About the hotel

Maison Métier occupies a six-story, 1908 former City Hall Annex in downtown New Orleans’ Warehouse District. Its 67 guestrooms and suites are arranged around a private Living Room, with a collection of commissioned art, vintage objects and bespoke furnishings giving the guesthouse a residential, layered character. Salon Salon, reached from the Living Room through a discreet entrance, serves cocktails and French Creole–influenced New Orleans cooking. The hotel sits near Lafayette Square, with downtown museums, restaurants and nightlife within reach.

What real people are saying.

Reddit excerpts · separate from Rex’s editorial judgment

One guest found the room more attractive than its photos suggested, noting high ceilings, a spacious couch and lounge area, a bath, and a large shower.

Discussion is limited; these accounts offer a glimpse rather than a broad verdict.

“At any rate, pictures don’t do this place justice because it is even more beautiful. The room had high ceilings, a nice large couch/lounge area, bath, and large shower.”
