This place is spectacular. From the architecture, to the variety of equipment and areas, to the staff. I was in town for a conference and found NOAC on google. I bought their day pass which is a bit pricey ($30), but well worth the value once you’re inside. The experience felt like both a gym and productivity space. They had a bar and cafe with finger foods. They also had a quiet library area. They had everything to keep the gains going. Ifun lived in town, I’d definitely be a member here.

As a wedding photographer, I can't tell you how much I love this venue. It has a soul and beauty that is so unique to New Orleans. The ceremony location is warm and inviting and the reception hall just invites a party like you'd expect in the Big Easy. And the staff is wonderful. I hope to photograph here many more times in the near future.

The Best Gym in downtown New Orleans! This gym have it all. Sauna, steam room, cold plunge, massage parlor, mani/pedi, a full bar that serves alcohol, boxing rink, and so much more. The one thing I would recommend is longer hours. They close really early. Staff is so welcoming! 10 out of 10 Experience.

I had an excellent experience thanks to Ecnarfal. They were professional, attentive, and genuinely committed to making sure everything went smoothly. Their positive attitude and clear communication made a big difference, and it’s rare to find someone who goes above and beyond the way they did. I truly appreciate their hard work and would gladly recommend them to anyone. They’re a real asset to this club.

Very very unique fitness facility! To appreciate this place, you have to be willing to admire its unique mystique, charm and distinctively New Orleans architecture and history. Built into an historic building, the cardio, strength, group fitness and group fitness studies are inter mixed with period specific architecture like large white pillars, deep mahogany colored wood and old iron stair cases. The equipment is not particularly new and some showing signs of age but everything is functional and there’s a wide variety on tap for any type of exerciser. There is also an actual bar, barber shop, and a rooftop fitness jungle gym as well as a swimming pool. I do wish they had a few more hammer strength racks or life fitness cardio but otherwise, I really enjoyed this gym.
