NEW ORLEANS - September 10, 2007 - Loews New Orleans Hotel announces the promotion of veteran hotelier Diane Riche to Director of Sales and Marketing. An integral member of the Loews New Orleans team since its opening in 2003, Riche will be handling the marketing efforts for the hotel, while continuing to direct the sales team and to work with her Chicago-based clients.

"Loews New Orleans Hotel is pleased with the promotion of Ms. Riche," says David Bilbe, general manager.

She has been instrumental in helping us move forward in our vision toward becoming one of the finest hotels in the Crescent City."

Spirited nuances of New Orleans echo throughout Loews New Orleans Hotel with innovative Loews Hotels' programs 'lagniappe-style.' Situated adjacent to New Orleans' Arts District, sweeping views of the Mississippi River and local images reflected in artwork bestow a sense of place subtly woven into the hotel.  Personalized service and supremely comfortable, oversized guestrooms provide an unpretentious Four Diamond and MORE experience, sure to delight guests.
