Some of you have been asking about a group hotel room rate like we had last year.  Unfortunately, because of the Voodoo Music Fest and a ton of other events happening on Halloween weekend, the hotels aren’t really offering much of a group discount because they know they can book the rooms at regular price.  Call it New Orleans charm. You’d be better off going to Hotels.com or some similar site to get a decent deal.  The Prince Conti even has a AAA rate if you are a member.  You can also check the forums for a comprehensive list of tried and true hotels that people are recommending.  At any rate you should be able to find a good place to stay.
