We have family in the area so we have to come to Picayune at least annually. For the past 7 years we have stayed at the Holiday-Inn Express. We chose it the first time because it was a relatively new hotel, so we felt that it would meet our standards. And boy did it. So now it is our place to stay when we are in town. Along with visiting family, one thing we always look forward to is eating at Southen Char on Canal Street. It and the hotel will keep you coming back for years.

We had a cruise departing from New Orleans. We wanted to drive down the day before and spend the night so that the day of the cruise we would not be tired from driving all day. This was an excellent choice. The hotel was fairly new (the room even had that new smell). Very clean and comfortable. Seemed like a fairly safe area. Lots of restaurants and shopping close by. Staff was friendly and helpful. Nice breakfast. About 45 minutes from the port. Would stay here again.

The room was perfect for us, it was my husband and I and our adult son and his wife. We each had our own rooms. Wonderful kitchen facilities. They had a very nice fire pit outside that we enjoyed one evening while watching the TV outside. Very clean and comfortable.

3rd time I have stayed at this hotel visiting my sons, will continue to choose this hotel for the location and nice rooms, to bad the jacuzzi doesn't work.

This is a very comfortable place to relax. It is very quiet. The staff is very welcoming and helpful. Rooms are very clean, parking is real good. I extended my stay because it is in a great location. Close to restaurants, freeways and shopping. I enjoy being here because they keep it up.
