The Warehouse district of New Orleans is home to some of the trendiest homes and hotels in the state, but Maison De La Luz has taken a step back to old country roots and included some Southern Charm in the latest re-design from Atelier Ace. A 1908 building that has been converted to house the 67-room guesthouse, this refuge from the external hustle is filled with antique and bespoke furniture pieces. Other details that add to this feeling of taking a step back in time include hand-embroidered linens, marble bathrooms and elaborate shower and door handles. Craft cocktails add a modern hip feel to the guests-only bar, situated in what was once the library of City Hall, while great tasting tea and coffee are also available in the lounge. All guests receive automatic access to the nearby Ace Hotel’s Three Keys music venue and rooftop pool, if the relaxing environment of Maison De La Luz becomes ‘too quiet’.
