The Roosevelt New Orleans, A Waldorf Astoria Hotel
Such icons as Louis Armstrong once played in the opulent Blue Room at The Roosevelt New Orleans. It’s a wonderful world for anyone staying at this hotel after a $175-million-dollar, art-deco restoration. The Roosevelt is just off Canal Street, a block from the French Quarter. The Waldorf Astoria Spa, rooftop pool and garden terrace all offer an urban oasis. Chef John Besh's award-winning Domenica restaurant presents a fine touch of Italy, while Teddy's Café is reminiscent of a Parisian patisserie. All Virtuoso guests receive Personal Concierge treatment from the in-house Personal Concierge team, to make their stay truly bespoke.
