thevacationer Posted October 28, 2012 #1 Share Posted October 28, 2012 I booked a last minute cruise and it is the weekend of the Jazz festival. I am having a very hard time finding a hotel to stay the night before the cruise. Where would be a good, safe place a little ways out from the city. I am coming from Tennessee. Has anyone parked at the port? Parking safe and secure? I would be thankful for any input. I have never sailed out of NOLA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgmpuma Posted October 28, 2012 #2 Share Posted October 28, 2012 If you are coming in on I-10 from the east, there are lots of hotels/restaurants in Slidell, about an hour from New Orleans. Port parking is covered and secure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we may actually stay in Jackson, Mississippi on our way down. it's a three hour drive and we can have a ncie dinner at one of the many resturants the night before. Just requires an early start the next morning. I suggest the Hilton Jackson or the Embassy Suites Ridgeland, MS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlondeKajun Posted December 29, 2012 #4 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Consider the Mississippi Gulf Coast, Biloxi is about 90 mins, they have the Casinos & beaches. Don't forget to check B&Bs in New Orleans,we have some great ones! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
