The building, set around a courtyard, feels like an English country house hotel, complete with genteel afternoon tea and an art collection featuring originals by Reynolds and Gainsborough.
EXPERIENCE
They have been called "one of the most flawlessly elegant hotels in the world" and have reaped hundreds of prestigious awards since opening eighteen years ago. In the pristine haven of the Windsor Court Hotel, the discriminating traveler well appreciates a wonderful night's sleep - from time immemorial the main purpose of a hostelry. They are dedicated to that promise.
The accommodations successfully combine traditional English decor with modern amenities, luxuriant accouterments and superb service. They are soothingly appointed with soft, subtle colors and comfortable upholstered furnishings. The location is well removed from the noise and bustle of the entertainment district, although within easy access. They are one of the only hotels in the city to provide so many luxury suites - of the 322 deluxe rooms, 266 are suites - including only one Penthouse Suite. The Penthouse Suite also offers access to the private club lounge featuring breakfast, snacks, evening hour d'oeuvres, cocktails and private concierge.
All accommodations are unusually spacious with either a private balcony or bay window overlooking the Mississippi River or the city skyline. Some of the suites have two bedrooms, and there are two spectacular penthouses on the 22nd floor with their own landscaped terraces.
