the Spanish, the voodoo and the music that make up the city’s rich and compelling history. This evening is yours to have dinner at one of

the many outstanding restaurants nearby. Our hotel is located in the heart of the French Quarter yet away from the traffic and noise of

annual event, see authentic costumes and floats, and enjoy a slice of King Cake! The remainder of the afternoon is at your leisure.
