Elite Overview

From the editors of Elite Meetings

The Hilton New Orleans Riverside accommodates groups of virtually every size and description with more than 1,600 guest rooms and 130,000 square feet of meeting space. In fact, the New Orleans, Louisiana, icon hosts not only board meetings and small incentive retreats but also the lion's share of major conferences in town. A Crescent City favorite since 1977,
Hilton's 29-story Southeastern flagship rises from a prime location on the banks of the Mississippi River, adjacent to the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center and Riverwalk Marketplace, a short stroll or trolley ride from the central business district and French Quarter. Harrah's Casino lies right across the street.

A recent multiyear, $60-million-plus redesign resulted in a highly efficient lobby area and added a 24-hour full-service business center and Bijoux Turner shop. Guest room enhancements added 37-inch flat-screen TVs, oversize lounge chairs, workstations, and such signature touches as Hilton's Sweet Dreams bedding and PrintOn capabilities, which allow guests to print documents from their rooms. New Main House guest rooms will debut in 2011.

Between meetings and parties, guests take full advantage of the hotel's, veritable city within a city and head to the 90,000-square-foot Health Club by Hilton for tennis, racquetball, swimming, weight training, and PreCor cardio theater. At mealtime, they turn to River Blends Café for Starbucks coffee and pastries, Le Croissant for the Hilton Breakfast, and Drago's Seafood Restaurant, a New Orleans dining institution.
