Hostmark Hospitality Opens New Orleans' Higgins Hotel & Conference Center
12/12/2019
The Higgins Hotel & Conference Center, located in New Orleans’ Arts & Warehouse District, is the latest property to launch in the Hostmark Hospitality Group’s portfolio. The 230-room boutique hotel, part of the Curio Collection by Hilton, is directly across the street from the National WWII Museum, the top-rated attraction in the city. The hotel’s art deco design features the latest in high-end hotel amenities. Guest rooms include era-inspired crafted furniture, specialty suites that pay homage to past presidents, as well as I-tablets and Victrola record players. A first-floor executive lounge houses Gen. George Patton’s grand piano next to state-of-the-art electronics for watching live events at the museum. Countless black and white photographs depicting aspects of the war and New Orleans in the 1940s are throughout the hotel. The name of the hotel reflects the contributions of New Orleans’ shipbuilder, Andrew Higgins, who designed and built more than 20,000 Higgins Boats, which were used in every major amphibious assault of World War II including the D-Day invasion of Normandy in 1944. A portrait of Higgins hangs in the hotel lobby along with blueprints of the vessels he built. “For the last three years, our team at Hostmark has been consulting and advising the National WWII Museum development group via a technical service agreement,” said Ron Vlasic, CHA, COO, Hostmark Hospitality Group. “The hotel offers guests a truly unique experience, including the opportunity to share the story of a loved one’s service in WWII by underwriting a guestroom. We’re proud of the fact that the hotel supports the museum educationally and financially to help in its mission of sharing the story of America’s involvement in the war.” Guests have four era-inspired dining options, including The Higgins’ signature restaurant, Cafe Normandie, which features sophisticated French-influenced fare; Kilroy’s lobby bar, named after the iconic wartime cartoon character, features cocktails and bar bites with a Southern twist; Rosie’s on the Roof honors women who volunteered for wartime service and offers stunning views of the city skyline; and Provisions’ lobby marketplace, which features grab-and-go house-made treats. More than 18,000 square feet of high-tech meeting and event space make it the ideal location for meetings of every size and scope. Amenities include 14 meeting spaces that can be configured to exact specifications, professional meeting and event planning, full onsite catering, advanced audio/visual technology, and customized décor options. The hotel offers exclusive curated packages and special offers in conjunction with the WWII museum To reserve your stay, visit www.higginshotelnola.com.
