The Marquee, Ascend Hotel Collection - A 17-story theater district hotel with rooftop pool and themed suites

Located in New Orleans' historic theater district, this New Orleans hotel rises 17 stories above the vibrant streets, featuring 90+ villas with one, two, and three-bedroom configurations. The Marquee rooms include kitchenettes with refrigerators, microwaves, and private bathrooms, while open floor plans showcase modern furnishings and lighting fixtures. An augmented reality app brings Storyville characters to life on suite headboards, and every villa comes equipped with guitars for impromptu jam sessions. The rooftop features a swimming pool and fire pit, while the second floor houses a fitness center with state-of-the-art equipment and a Speakeasy Owner's Lounge. The Marquee, Ascend Hotel Collection sits steps from Canal Street and Saenger Theatre, with the French Quarter just 0.5 miles away. Key attractions within 1 mile include The National WWII Museum, Jackson Square, and New Orleans Riverwalk Shopping Center.

Pros

Augmented reality-enabled headboards create an interactive experience

Motion-activated paintings welcome guests on each floor

Guitars provided in every villa for musical entertainment

Rooftop fire pit offers night-time city views

Cons

Limited dining options within the hotel itself

“This hotel strikes me as a smart choice near the French Quarter, with comfortable suites and the huge advantage of on-site parking. I noted the decor and balcony views get high marks; it feels like having your own apartment. The friendly staff can definitely make a difference.”
