Welcome to W New Orleans - French Quarter

Let The Bon Temps Roll

Imagine a saxophone’s wail and a cymbal’s sizzle, coursing at the edges of your periphery. Visualize the colors of the city – its green, yellow and purple shine, the antiqued emerald or burnt white wrought iron balconies, its pale golden glow, spilling from doorways. Now, envision reclining in a starlit courtyard, cozy on a couch and nursing a Sazerac, away from the hustle yet right at the center of it all. Welcome to W New Orleans – French Quarter, a hideaway tucked into the middle of the Big Easy’s most famous neighborhood, where jazz, history, and good times flow as freely as a heavy pour. With elevated, high-design rooms inspired by a fusion of masquerade and bayou cues, W New Orleans – French Quarter is a perfect place to recharge from the Quarter’s revelry (and then merrymake all over again). Our hotel is also home to 3rd Block Depot Kitchen + Bar, which serves up southern cuisine and live music, a heated outdoor pool, multiple suite types, a 24/7 gym and so much more. We’ll see you in NOLA.

Our Look and Feel

Remodeled in 2024, W New Orleans – French Quarter’s design celebrates the city’s rich visual history while also underscoring a bit of R&R, away from the jazz and the free-flowing drinks of Bourbon Street (though don’t worry – the French Quarter’s finest bars, restaurants and live music are just steps from our front door). With ample jewel tones, soft tones and textures and cozy, contemporary rooms, our hotel is the perfect place to recharge while also feeling the thrill of something, and somewhere, new.

Sweat It Out

FIT, our gym at W New Orleans – French Quarter, is open 24/7 for hotel guests and features high-tech equipment (including Peloton bikes with a house account). Hangovers, be damned.

WET Deck

Take a Dip

It gets hot in New Orleans during summertime months, but we have a solution: our very own pool, called WET. On the flipside, it’s also open in the winter and heated to a perfect 85 degrees. Open daily from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM. Also, check with the W Insider team on property for special events. Sometimes, we even do “dive in” movies.

Courtyard at Dusk

Sunny Days, Moonlit Nights

Our private courtyard (you could call it our “outdoor living room”) feels miles away from the hustle and bustle of the French Quarter. In reality, it’s about thirty steps away. Soak up the sun or relax beneath the stars while enjoying a Sazerac or a Hurricane.

Fest Stay Ever
