The National WWII Museum has opened its landmark hotel property, The Higgins Hotel New Orleans, Curio Collection by Hilton. Located in the Arts and Warehouse District of New Orleans, the hotel has 230 rooms, four dining outlets—including the city’s newest rooftop bar—and 18,000 square feet of meeting and event space, all set with an Art Deco design.

The hotel is the first in the state of Louisiana to be part of Hilton’s Curio Collection soft brand.

As an extension of the museum, the hotel sits directly on the campus of the city’s top attraction and tells the story of World War II through the lens of design, decor, era-inspired menus and entertainment.

Architectural firm Nichols Brosch Wurst Wolfe & Associates gave the hotel its 1940s-themed details, drawing inspiration not only from the time period but also from Art Deco buildings found in New Orleans.
