The 36 Most Anticipated Hotel Openings of 2021
Virgin will bring its cool aesthetic to New Orleans this summer with a new-build hotel designed in partnership with locally based Logan Killen Interiors. (The brand is keeping busy this year: Its flagship New York property, a collaboration between Stantec and MARKZEFF, is set to debut in the winter.) The property will reveal distinctly New Orleans moments via colorful, tropical motifs that mix with Virgin’s playful and approachable style. Joining brand signatures like the Commons Club restaurant and bar will be the Funny Library coffee shop, a pool and lounge that crown the property, and 238 Art Deco-inspired guestrooms (or, in Virgin lingo, Chambers).
