The location is hard to beat, Nora.
Angel: You know, I killed my actual dad. It was one of the first things I did when I became a vampire. Wesley: I hardly see how that's the same situation. Angel: Yeah. I didn't really think that one through.

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

I thought that hotel was excellent. Great location and very pretty.

For location, I assume you're talking about proximity to the French Quarter? Stupid question, I know...

Shit's all sorts of different now.
That hotel was rock-a-doodle. It was beautiful and close to everything and just magnificent.

It really would be hard to beat in terms of location and charm. And the price was pretty reasonable as I recall.
My only complaint about it was that the breathtaking open air courtyard lived up to that description literally thanks to the heat/humidity wave that happened while we stayed there.

Well, I guess proximity to doing fun stuff and good eats. I found out that the wedding has a block of rooms here: [link] which looks pretty nice too, for a Hampton Inn.

Yeah, I think the Hampton is pretty nice. If I remember correctly, the F2F place is on Iberville, a block or two off Bourbon. The difference in location from the Hampton is pretty negligible.

Nora, I know a great B&B in Marigny, about a 10-15 minute walk from Bourbon Street for $99 a night. It's called The Elysian Fields Inn. [link] . Jim and Leah, the proprietors, are really nice.

Not only would I totally trust a Vortex rec, I'll add that the Marigny is my favorite neighborhood in which to stay in New Orleans.

If the rest of the wedding party is at the Hampton, though, you will be on the other side of the Quarter from them. That might be a drawback or a benefit.
