Lafayette around kaliste saloom and pinhook.

In Nola, staying within the FQ is more difficult for clients with respect to parking. If being in the downtown action is important to you, you could get a nice hotel in the central business district, CBD, or near the convention center. It's still walking distance for you to the FQ, but parking is much easier for clients. If staying in FQ is not important, you can also get a place in Metairie, about a 15 minute drive from downtown Nola. That area seems good for many clients, but it is not the more fun place to stay for you. You would need to drive to nola for that.
