wingnutphl Posted December 20, 2004 #3 Share Posted December 20, 2004 I stayed at the Hilton Garden Inn in Kenner. It's about 10 minutes from the airport. I got the Cruisin package for $89 (plus tax) a night. This included transportation from the airport and buffet breakfast for 2 people. It was an OK place to stay. I'm not picky, I just wanted a place to sleep. I booked transportation through the hotel for $13 per person and it left around 12:15. I was at the pier in 20 min and was in my room by 1:00. I would have prefered to get to the pier earlier. Not sure if you can get an independant cab company. Hope this helps. Dawn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travelgrrl Posted December 20, 2004 #4 Share Posted December 20, 2004 New Orleans is such a fab spot in its own right, I can't see staying at an airport hotel in Kenner and missing it. Can you get a room in the Garden District or somewhere in the FQ? We stayed at the Wyndham right by the pier for about the same price quoted above; we used a shuttle service to get to the hotel then just walked through Riverplace to get to the pier.
