The Wyndham Metairie is just off the south shore of pristine Lake Pontchartrain, only minutes from downtown New Orleans and its myriad of attractions. Guests are just eight miles from the clubs and cafes of the French Quarter and the pro sports of the Superdome. What's more, the hotel is within walking distrance of the restaurants, bars and shops of Fat City, Metairie's version of the French Quarter. The Bayou Oaks Golf Facility in City Park, four miles away, includes four 18 hole golf courses.

This contemporary hotel's modern lobby features sleek glass walls, a polished stone floor and grand circular staircase leading up to nearly 5,400 square feet of meeting space and a nearly 4,200 square foot ballroom. In addition, accommodations include a fitness room, business center, rooftop lap pool, 24 hour room service and complimentary wireless Internet access in the lobby.

Of course, the New Orleans area features plenty of dining options, and Hedge's Bar and Grill in the hotel is popular with guests and locals. Hedge's serves up breakfast buffets and a la carte orders, lunch and dinner, which features signature jumbo stuffed Gulf shrimp, pork chops with "Dauphinois" potatoes and the chef's award winning pan fried crawfish cakes.

The 182 guest rooms include comfy pillow top mattresses on triple sheeted beds, ergonomic chairs, high speed Internet access, cordless phones, laptop safes, minibars and fancy Golden Door toiletries.

Nine miles from Louis Armstrong International Airport, the Wyndham Metairie attracts families and leisure travelers who appreciate the quiet and safe environment outside the city. Business travelers return for the high speed Internet and spacious work desks. The Wyndham adds to the comfort by providing easy access to all the surrounding venues and sights guests will want to explore.
