The Barnett - JDV by Hyatt
New Orleans, Louisiana
Warehouse District
Vibe
The French Deco lobby doubles as a community gathering space, while Good Measure draws listeners for free evening concerts.
“Art Deco music house”
A French Deco lobby extends the character of the nine-story Art Deco building.
Barnett’s 1928 furniture store survives as an Art Deco hotel, its original commercial identity remembered.
Good Measure hosts free evening concerts, with standing room and first-come seating.
Beside Lafayette Square in the Warehouse District, with galleries nearby and the French Quarter walkable.
Rooms

Eat & drink
Brutto Americano brings Gulf seafood and handmade pasta to dinner, while All Good serves beignets, quiche and coffee.
The neighborhood

The app
This is one hotel. The app has every one we rate, in your pocket, for the whole trip.
Our shorthand
What makes a hotel special, how well they pull it off, and what it feels like outside the door.
How well they pull it off
Extremely rare. Sets the global standard.
Brilliant execution. And we’re picky.
They did this well. You’ll notice.
A defining trait. Makes the hotel what it is.
The eight vibes
Architecture and interiors lead. There’s a creative vision at work.
The guest is conspicuously well cared for. Requests met before they’re made.
Rooted in place. Local character runs through the whole stay.
Energy and scene. Where the city goes out, whether or not it’s sleeping here.
A building with history. The story of the place is part of the stay.
Built around feeling better. Rest, sweat, soak, spa.
A hotel the city grew up with. Same rituals, same regulars.
A world of its own. No reason to leave the property.
Scene — what’s outside the door
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
A place apart: the property is the destination.
