Highs & Lows
-
Peter & Paul hotel’s design is ridiculously cool – the fact that it’s set in a former church, schoolhouse, and rectory just adds to a really singular ambiance.
-
The bar has one of the coolest interiors I’ve seen in a long time – there’s a tropical, fern-laden wicker theme, with an impactful bar-back that undulates up the wall and overhead.
-
The church – For now, a blank slate waiting for stories to be written. The reconstruction was elegantly done, and it has this palpable sense of past debauche, which I adore. Can imagine a spectacular fashion event in that space…
-
The rooms are all different, adorned with fantastic details throughout.
-
The branding is off the charts cool. Guests find a book bound like a hymnal, with information on local recommendations and gorgeous pieces of literature about New Orleans. The bright yellow fits perfectly with everything – it’s seamless and elegant as hell.
-
In the Elysian Bar is the room where guests take breakfast, coffee, and lunch throughout the day. The room is soaring and grand, feeling authentic to the setting and littered with biophelia and gingham, which resonates throughout the hotel.
