The Whitney - A Wyndham Historic Hotel

The Whitney Hotel is located in the Central Business District. For leisure travelers and others who want to cut loose, this nationally registered landmark stands a half mile from the French Quarter, boisterous Bourbon Street and close to the shops, street performers, artisans and soothsayers of Jackson Square.

The registration desk includes the original teller cases. On the dining front, the Whitney is home to the Getaway Cafe, offering traditional American fare.

Decorated in traditional French themes, pecan and caramel colors and painted walls rather than standard wallpaper, the 93 guestrooms feature raised beds with pillow top mattresses, Bath and Body Works bath amenities, custom bed linens, work desks, ergonomic chairs and shower massages.
