2-laner Posted February 28, 2012 #4 Share Posted February 28, 2012 I've been told that the Hampton Inn Garden District offers one. I am thinking about checking that out on our next cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisefan0110 Posted February 29, 2012 #6 Share Posted February 29, 2012 I have also started a thread to ask about experiences with the 2 holiday Inn's listed there. You could follow along with that also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oklahoma Digger Posted March 3, 2012 #7 Share Posted March 3, 2012 We're staying at the Sheraton Metairie on March 23rd for two nights before our cruise on March 25th. I need to double check, but I think our rates were $99 each night with free parking during the cruise. They offer a shuttle to and from the pier for $20/person roundtrip which is less than a taxi. If you have a group, a taxi might be more economical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teachin4cruisemoney Posted March 4, 2012 Author #8 Share Posted March 4, 2012 This would be my son's first time in NO so we would like to show him some.of the city . There is a Holiday Inn in the French Quarter with a fairly desent deal but nothing like 99 a night. How far is Metarrie from the.city? Would it be easy to.go in for the day or night.

Teachin, We stayed at the Holiday Inn in Gretna last October for $99 and are doing so next November $114. The hotel is located across the river and down a mile or two, from the top of the tower your close enough to see the ship. The price includes parking for the cruise and a free hot breakfast, it doesn't include shuttle to the terminal, so we paid about $20 for a cab. If your wanting to explore the French Quarter from the hotel you can take a short drive to Algiers Point (about 2 miles) take the Canal Street Ferry across the river to the Quarter. Just another option:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oklahoma Digger Posted March 10, 2012 #10 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Metairie is about 5 miles from the French Quarter ... according to the map. We've never driven before, so we're wondering about where to park if we go into the FQ. I think you'd be happy with Gretna or Metairie. We wanted to stay out of the congestion of downtown area, and when we get back to our car, we'll be headed the right direction out of town!

cruzin lady Posted April 1, 2012 #13 Share Posted April 1, 2012 We have booked this hotel for our Jan B2B. We got an AAA/AARP rate which includes parking. It's right on the streetcar line. Our rate was less than $150. Cruzin Lady Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishn2deep Posted April 2, 2012 #14 Share Posted April 2, 2012 QI was great, just across the river from NO. You can drive 2 miles down the street, and take the Algiers Point Ferry across the river to Canal Street for some site seeing. We took the shuttle to and from the cruise port. Total price for 4 and all week parking was about $145. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
