New Orleans hotel room for family of 5

[hardinggrad]

We are a family of 5 (3 kids ages 17, 15 and 13) looking for a hotel room in New Orleans a day prior to our Navigator cruise in March. Although the Hilton website allows me to book the Hampton Inn for 5 people, when I call the hotels directly then tell me that there is only beds for 4 (i.e. 2 double beds). If anyone has had luck booking a hotel for 5 in NO please let me know. Thanks.

I called Hampton Inn's main reservation # and was told the Hampton Inn Convention Center could accomodate 5 in a room with 2 double beds and a sleeper sofa. So, now we have a reservation. :)

If you don't mind sharing....How much are you getting the room for? Are you able to keep your car in the parking garage?

We have a AAA rate of $179.10 (before tax). Parking is $30/day (I think). We are planning on flying so I didn't ask about cruise parking.

OK, thanks!

There were six of us that stayed at the Marriott Courtyard on Julia street, not far from the Erato St Pier

 

Two bedroom suite with a sofa bed in the living area and convenient to the FQ!

We booked the Homewood Suites (Downtown). They have suites with 2 queens & a separate room with sleeper sofa and a kitchen. Should be big enough for 5 people. They also have 2 room suites with a King & 2 queens.

We have a reservation at the Hampton Inn on St. Charles in the Garden District; trolley on St Charles, so we are thinking it will be good for sightseeing. $179 with free cruise parking::)

We are a family of 5 staying at the Springhill Suites downtown, very close to the port. There are 2 queen beds and a sleeper sofa, microwave, refrigerator, and free breakfast. Parking is $20 a day, but hard to get, so we are parking at Fulton Place for $12 a day. They shuttle you back and forth to the port.

 

The regular price for Springhill Suites is $119, but I booked with last minute travel . com for just $71. After booking with lmt I called the hotel directly to request 2 beds and they we happy to make that request.

 

Hope this helps :)

Drury Hotel is in a very good location (walk to the French Quarters, Harrah's, etc). We stayed in a suite that had one bedroom and living room. Kids sleep on pull out couch and we had one roll away (plenty of room). Drury is used by a lot of people on this board. Check out their website for details of extras they offer:)
