Pub In The Park

On my last trip to New Orleans, while my friend was out and I was trying to get some sleep, I had a telephone call from downstairs, the hotel management asking for my help with a problem in the phone lines.  They asked me to keep the phone off the hook as they dealt with it; after a moment, I could only hear breathing on the other end of the phone, and so I hung up.  They called back and insisted I keep the phone off the hook.  I unplugged the phone and then got a call again; there was a second phone in the room.  Again, they asked I keep the phone off the hook, but something didn’t feel right about all this.  I got dressed, went downstairs, and asked at the desk.  The clerk was puzzled, then checked, and explained the calls were coming not from them, but from some other guest inside the hotel.  It was like a little horror movie.  The next time I travel to the Big Easy I know I’m going to look for one of the best luxury hotels New Orleans offers and avoid a repeat of that situation.

With the certainty of a fine hotel in which to stay, I can relax and enjoy the city the way it was meant to be enjoyed…  walking around the French Quarter, resting in Jackson Square, having a cup of coffee and a sugar powdered beignet from the original Cafe du Monde Coffee Stand, watching the Mississippi River roll past one of the country’s unique cities.  I can take advantage of the cities many great parks and museums, such as City Park, where jazz really began, and the amazing Audobon Museums, such as the Audubon Zoo, the Audubon Aquarium, and the Audubon Insectarium.  At night, I can stroll the French Quarter, take in a ghost tour, or listen to the jazz in any number of bars on Bourbon Street.  And then return at night, without fear of any more mysterious phone calls from unknown guests!
