Pontchartrain Hotel

Hotel Description

A cherished landmark in the historic Garden District of New Orleans, The Pontchartrain Hotel has been catering to discerning guests since the 1920's. To each of these guests, The Pontchartrain offers the subtle ambience of a small European Inn.

In the fashion of Old World elegance combined with Southern hospitality, each of the 118 guestrooms and suites are individually designed and exquisitely furnished, offering the splendor of a bygone era while providing luxurious, modern amenities. Room offerings include cable television, tea and coffee facilities, hairdryer, safe deposit box, iron and ironing board and many added comforts.

Guests can also experience the authentic atmosphere of New Orleans' nightlife at the Bayou Bar. Added in 1947, the Bayou Bar remains a popular meeting place for local professionals as well as guests. Relax with a cocktail and follow it up with a memorable streetcar ride to the world-renowned French Quarter only 2 miles away! The famous St. Charles Avenue Streetcar Line is literally just outside The Pontchartrain's front door.

The setting for a portion of Anne Rice's "The Witching Hour", the Pontchartrain Caf� is the chosen breakfast nook for the city's politicians and civic leaders. The Caf� is currently open only for breakfast and dinner, and both the restaurant and Bayou Bar feature free wireless Internet access.

A landmark social event venue, Pontchartrain has set the stage for New Orleans' most memorable and prestigious weddings, receptions, events, banquets and meetings.
