New Orleans Hotels to Close in Hurricanes - Yahoo! News

New Orleans Hotels to Close in Hurricanes - Yahoo! News: "NEW ORLEANS - This hurricane season, don't count on the city's hotels for 'vertical evacuation' when a major storm makes a beeline for New Orleans.


The hotels, often used as a hurricane haven in the past, will be banning guests and employees from riding out the largest storms, said Bill Langkopp, executive vice president of The Greater New Orleans Hotel & Lodging Association."
