Abstract


The New Orleans Hilton, in the banks of the Mississippi, is the first of a number of hotels planned to make this city the major convention centre in the South of the United States. The building is 30 floor high with 1,200 guest rooms. One of the most interesting features of the hotel is the glazed atrium which, in the lower levels of the U-shaped floor plan reaches nine storey’s high. The interior design by Frank Nicholson is outstanding by the combination of styles creating a unique eclecticism in an attempt to provide each space with an attractive, comforting atmosphere.
