Why It Matters

One of only two New Orleans hotels to hold both AAA Four Stars and Four Diamonds simultaneously. The property carries over $10 million of museum-quality art, runs the #1 spa in New Orleans according to USA Today 10 Best, and has been a consistent top-ranked hotel in Louisiana since opening in 1984. The Presidential Suite has hosted European royalty, heads of state, and pop music superstars.

Opened in 1984, The Windsor Court is a 23-story luxury hotel anchored in New Orleans' Central Business District, carrying over $10 million of museum-quality art and a look that owes more to a London private members' club than anything Creole. The rooms are some of the largest in the city — starting at 400 sq ft and going all the way to a 2,780 sq ft presidential penthouse — and the hotel runs the full luxury stack: afternoon tea, a ranked spa, a saltwater rooftop pool, and four distinct dining venues. But it is just far enough from Bourbon Street to feel like a proper escape.
