Le Méridien New Orleans

Le Méridien New Orleans occupies a corner along Poydras Street in the Central Business District, one block from the Mississippi riverfront corridor and an easy walk to the French Quarter. Guests are close to Woldenberg Park, the Audubon Aquarium, and the Outlet Collection at Riverwalk, with the Warehouse Arts District beginning just to the south. The convention center, Caesars Superdome, and Smoothie King Center are a short ride away, and dining clusters on Fulton Street and along Magazine and Camp Streets are nearby.

Access is direct from I-10 onto Poydras Street, with valet service on site. Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport is a straightforward drive along the interstate. Car-free options include the St. Charles Avenue and Canal Street streetcar lines within walking distance, frequent ride shares through the CBD, and easy neighborhood blocks for short walks between meetings, museums, and riverfront paths.

The property presents a modern, art-forward aesthetic consistent with the Le Méridien brand, pairing clean lines and neutral tones with curated pieces in the lobby Hub. A rooftop outdoor pool introduces downtime space above the street, and a compact footprint of meeting rooms supports board sessions and mid-size events. The overall feel is contemporary and functional, with quick connections to both the French Quarter and the convention corridor.
