"Arriving through a private lobby framed by two wrought-iron staircases, I found Maison Metier to be an intensely intimate, all-private hotel in the Warehouse District that lives the Parisian guest-house mantra: red chairs dripping in gold tassels, a French-style breakfast in an airy restaurant, cocktails in a warm parlor, and the novelty of a secret bookcase entrance that grants guests a private alcove where drinks are delivered through a hidden compartment." - The MICHELIN Guide
"Going to a divey bar for some live music and a watery gin and tonic is great and all, but if you’re looking for something a little swankier, try Bar Métier. It’s in The Warehouse District, a mere ten minutes away from Bourbon Street, but the floor-to-ceiling red drapes, creative cocktails, and towering bookshelves feel a world away. It’s a great place to start your night while you plan your next move over a martini or whatever frozen cocktail they have." - megan braden perry, zella palmer
"Opened in New Orleans within the past 12 months and noted among Hyatt's "hotly anticipated properties," this property is one of 28 upscale hotels the company launched over the prior year and contributes to Hyatt's broader push to add 50 more luxury hotels by 2026." - Mae Hamilton Mae Hamilton Mae Hamilton is a digital editor covering hotels and lifestyle news at Travel + Leisure.

"A layered, tactile, kaleidoscope like this—from pro outfit Ace—could only exist in the Big Easy. ‘New Orleans is such an amalgam of culture and languages and histories,’ says Kelly Sawdon of Atelier Ace. ‘It’s rich and complicated and somewhat messy in a beautiful way.’ The address is Ace’s second in the city, and a more intimate, flamboyant and narrative number than its more formulaic sibling across the street. A collaboration between Atelier Ace and Los Angeles-based Shamshiri Studio, it’s taken over a former City Hall annex built in 1908 and filled it with a traveling steamer trunk of curiosities. The lobby, with its twin staircases, Art Deco lights and front desk straight out of The Grand Budapest Hotel, is Golden Age Europe. The sitting room, an Egyptian adventure with hieroglyphic artwork, while the breakfast room (huge windows, parquet floors and custom-drawn wall coverings) feels like a Parisian bistro for lingering over café noir and beignets. And in the bedrooms, vivid-blue bed frames and navy-piped white linens are layered with curious details, from coffee tables etched with zodiac symbols to sculpted snake handles slithering through shower doors. Finally, a place that artfully distills the bohemian hedonism and mysticism of New Orleans in a gloriously designed jewel box." - Paul Oswell
"A quieter, more private 67-room refuge housed in a former City Hall annex, this boutique property limits its common areas to overnight guests and encourages visitors to use sister-property amenities such as the Ace’s rooftop pool and Seaworthy’s casual seafood offerings. There are typically no public Mardi Gras events on-site, though the hotel has been known to surprise guests in the past with perks like complimentary grandstand parade seats." - Lyndsey Matthews
