DECATUR HOTEL CORP.
 
 
 


In 1994, the Hotel Chateau Dupre was opened after being converted from apartment units. The 56 room Chateau Dupre's location on Decatur Street in the French Quarter made it a convenient place for visitors who wanted to explore some of the city's newest attractions, such as the Aquarium of the Americas, Jax Brewery and the Riverfront Streetcar.

In 1999, Decatur opened the 86 room St. James Hotel. The St. James is a boutique hotel located on Magazine Street, a short walk to the French Quarter, Riverwalk, Convention Center, Superdome, Harrah's Casino and New Orleans' world famous antiques and specialty shops. The heart of the St. James is the last remnant of the famous Banks Arcade, which occupied the entire 300 block of Magazine in 1833. Like the Pelham, the St. James was recognized as best historic restoration.
 
Also in 1994, the 60 room Pelham Hotel was opened after being converted from an office/warehouse. To utilize its unique design, a number of features were incorporated into the décor, such as the iron corinthian support columns. Winner of an award for the best historic renovation, the Pelham is located on Magazine Street, adjacent to the French Quarter in the Central Business District.


In 1997, Decatur opened the Parc St. Charles after converting it from office space. The Parc St. Charles has 122 rooms and is located where the business corridor of Poydras Street meets the St. Charles Avenue Streetcar Line.
In June of 2002, Decatur Hotels opened the 102 room Cotton Exchange Hotel, located on Carondelet Street in the Central Business District, just two blocks from the French Quarter. The Cotton Exchange's décor is inspired by the colorful palettes of French Impressionist painters like Edgar Degas, who painted his famous "The New Orleans Cotton Exchange" while visiting relatives in New Orleans. In 2010 the Cotton Exchange and Holiday Inn Express were merged into a 223 room hotel, Which is now just the Cotton Exchange Hotel
