Our Experience While on Set

When we walked into this hotel we immediately smelled the most amazing scent – lavender! The lobby was elegant and peaceful and the staff was very friendly. Our rooms were sleek and edgy and there were several restaurants and bars in the hotel from which to choose. I highly recommend the Hyatt Regency New Orleans if you want rest and relaxation, but stay for the incredible view of the Superdome!  Location, location, location!

Our Additional Tip

Not every hotel is going to offer you packages where you save money and have fun! The Audubon Awesome is a package your family might enjoy. It offers overnight accommodations in a King or Queen guestroom with two Audubon Experience Passes, which includes admission to all the Audubon Institute’s attractions. Also, you get 20% of all items in the gift shop and a breakfast for two in 8 Block Kitchen & Bar. Don’t forget to ask for the Hyatt Family Plan and you’ll enjoy 50% off the rate on a second room for children 18 years and under.

Need More Ideas???

We did a lot of research for the show! Though we couldn’t visit every destination, we did want to show you what else we found.

Wake up every morning on one of three scenic patios with a Complimentary Deluxe Continental Breakfast at the Maison St Charles Quality Inn & Suites. Enjoy the outdoor pool and spa or work out at the gym/athletic club at St. Charles Avenue Athletic Club. If you can’t travel without your pet, bring it along to this pet-friendly hotel. Guests are welcome to bring up to one pet per guest room.
