Welcome
The Drifter Hotel

Inspired by subcultural nonconformity, The Drifter updates midcentury individualism while celebrating local art, hip cuisine, and specialty coffee.

The Drifter reveals itself as an exercise in modernized nostalgia, both in terms of design and concept. With a name inspired by the iconoclastic Beat Generation of postwar America, the property is a playful respite from New Orleans’ expected offerings, shining a light on a newly hip side of the city by acting as a melting pot for the local and global “drifters” who end up there.
