Kick back at a newly redesigned New Orleans hotel for $79 a night, and save 45% on current rates -- leaving more money in the wallet to enjoy the live music, shops and one-of-a-kind cuisine of the nearby French Quarter.

Stay at Hyatt Regency New Orleans Fridays-Sundays in August for this deal. For $99 per night, visit Fridays-Sundays in September, November and December. Suites with a separate living and bedroom area are also available for $50 more per night. Weekdays have also been discounted.

Listen to live sultry jazz each Friday and Saturday night at one of the restaurants, or dine at the newest restaurant by award-winning chef and Louisiana native John Besh. Walk to the Superdome next door, where the Saints kickoff football season this September.
