Crowne Plaza New Orleans French Qtr - Astor by IHG
Wish there was free parking for guests. Had to do valet which is not cheap. The location was perfect for us and we could walk almost everywhere we needed to. The complimentary bag check was very helpful…especially after checkout because my flight wasn’t until 7:30om. Overall pretty good ...
