A restored 1928 furniture department store alongside an original 1832 Creole cottage.
What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Rooms come with high ceilings, an underrated benefit of repurposed industrial spaces, as well as a mix of vintage-style fixtures, authentic vintage furniture, and locally sourced artwork.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Lafayette Square is just steps away, and the St. Charles streetcar line runs right past the front doors.
The rooms
Painted wooden armoires stand against high walls draped with charcoal coverlets.
The rooftop pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Brick pavers and green loungers line the heated rooftop pool, set beneath a pergola bar with city views.
The gym
Floor-to-ceiling glass faces the courtyard, lighting treadmills and free weights beside a bold sports mural.
Dogs stay too.
Bar
Seaworthy
Housed in an 1832 Creole cottage, this bar serves wild-caught Gulf oysters beside weathered plaster walls and brick corridors.
Restaurant
Brutto Americano
The ground-floor dining room serves house-extruded pasta and Gulf seafood along tufted green leather banquettes.
How it began
Built in 1928 as a furniture department store, the building was later restored alongside an adjacent 1832 Creole cottage.
