NEW ORLEANS, May 26, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Summer travelers seeking a weekend getaway in the Crescent City will find Courtyard New Orleans French Quarter/Iberville the perfect home base for their adventures.

Formerly Courtyard New Orleans Downtown/Iberville, the premier hotel recently updated its name to better reflect its prime location near the French Quarter. The Courtyard currently stands as the closest Marriott hotel to the French Quarter, making it ideal for visitors craving easy access to the historical sights, award-winning restaurants, renowned museums and one-of-a-kind nightlife the oldest neighborhood in the city has to offer year round.

Although the name on the building has changed, the hotel's superior service and thoughtful amenities remain the same. Former guests can rest assured that they'll be greeted by the same friendly faces when checking in, seeking restaurant suggestions, enjoying breakfast at Vieux Carre Café and roaming the hallways on their way out to be tourists. Following an adventure-filled night, the contemporary-inspired accommodations travelers love will provide the perfect amount of comfort and relaxation.

While stylish and peaceful inside, Courtyard French Quarter/Iberville's location is what truly sets it apart from other hotels and lodging accommodations in the city. Just half a mile from the French Quarter, the hotel makes it easy for visitors looking to start their day with a cup of coffee and beignet from the famous Café Du Monde before strolling through the local street shops at the French Market. Other notable attractions in the neighborhood include Jackson Square, Le Petit Theatre and Musee Conti Wax Museum, all within walking distance from the hotel. 

The French Quarter is just one of the many attractions nearby. Guests can get tickets to a Broadway show at Saenger Theatre, just 0.2 miles away, or let the good times roll at Harrah's Casino, 0.4 miles away. Museum and gallery hop down Magazine Street, get an inside look on the city's largest celebration at Mardi Gras World, then end the evening dining and dancing with live music at Frenchman Street. It's all within easy reach.
