Hotel Blocks......

So I am working on hotel blocks for my guests and LAWD ya'll....there would be a medical convention in New Orleans the WEEKEND of my wedding...all of the room rates we are getting range from $139/night to $169/night. I didn't look at any rooms in Metairie or Kenner because I assume people would want to be able to walk to eating places and to the French Quarters if they wanted to do so...OHMYLANTA!! What were the running rates for you all with your hotel blocks?

Re: Hotel Blocks......

  • MIne was $99 but I just chose a Hampton Inn...nothing fancy and I liked that breakfast was included and they would shuttle guests to the venue. 

    I am assuming these are the "special group rates". I also double checked that I was getting a special rate and they weren't just giving me the regular rate. So you could check the price online.

  • Oh boy Casey!!! We have one at each "accomodation " level. Basic, Middle grade, and luxury.  $89, $120, $150

    I wouldnt stay at the Basic one because I like nice hotels but I know some ppl just want someplace clean and convenient and dont care about the extras.

    I would do something similar and maybe do 1 in Metarie. It gives ppl the option

  • Well the hotels that are usually $70-99/ night are now $139 and up a night. UGH.....I am going to contact the Sheraton in Metairie and see what they say....I wanted to have one in each category but it doesnt seem like that is happening.
