Grand, Elegant, and Inviting —
The Columns offers something for everyone. We offer a unique New Orleans blend of modern amenities and antique decor. Built in 1883 and listed in the National Register of Historic Places, the Columns is located in the beautiful upper Garden District in New Orleans, Louisiana. Conveniently overlooking the St. Charles streetcar line, the Columns is minutes away from the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center, the historic French Quarter, and many shopping districts.
The Columns Hotel, designed by one of New Orleans’ great architects, Thomas Sully, is the only remaining example of a large group of Italianate houses that he designed in the late 1880s.
The surviving interior features are considered among the grandest known in any late-nineteenth century Louisiana residence. One of the most dramatic features is the mahogany stairwell which rises to meet an extraordinary square domed stained glass skylight in a stylized sunburst motif.
The Victorian Lounge was once the main dining room and features a remarkable mantle piece and overmantel, and the original built-in breakfront. This piece is of particular historical interest because it is the only surviving piece of its kind in any residence designed by Thomas Sully.
On behalf of the Owners and our Management staff, we would like to take the time to thank you all for choosing The Columns and we look forward to seeing you soon. Thanks for your business.
