Kimpton Hotel Fontenot
501 Tchoupitoulas St., New Orleans, LA, USA, 70130
About us
New Orleans has been built on a musical legacy equal parts traditional and improvisational - Kimpton Hotel Fontenot will be paying homage to this rich history with a reimagined hotel on the corner of Poydras and Tchoupitoulas streets. With a clean and modern aesthetic accentuated by soft colors, bright and airy spaces, and irreverent touches, Kimpton Hotel Fontenot is riffing on the definition of a Big Easy hotel to create something new, offering a serene oasis in the heart of the city. But it still honors the area's over-the-top style with a few surprises. Enjoy the start of your evening with a craft cocktail in our Peacock Room, before grabbing dinner at King Brasserie. Grab. Start your morning with a quick bite at Gospel Coffee & Booze Treats to indulge in a fresh cup of coffee. If you have morning time to linger, enjoy a scrumptious breakfast at King Brasserie From The Hotel Fontenot, you can walk to hot spots like the Arts District, the convention center, and the Mercedes Benz Superdome. And, of course, we're right next to the French Quarter, where you can laissez les bon temps rouler to your heart's content.

American Ghost Walks
Multi-city
Ghosts and fun bring your team closer together.
Guided experiences to multiple haunted locations. Your group will be treated to a ghostly experience during a 90-120 minute walking tour, 3-hour bus excursion, or pick a custom experience with food and alcohol options or a family-oriented experience as well.
Your team has been on outings before, but this time they've asked you to find something different and exciting for everybody.
When looking for specific venues to host your group, it can be quite challenging. And the last thing you want is another work event that feels more like a chore than a fun activity.
Your team doesn’t want to:
- Throw any more axes
- Go bowling again
- Sit bored at a large group dinner
Experience The City's Haunted Past with Your Entire Team
On this special evening, you and your team will have the perfect opportunity to get to know each other better! Your guide is well-versed in local culture, so you can expect a fun, engaging, and spooky event.
