W New Orleans, hotel in New Orleans, United States
W New Orleans is a contemporary hotel in the French Quarter, located one block south of Bourbon Street. It features a bright lobby with large windows overlooking the lively street, comfortable modern rooms decorated with jazz and tarot motifs, and a restaurant called SoBou serving Creole and Cajun-inspired cuisine.
The hotel was built as a modern establishment within the historic French Quarter neighborhood. Originally, the city had two W hotels, but the larger location was rebranded as a different property years ago, leaving this one as the original W New Orleans.
