Aloft New Orleans Downtown has announced the completion of an interior renovation, including a redesign of the lobby and updates to the guestrooms, guest corridors and fitness center.
With design led by Pinnacle South, Aloft New Orleans’ open-concept lobby was overhauled with the relocation of the front desk area, a new seating area and wallcoverings. Previously, a round circular reception desk in the center of the lobby; the updated front desk now sits on the edge of the space, creating room for a modular lounge. A custom floor-to-ceiling mural illustrating New Orleans’ music scene wraps the three walls that sit between the lobby and adjacent lounge area. Colorful light fixtures and backlit wall features highlight the bright blue, gold and magenta hues used throughout the lobby’s refreshed seating areas.
The hotel’s W XYZ Bar & Lounge sits adjacent to the lobby and reception desk, serving craft cocktails, draft beer and light bites. Live music, overhead LED lighting, a pool table and tabletop games invite visitors into the space to dine or socialize. For grab-and-go dining, the 24-hour Re:fuel market offers a range of self-serve options from breakfast items to coffee and a variety of snacks.
Designed for both leisure and business travelers, the hotel’s 188 renovated guestrooms offer a comfortable place to relax following a day exploring the city. Vibrant pinks, oranges and blues from the lobby were pulled into acrylic artwork inset into the headboards, which sport abstract depictions of New Orleans’ signature architecture. Bright teal carpeting and rich wood flooring was installed along with new lounge and desk chairs, reupholstered benches and colorful pillows that reflect Aloft’s eclectic design aesthetic. The bathrooms also received a facelift with fresh paint and wallcoverings, as well as the guestroom corridors which feature updated ceiling paints and light fixtures.
The hotel’s 24-hour Re:charge Fitness Center was upgraded with new flooring, wallcoverings and paint, while the heated rooftop pool has been updated with new furniture. Groups staying at the hotel can benefit from the hotel’s six event rooms outfitted with catering options, AV equipment and internet, making for seamless hosting and event capabilities.
