Every Ace Hotel is unique to the city it is located in. No property looks the same and the Ace Hotel New Orleans embraces the art, music, and food of the Creole heritage. The hotel walls are covered in local art, while local musicians entertain guests at the live music venue, 3 Keys, inside the hotel.

Ace Hotel New Orleans bleeds New Orleans soul and has a spectacular rooftop bar and pool that boast views of the New Orleans Skyline. The historical building, in its day, used to house local musicians. While giving a nod to the past, the guestrooms carry a musical theme throughout with armoires hand-painted by local artists.
