Our take
Courtyard by Marriott New Orleans Downtown Near the French Quarter suits golfers who care about the location more than the hotel itself. The walk to the French Quarter is the main draw, and the on-site restaurant and gym handle the essentials. I would not expect resort facilities or a pool among the listed features, and Bayou Oaks in City Park still needs a drive from downtown.
- Book your tee times at Bayou Oaks well in advance, especially during peak season, to secure preferred slots.
- Utilize the hotel's free WiFi to plan your daily itinerary, from golf transfers to evening excursions in the French Quarter.
- Consider visiting in the spring or fall for more pleasant golfing weather and to avoid the peak summer heat and humidity.
