Loft 523

Loft 523 A joyful tribute to creativity with sophisticated downtown loft-style hotel rooms and penthouses.

Loft523 celebrates the power of quintessentially great loft-style design to uplift the human spirit. Sexy, sophisticated, sublime, open space sets the design muse free among architectural artifacts, modern electronics, contemporary furnishings and spacious limestone bathrooms.

“Few spaces,” says Suzanne Slesin, “offer such a spectacular range for making a design statement than lofts do. With structural columns, gleaming white walls, patinaed brick, windows with unexpected views and a shadow casting web of sprinkler pipes, lofts are the inventive interior design laboratories of our time.” We agree completely and have incorporated uncommon design elements into this former dry-goods warehouse. From Modern Fan Co.’s 52-inch opal-glass Whirlybird ceiling fan to legendary photographer/painter/Renaissance man Mariano Fortuny’s acclaimed 1907 Fortuny lamp to Agape’s awe-inspiring “Spoon” tubs to Vola’s elegant bath accessories and king beds by Mondo, Loft 523 is a joyful celebration of design and the emotional response it elicits. The 16 lofts and 02 penthouses are served by sister restaurant Ramba and the Hotel’s popular bar, Le Phare. With this guest experience, we hope you too are inspired by the words of futurist Ann Cutler when she expressed, “One-hundred percent quality, real service, unique design, style – these are the product values that deliver human values which never change: love, pride, joy, the family, self esteem.”

Architectural artifacts. Contemporary accommodations. Spacious limestone bathrooms. A design ensemble of this time, yet distilled with a keen sense of this historic place. Like New Orleans itself, one finds here a hint of mystery, concealing and then revealing key elements in unexpected ways.

Hammered copper, exposed brick, wooden beams, soaring ceilings... all flooded in natural light. Loft living at its best, on a sleepy street in the heart of New Orleans' Central Business District.
