NEW ORLEANS - July 29, 2014 - Travel + Leisure readers have elected Windsor Court Hotel a Top Large City Hotel in the continental U.S. for the seventh consecutive year. Since 2007, readers have been dazzled by the British-inspired luxury hotel nestled in the Central Business District just steps from the French Quarter. The hotel has been the only New Orleans hotel in this category since 2013.

"The Windsor Court Hotel has enjoyed 30 years of emphasizing service and excellence for our guests, so for Travel + Leisure readers to continue to vote us into this category is the highest compliment," said General Manager David Teich.

Windsor Court Hotel has also been among the travel magazine's top 500 hotels in the T+L 500 poll since 2010, consistently ranking as the best hotel in New Orleans.

The property underwent a $22 million renovation in 2012, adding French Vogue touches to its already English-inspired décor, a new "Cocktail Bar" specializing in craft libations, and a 4,500-square-foot Spa at Windsor Court.

The hotel's signature restaurant, The Grill Room, is leading the charge in the fine-dining scene as the only restaurant in the Big Easy with the AAA Four Diamond and Forbes Four Star designation.
