The Celestine was once the residence of Antoine Amadee Peychaud, the creator of Peychaud’s Bitters, which is a foundational element in nearly all of the classic New Orleans cocktails. Hence the name of our bar, Peychaud’s. Inspired by the cocktail culture for which New Orleans is both beloved and renowned, our boutique hotel offers a unique guest experience where guests are invited to indulge in classic New Orleans cocktails at our bar or on the beautifully designed courtyard. Elevating the experience further, our rooms feature personalized wet bars tailored to our guests' cocktail preferences. Complete with recipes, ingredients, and tools, guests can craft their own cocktails within the comfort of their rooms.
