This year, Hotel Monteleone held a Papa Noel Holiday Sweepstakes during the most magical time of the year in New Orleans. Those who entered the contest qualified to win a trip to the Crescent City during the holidays, complete with a stay for two in our historic hotel.

In this post, we’d like to congratulate Eloise Martinez-Herndon, our Papa Noel Sweepstakes winner!

Eloise is from Clinton, Mississippi, and has chosen to bring her husband along for her holiday trip. She says that she has visited New Orleans many times, but has never stayed at Hotel Monteleone. She and her husband will enjoy some of New Orleans’ most luxurious accommodations and amenities while they’re in town. They’ll also be right in the midst of some very special New Orleans holiday events. 

Read on for a peek into Eloise’s fantastic vacation itinerary, and get some tips for your next New Orleans vacation!
