If you want your kid-friendly getaway to have scads of extras in a full service setting, this Riverside property fills the bill. Head off the lobby directly to the Riverwalk shopping mall, or visit the Aquarium of the Americas, just steps away. The 1,616 spacious rooms have plenty of amenities, with cribs available upon request. You're within an easy walk to to the French Quarter and Jackson Square. Let the kids work off some energy at playing tennis on the rooftop or swimming in the pool. Drago's Seafood Restaurant, locals' fave, offers a kids' menu and high chairs for the little ones.
