NOPSI Hotel, New Orleans

What NOPSI Hotel, New Orleans does

NOPSI Hotel is a 217-room luxury boutique hotel operating from the nine-story, 1927 former headquarters of New Orleans Public Service, Inc. at 317 Baronne Street in New Orleans' Central Business District. The property opened in 2017 after the building was declared a historic landmark in 2011 by the Historic District Landmarks Commission and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is a member of Historic Hotels of America. The hotel preserves original architectural features including terrazzo floors, stone-top counters, and a 24-foot crane and tracks in the ballroom, and operates 12 distinct room and suite categories ranging from a 374 sq ft Standard King to a 1,100 sq ft Power Suite penthouse with a private wraparound rooftop terrace.

The hotel generates revenue through five streams: room revenue (its primary stream, with 60 spacious suites and tiered pricing by category), food and beverage across three on-site outlets (Public Service restaurant under Executive Chef Adam Korbel, Above the Grid rooftop bar and pool, and Henry's Gin Bar), event and meeting space rental across 14,000+ sq ft including a 4,000 sq ft Dryades Ballroom for up to 350 guests, poolside services including day beds and cabanas (monetized via a ResortPass partnership), and in-room dining. Distribution runs through direct booking on a Synxis-powered website, phone reservations, OTA distribution, the Preferred Hotels & Resorts LVX Collection network and I Prefer loyalty program, and a dedicated corporate/group events team.

NOPSI serves four customer segments: luxury leisure travelers (primary), business travelers and corporate groups, wedding and social event guests, and families and groups. The hotel is managed by Crescent Hotels & Resorts under a third-party management agreement, holds Preferred Hotels & Resorts LVX Collection and Historic Hotels of America memberships, maintains ADA and WCAG 2.2 AA compliance, and reports approximately 53 employees. Its go-to-market is predominantly direct-to-consumer via its own booking engine and phone, supplemented by OTA and Preferred Hotels global distribution.
