About the host
Your host
Nestled in the heart of New Orleans’ historic Treme neighborhood, Louis Park Hotel sits on land steeped in nearly three centuries of history. Originally part of a large French Concession established in 1725, the property’s roots trace back to Chevalier Charles de Morand, whose brickyard and plantation laid the groundwork for what would become a vibrant cultural hub. Over the years, this land passed through generations of influential families, including free people of color and Creole entrepreneurs who shaped Treme into the first free African American neighborhood in the United States.
By the early 19th century, the city of New Orleans acquired and subdivided the plantation, paving the way for the construction of Creole cottages like those found at Louis Park Hotel. The “Dolliole Cottages” were built in 1821 by a family of skilled carpenters who brought life to the architectural heritage that defines the property today. With its iconic bricked facade, open gallery, and historic detailing, the hotel blends the charm of its storied past with modern luxury and comfort.
Just steps from Armstrong Park and three blocks from the French Quarter, Louis Park Hotel celebrates New Orleans' rich heritage, offering guests a unique connection to the birthplace of jazz and a tranquil retreat amidst the city’s vibrant energy. Whether staying in guesthouses named after jazz legends or exploring Treme’s cultural legacy, guests are invited to experience history, hospitality, and the soul of New Orleans.
