Placed at the heart of NOLA’s sister city, Metairie, the Ramada Hotel along I-10’s service road offers equal distance to The Big Easy and Louis Armstrong Airport. Offering balconied views and select suites, the hotel is a great place to unwind, whether you’re traveling alone or with the family. With convenient access come convenient perks, whether it be free continental breakfast vouchers at the attached IHOP or complimentary Wi-Fi that makes work a breeze. Though the hotel doesn’t offer airport shuttles, you will be less than eight miles away, making quick taxi drop-offs a cheap option, about as cheap as the nearest trolley stop into NOLA, the closest being along South Carrollton Avenue 6 miles away.
Get a feel for what Metairie is all about, looking forward to the lesser-known getaway home to a historic charm and unbeatable restaurants. Drive east along the I-10 Service road to grab late-night grub at Little Tokyo Restaurant, or go even later with the 24-hour eats courtesy of City Diner, located across the causeway from Little Tokyo. Spend some time at the nearby Lakeside Shopping Center as well, taking advantage of name brand sales as eccentric as the visible soul of New Orleans. Walk through the Long Vue House and Gardens before stepping into downtown French Quarter district, taking advantage of Metairie acclaimed 1939 mansion as ornate as Jackson Square.
