We have a new hotel for Carnival this year: The Hotel Mazarin located at 730 Bienville. This hotel is also owned by the J Collection group (owners of Le Richelieu and Mason Dupuy).
For the nostalgic, Le Richelieu did not make the cut this year when looking for hotels. The hotel is open but the restaurant and bar are not. It was unknown if they would be open by Carnival. So, maybe next year……
We have a 20 room block at the hotel for Fri & Sat night. We also have an additional 5 rooms on both Thurs and Sun for early arrivers and late departers.
The usual:
1. Two night minimum stay
2. No smoking (can be fined $250 for smoking in non-smoking areas & the Krewe could be banned from the hotel)
3. Check in time is 4 PM and check out time is High Noon.
4. You will be responsible for making your own individual reservations.
5. Reservations need to be guaranteed with your credit card
