There are plenty on Canal..Marriott is one. It is about 15 minutes from Fairgrounds I believe. Just be safe. N.O. is a crime zone.
Nothing worth staying at nearby... However, less than 20 minutes away you can stay at a bed and breakfast called W.G. Creole House. Ask for the First Floor Bedroom. Enjoy.
no close hotels in the area I believe.
You can google nearby hotels in your area. Not sure of your location. Best wishes, hope that helps.
