the former Hotel King now centers on a relaxed ground-floor bistro.
What it’s good at
Listed
Guest rooms overhauled down to the studs during a comprehensive 2024 interior renovation.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
The Mississippi River sits a single block away, and downtown restaurants and music venues line the neighboring blocks.
The rooms
Guest rooms were stripped to the studs and rebuilt in 2024, introducing crisp, modern fixtures to the century-old building.
The gym
Treadmills, stationary bikes, and free weights fill the fitness room beside a collegiate graphic mural.
Dogs stay too.
Restaurant
King Bar & Bistro
The bistro mixes cocktails with honey from the rooftop garden and serves Cajun plates beside a floral mosaic.
How it began
Governor Huey P. Long once slipped between political meetings through Peacock Alley, a tiled basement tunnel beneath Lafayette Street.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.

The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
