Windsor Court invites guests to celebrate the holidays in elegance with a range of festive offerings, including special holiday menus at the on-site Grill Room. Chef de Cuisine Daniel Causgrove has prepared four-course, fixed-price menus for Thanksgiving, Reveillon, Christmas Day and New Year’s Eve.
Continuing a 30-year tradition, Le Salon serves holiday tea from Thanksgiving through Kings Day. The service includes a pot of tea, a choice of sherry, sparkling wine or a specialty cocktail, classic English tea sandwiches, seasonal scones with clotted cream, and a selection of gourmet desserts. Reservations are required. Tea service is priced at $47 for adults and $27 for children.
Through January 7, 2016, guests can take advantage of a seasonal rate promotion: 20 percent off the best available rate Sunday through Thursday, and 10 percent off the best available rate on Fridays and Saturdays. Book online to secure these savings.
To add a festive touch to the cocktail menu, mixologist Kent Westmoreland created the Santa’s Little Helper holiday cocktail, a blend of Licor 43, Canton Domaine Ginger Liqueur, fresh lime juice, amaretto and cream. Throughout the hotel, holiday decorations enhance the atmosphere, featuring a 19.5-foot tree in the lobby, twinkling lights, a working toy train, four six-foot gold magnolia wreaths and more than 1,500 feet of garland.
The 23-story Windsor Court sits in New Orleans’ Central Business District, within easy reach of the French Quarter. The hotel offers 316 guestrooms and suites and is home to the acclaimed Grill Room Restaurant and the Polo Club Lounge.
