Smiley7863 Posted June 13, 2012 #1 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Does anybody know if there are any hotels in New Orleans that let you park your car there while you are on the cruise? When I took a cruise out of Ft Lauderdale we stayed at the Fairfield Inn & Suites in Nov 2010 and the price for a room with two queen size beds and parking for a 7 day cruise was $154.00. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is the link for NOLA: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/forumdisplay.php?f=414 Thanks for the suggestion, but I also posted this on Carnivals board, since I know they have a cruise out of that port. I received a bunch of replies. So I now have 6 places to call. Thank you again :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thescot123 Posted June 14, 2012 #4 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Parking can be a big issue in N.O especially in the French Quarter. On our upcoming cruise in Nov, a lot of people in our group will be staying at the Quality Inn in Gretna. This hotel is just across the river from the FQ. It is costing me about $144 including taxes. They provide a free shuttle to/from the cruise port and free parking. It is rare to find hotels in N.O that offer both. I believe that they also will shuttle you for free to the river ferry which will take you to Canal Street. http://www.qualityinn.com/en/deals/hotel-gretna-louisiana-LA036 Over the last few years, I have stayed at the Best Western in Slidell which is about 30 minutes outside N.O and then drive to the port and leave the car there for $16 per day. Decided to try something different this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crichard312 Posted June 28, 2012 #6 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I live in Gretna. The Holiday Inn is less than 15 minutes from downtown and about 10 minutes from the port. Free parking and shuttle.. I would do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x2tpd Posted June 28, 2012 #7 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Holiday Inn Metairie Airport has a park, stay and cruise. $151 with tax. 10 days parking, 2 welcome cocktails, transportation to and from the port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crichard312 Posted June 29, 2012 #8 Share Posted June 29, 2012 I am from the new orleans area, I would stay at the Gretna one before the one in Metairie. Too much traffic and it is difficult to get around Metairie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
