CruisingOnBy810 Posted May 25, 2015 #1 Share Posted May 25, 2015 We (me, dh, and our 2 daughters) are cruising out of New Orleans for the first time and got a great rate for February 11-14 of next year at this hotel. Just wondering if the cost for transportation will be too expensive since we are flying in.

luvnola66 Posted May 28, 2015 #5 Share Posted May 28, 2015 I would not stay in the Westbank. Your better off in the central business district if you want to save money on hotels and see the FQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooncamp Posted May 29, 2015 #6 Share Posted May 29, 2015 try Hotwire or Priceline for a room. Good news is Mardi Gras is February 9th so hotels will probably be clearing out the day after. good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good news is Mardi Gras is February 9th so hotels will probably be clearing out the day after. good luck I was able to get a rate of $400 total for 4 of us checking in on Thursday and checking out Sunday. I also booked The Drury for$900 for the same time frame. I hate to spend $500 more if it's not worth it.

Tooncamp Posted June 1, 2015 #8 Share Posted June 1, 2015 I would hope you wouldn't have to spend 500 in cab fair to get across the river. Best western is not in a bad area. It's the travel time in a cab. Manhattan boulevard has traffic especially late afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgmpuma Posted June 2, 2015 #9 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Figure about $30 each way from the Best Western to the French Quarter/downtown and back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisingOnBy810 Posted June 5, 2015 Author #10 Share Posted June 5, 2015 I guess we will keep the reservation and keep looking if a better deal comes. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
