Check for some non-chain properties. Also check the Hotel Villa Convento, which is in the French Quarter and has free parking:
The Ambassador Hotel (on Tchoupitoulas Street in the Warehouse District) usually has good rates:
I have used New Orleans Bed and Breakfast several times. Their e-mail address and their phone number is 504-838-0071
Another B&B service is:
Try, which sometimes has lower prices than the other travel sites.
Good luck!

In the French Quarter check out Baronne Plaza, Sleep Inn, and Quality Inn. All are walking distance to Bourbon Street.
All the hotels up their rates during “Event Weekends”
Check the online websites such as nola.com for preferred hotel rates.

Check out The Frenchmen on Frenchmen Street or The Lamothe House on the Esplanade
Both are very nice and quaint, located in historical houses and have this typical New Orleans atmosphere that you won’t find at any chain hotel. Rooms start about $60 a night. They’re not in the French Quarter, but you can easily walk there. Frenchmen Street also has great (jazz) bars and restaurants.
You can also check:
They often offer a surprise hotel, which is always close by or in the French Quarter. Most of the times it is a chain hotel, but when you go in a busy time, it can be worth checking out when all other places are either booked up or too expensive.

When I was in New Orleans, I stayed in sun suites. Its right near the airport. But there’s another location in New Orleans as well. Its 64.99 or 69.99 a night, It depends on which you pick; 1 bed or 2 beds. It has a fridge, microwave & stove included. When you go on the site you can see a virtual tour of the room.

I had good luck with Travelodge, in Metairie. $50.00 per night and due west of New Orleans on US 61. You know check with Days Inn, all the usual 1’s.

DUring a holiday weekend rates might be up a bit. But you might luck out with specials at certain locations. I always recommend Maison DuBois Bed and Breakfast. Generally their rates are about $120+ though but well worth it. Great pool, large suites, great location.
There are cheaper options but I think it worth it.
