Memoir Residential: A Home Away from Home in New Orleans

Common House Rooftop bar at Sunset

When I first checked into Memoir Residential, nestled in the heart of New Orleans, I had no idea it would become a highlight of my travel experiences. This luxurious and stylish sanctuary offers the comfort of a home with the convenience of a hotel, making it an ideal retreat for travelers seeking more than just a place to stay.

A Blend of Comfort and Style

Memoir Residential is the perfect combination of Airbnb-style accommodations with hotel-level amenities. Spacious and tastefully decorated, the rooms create a homely yet luxurious atmosphere. Unlike traditional hotel rooms, which can often feel cramped, Memoir offers a space where you can truly stretch out, relax, and feel at home.

I spent two delightful days here, enjoying the freedom of having separate living areas, cozy furnishings, and thoughtful design elements that make it much more than a typical hotel experience.

Exclusive Access to The Common House

One of Memoir's standout features is its connection to The Common House, an exclusive members-only social club. Guests of Memoir enjoy full access to this vibrant space, which includes co-working areas, study nooks, a rooftop bar, and a restaurant. The Common House exudes charm and sophistication, making it a perfect place to unwind or connect with others.

The people I met there—both staff and members—were incredibly welcoming. Whether you're enjoying a quiet moment or mingling with others, the aesthetically pleasing environment and community vibe make this experience unforgettable.

Unwind with Enchanting Rooftop Views

Rooftop Pool

Memoir's rooftop is the epitome of relaxation and elegance. From the stunning views at sunset to the inviting rooftop pool, it’s a haven for those who appreciate beauty and tranquility.

One evening, I decided to take a night swim under the stars. While the water was chilly, the experience of floating in the rooftop pool with the city lights as a backdrop was simply magical. Afterward, I retreated to the comfort of my bed, which provided some of the best sleep I've had all year.

Fitness and More

Memoir caters to fitness enthusiasts with its well-equipped gym. The spacious layout and variety of equipment make it ideal for keeping up with your workout routine while traveling.

But Memoir isn’t just about fitness. The Common House offers a plethora of amenities, from study spaces to a buzzing rooftop bar. Whether you’re catching up on work or enjoying a leisurely evening, Memoir has you covered.

A Culinary Haven

Dining at Memoir is another experience to savor. The onsite restaurant serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner, while the rooftop bar and poolside service provide ample opportunities to enjoy a drink or two. Whether you’re a coffee enthusiast or a cocktail connoisseur, Memoir’s culinary options cater to every palate.

During my stay, I attended a vibrant party hosted at The Common House with an amazing DJ that kept the energy high throughout the evening. It’s these little extras that make Memoir feel so special.

A Stay to Remember

Memoir Residential is more than a place to stay; it’s a destination in itself. From the thoughtfully designed spaces to the vibrant community at The Common House, this is a property that encourages relaxation, connection, and rejuvenation.

Whether you’re in New Orleans for work or leisure, Memoir Residential offers an unmatched blend of luxury and comfort. I can’t wait to return and create even more memories here.
