Night-Before Score
The verdict

Twentieth, the last of four tied on 36. Marriott calls the cruise terminals "moments" away, and some rooms look over the river.

Easy Virtue does brunch all day, the bar runs until 1 AM, and there's a pool on the 3rd floor.

It loses the tie on the $59.89 valet, the most in our top 20, and oversized vehicles can't use it.

Ask for a river view, and walk or cab the last stretch.

Book it if

  • Couples who want a river view
  • Anyone who wants brunch before boarding

Look elsewhere if

  • You're bringing a pet.
  • You're driving something oversized.

The port’s own garages

$120–$350 by cruise length

The port runs two garages and charges by cruise length, not by the day: $120 for a 4-night cruise, $135 for 5, $160 for 6, $180 for 7, $200 for 8 and $350 for 14. Carnival parks in the Erato Street garage, on top of its terminal; Norwegian and Royal Caribbean at 100 Poydras, with a shuttle to Julia Street, which publishes only the 4-, 5- and 7-night rates.

Both open at 9 AM and take cards only. Reserving adds $1 a day; driving up doesn’t. The port’s FAQ still quotes $25 a day, which matches only its 8- and 14-night rates. Compare every parking option.
