Central New Orleans offers a small selection of hotels that provide complimentary guest parking. Most of the city's hotels with free parking have only a limited supply, so it's advisable to check in advance that space will be available during your stay. Since on-street parking is hard to find in downtown New Orleans, it's best to leave your car at the hotel when exploring the city. - Set in the heart of the French Quarter with its many bars and restaurants, Le Richeliu offers complimentary secure parking on-site for guests. Housed in a traditionally styled building with balconies, the hotel is located within a five-minute walk of attractions like the French Market, Bourbon Street and the Theatre for the Performing Arts. The 86 guestrooms are equipped with air conditioning, brass ceiling fans, refrigerators and satellite television.
