Brand Voice & Messaging

Voice & Tone

Core Tone

Bold, modern, playful.

Style Notes

Inspired by Virgin Hotels' irreverence and the rhythm of Treme—but never cliché. Say less with more punch. Inject movement into the copy. Use rhythm, repetition, and unexpected turns of phrase.

Avoid

Overused jazz lingo, heavy nostalgia, or overly formal language.

Think

If Miles Davis wrote copy after a Negroni in a modern suite.

Key Messaging Pillars

1. Luxury in Rhythm

Boutique amenities with a beat. Louis Park moves to its own tempo—where authentic Creole architecture meets high-thread-count linens.

2. Privacy, Amplified

Behind our gates? It's all yours. Whether you're hosting a wedding crew, company offsite, or a reunion with too many stories to tell, our 54-guest compound is made for groups that want to gather without the crowd.

3. Steps from the Quarter

You're three blocks from Bourbon Street—close enough to join the party, far enough to sleep through it. Our location is your gateway to New Orleans without the chaos.
