In 2019, it will be Essence's 25th anniversary of the country’s largest celebration of Black women and Black culture in 2019! YAY! It’s never too early to start planning for the Essence Festival! And though it may seem early enough, believe it or not, most of the rooms for New Orleans during this time are ALREADY SOLD OUT! If they aren't sold out, they are RIDICULOUSLY overpriced - some rooms as high as $500 per NIGHT!  

If you're looking for a nice, clean, safe affordable place to stay while living it up in NOLA during Essence Fest, LOOK NO FURTHER!!!

I have selected a hotel that meets all basic needs during the festive time! 

- Located just 15 minutes away from the New Orleans Superdome (where the festivities take place).

- Free breakfast each morning

- Free Shuttle to Airport

- Fitness Center Available

- Easily Accessible for your car, taxi and Uber needs.

- Free Wi-fi

- Free Outdoor Parking

- Microwave & Fridge in Each Room

Guests will appreciate the proximity to local sites, activities and attractions, some of which include:

• Gretna Historical Society
• National WWII Museum
• Destrehan Plantation
• Bayou Segnette State Park

- You must make your reservations in the name that is on your government issued identification you will use to check-in at the hotel.

- Refunds will not be given due to roommate abandonment. Please ensure your roommate has made his/her reservations and are making timely payments as required.

- NO PAYMENTS can be accepted after May 1st, 2019.
