Le Pavillon sits one block east of Homewood Suites and offers guests the opulence of a grand hotel in a building that was built in 1907. It is one of several buildings in the city listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Although the property was renovated in 1970, special attention was given to making the interior design as authentic as possible. Marble railing and floors are combined with massive crystal chandeliers. The property is decorated with genuine Italian columns, and guest rooms and common areas feature antiques and artwork from all parts of the world. Guests can dine in the Crystal Room, which offers contemporary American cuisine, or take advantage of around-the-clock room service.
The Whitney Wyndham is approximately equidistant between the Superdome and the river and offers easy access to Lafayette Square. The hotel is located in the historic Whitney Bank building, and the two businesses share space with separate entrances. Half of the old bank lobby has been transformed into Li'l Dizzy's cafe. One of the two original vaults was converted into a dining room and is available for private parties. The hotel occupies the upper floors of the building, and travelers sensitive to cigarette smoke will appreciate the fact that all rooms are designated nonsmoking. Just a half block to the south is Lafayette Square, where visitors can enjoy free outdoor concerts in one of the oldest parks in the city.
