need help with hotel in NO
Has anyone stayed at Grand Palace hotel on Canal st in NO? I found a very good price but after reading a lot of articles on this forum the location is what I am not sure about. Thank you! N>

ONCE AGAIN, a good price = bad hotel in New Orleans. The "Grand Palace" (it's neither!) was shut down by the health department last year and allowed to reopen after they gassed the rats. Do NOT stay there. Ever.

Once again Dan is right. Do NOT expect to get a decent, safe hotel in NO at a bargain rate.
Forget the French Quarter. Your best bet is to find a B&B in Faubourg Marigny or the Garden District. Try bbnola.com.

snowrooster - I have friends who went in August and had a great time. They had a great hotel at a good rate and just scheduled their activities around the heat - sightseeing and outdoor activities in the mornings, naps, relaxing in the pool, and indoor activities in the afternoon, and partying at night.
