"Near Everything In New Orleans"
Overall Score3.5/ 5
The Best Western Plus St. Christopher Hotel is located steps from
Canal Street, the Aquarium, casino, and nightlife of Bourbon Street. You will be warmly greeted by the front desk staff upon entry. Parking is valet only. Rooms are basic, but clean and spacious by New Orleans standards. Guests at the Best Western Plus St. Christopher Hotel should start their day by taking advantage of the full hot complimentary breakfast, then venturing out to enjoy all the Big Easy has to offer. There are no resort style amenities such as swimming pool, gym or restaurant (if you came to NoLa to eat at the same place twice, you're missing out on half the adventure!) There is a banquet room available for meetings and hospitality. Overall, the Best Western Plus offers more relaxed, reasonably priced accommodations close to the hustle and bustle.
