Hotel Features. With its colonnaded, second story lobby decorated with antiques and fine art, the nine story Iberville Suites shares the historic, 1908 Beaux Arts Maison Blanche Building with the Ritz Carlton Hotel.

Fine dining is available at Melange, which serves classic Creole dishes and features live jazz nightly. Turn of the century antiques are set against accents in pale green and gold at the On Trois lounge that offers afternoon tea on select days of the week. Gentle sounds of jazz float through The Library which features a fireplace. Complimentary buffet style continental breakfasts are served in the grand lobby of the hotel.
Guestrooms. This property's 230 two room suites feature separate bedrooms and sitting areas, antique style furnishings and sofa beds. Beds feature pillowtop mattresses and 300 thread count sheets. Refrigerators are provided. Rooms include CD players, and high speed wired and wireless Internet access for a fee.

Expert Tip. Although all other areas of the Iberville Suites are smoke free, The Library, part of the Ritz Carlton property, houses a private smoking club which is the second of only two such venues within the company. Also, each month, Iberville Suites guests are invited to join Ritz Carlton guests for tastings and seminars hosted by the Spirits Sommelier, the Whiskey Ambassador or the Cognac Concierge. Charter memberships and day passes are available for a fee.
