The newly built extended-stay Element New Orleans Downtown has opened in the city’s Central Business District.
Operating under the Element by Marriott brand, the property will serve both short-term and long-term guests. It is located at 221 O’Keefe Avenue in New Orleans, La., within walking distance of Canal Street and less than one mile from the Caesars Superdome and Smoothie King Center, with access to the French Quarter and the city’s streetcar lines.
The hotel includes 216 guestrooms and suites, each unit featuring a fully equipped kitchen, separate living and workspace areas and eco-conscious design elements with natural light. The accommodations are intended for business travelers, families and leisure guests staying downtown. Rooms include Westin Heavenly mattresses as part of the brand’s wellness-focused design approach.
Amenities at the property span complimentary daily breakfast, a fitness center, bicycle rentals and complimentary Wi-Fi. The hotel offers 624 square feet of flexible meeting space, designed for small meetings and gatherings of up to 40 guests.
Bentley Legacy Group will manage the hotel and oversee daily operations and guest services. “We’re proud to manage Element New Orleans Downtown in a city known for its hospitality, culture and energy,” said Matt Berge, president of Bentley Legacy Group. “This property reflects a thoughtful approach to design and guest comfort, offering travelers a true home-away-from-home experience in a prime New Orleans location.”
The property’s opening introduces an additional Element by Marriott hotel to the market, expanding the brand’s presence in New Orleans and providing a new choice for travelers seeking flexible accommodations and on-site amenities in the downtown area.
