Top hotels in City Park

Wyndham New Orleans - French Quarter
Parking went up. A lot. Over $50 per night now. Also, they added a “destination fee”. They give you a cheap insulated cup and a $15 voucher at their restaurant. I’ve eaten there twice. Never again. Disappointed every time. Time to find a new hotel. I’d rather you just charged $27 more and be honest ...

The room was ok, however the rest of the hotel was rundown and the hall and general areas looked like a frat party just came through. Walls were damaged hole and scuff everywhere, not what i expected for the price i paid.
