GET ACQUAINTED

Located steps away from the famous Canal Street in the Central Business District of New Orleans, is the new NOPSI Hotel, a Salamander luxury property. The historical building, once home to the New Orleans Public Service Inc., hence the acronym, was the former utility and transit operator, dating back to 1927. The NOPSI Hotel is a 217-room luxury hotel that is architecturally unique with an industrial elegance holding a soft spot in spirit for the past and present community.
