My wife & I had a great first visit to New Orleans, and a big part of the positive experience was the stay at the Drury Plaza Hotel. The young man (Christopher) that helped us with our check-in was the best ever. He cheerfully answered at least a dozen of my wife’s questions about the hotel & touring the city. The hotel is very safe, quiet, comfortable, and is close to everything. The hop on/hop off city bus tour stop is right across the street. The French Quarter, Superdome, WWII Museum, riverfront walk, etc. are short walks from the hotel. There is a charge for self-parking, but it is extremely easy & secure & connected to the hotel. There is a nice, hot breakfast in the morning that is kept well stocked with food by the staff, and a real nice happy hour (5:30 to 7:00) with drinks & food every night (both are included in the price of your room). I can clearly see why so many people have given the Drury a 5 rating, as it clearly deserves it. A special thanks to the folks that work at the Drury for your kindness. You made us feel welcomed & special.
