Windsor Court Hotel

New Orleans


The sparkling lobby, with its portraits of noblemen and their Brittany spaniels, could double as a drawing room in the real Windsor Court. Guest rooms are decked out with elegant classical furniture and come with Italian-marble bathrooms, toile with aristocratic prints, butler’s pantries and Frette linens. There's also a 4500ft spa.

Unwind in the clubby confines of the Polo Club Lounge or return to the lobby for a craft cocktail at the Cocktail Lounge.
