Why Concert-goers love it

You’re just a quick ride away from major venues like the Superdome and French Quarter hotspots, without the downtown noise. The hotel’s quiet location makes it easy to unwind after a loud, energetic show—perfect for post-concert recovery. With check-in starting at 3:00 PM and a generous noon check-out, there’s no rush to leave after a late night out. The hotel also features private parking, a major plus for those driving in for the show.

Food and Drink Options

The hotel features an on-site restaurant offering American fare, perfect for fueling up before or after a show. Breakfast is available for late risers, and there's a bar in-house for a nightcap without having to leave the property. While there’s no 24/7 room service, the fridge and coffee maker in each room make it easy to snack and sip at your own pace. Nearby local eateries are just a short drive away.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself is more about relaxing than raging, it’s close enough to downtown New Orleans that you can easily dip into the French Quarter’s legendary bars and live music—and just as easily retreat to peace and quiet when you're ready to call it a night. The on-site bar is a convenient pre-show meetup spot.
