Eat, drink & explore: Experience New Orleans with SiteMinder at HITEC

Located on the Mississippi River in Louisiana, New Orleans is world-famous for its raucous all-night-long party vibe, great cuisine inspired by French, American and African cultures, and, of course, the renowned Deep South hospitality.

Our team here at SiteMinder is thrilled to be exhibiting again at HITEC, ROC and IPW, and to celebrate we've pulled together a fun guide to drinking, eating and exploring the 'Big Easy'. It covers everything delegates need to know about the city – even the weather and travel – and of course plenty of bars and restaurants great for unwinding after a hectic show day.

For me, these events are a great opportunity to catch up with old industry friends (and new ones!), as well as experience some great product innovations from the hotel technology sector, which continues to support the success of many hoteliers around the world and enables them to remain competitive through times when the only constant seems to be change.

This year, in particular, I am excited to be a part of the launch of the next generation in market intelligence. On June 21, SiteMinder will be revealing a free solution specifically designed to empower hotels in:

• Optimizing their room rates
