As the Holiday Season draws to a close, for our final Premier Project Moment of the year, we’re proud to share one of our favorite projects from 2025: the restored lobby mezzanine at the Le Pavillon, New Orleans adorned in her Christmas finest.
As part of a recent multi-year property-wide renovation that completed earlier this year, Premier’s transformation of this one-of-a-kind lifestyle destination is also notable on account of its success as a historic hotel preservation and brand conversion project, seeing Premier convert one of New Orleans’ oldest independent hotels into the newest member of Marriott’s Tribute Collection. Premier provided interior design, procurement, corporate engineering, and project management expertise on the project.

Key to the success of Le Pavillon New Orleans’ conversion was Premier’s ingenious fusion of classic Régence Period extravagance with the contemporary luxurious aesthetic that defines Tribute Portfolio destinations. Led by a vision to “turn history on its head”, Premier’s Interior Design team masterfully incorporated antique furniture, 19th century European artwork, and globally sourced reclaimed building materials, and balanced them with modern and sophisticated accents to bring the hotel’s historical spaces into the present era. The result is a collection of subtly ostentatious spaces imbued with the French Quarter’s colonial flair, all expressed with a luxurious and contemporary narrative that captures the authentic New Orleans experience.
