As the VIP box seat to a true New Orleans experience, guests find the best of the Big Easy all under one roof. The resort-style, luxury property is home to several dining and entertainment venues, offering world-renowned fine dining at Restaurant R’evolution, authentic Louisiana cuisine at Desire Oyster Bar, nightly live music at The Jazz Playhouse and more.
