Does HotelsByCity recommend this hotel?
Visitors to Metairie say this is a marvelous Marriott and the best place to stay in town. Many guests stayed here rather than in downtown New Orleans. They said it was a $20 taxi ride to the French Quarter and after a session there it was nice to return to this quiet oasis. There were good reviews about an attentive and friendly team of workers, very comfortable beds and reasonable rates for luxury facilities. Most clients were impressed with the views of the 24-mile Causeway Bridge that the hotel enjoys and said they would definitely stay at this hotel again. Read our customer reviews?
