Shreveport Regional Airport: where to stay, areas and recommended…

Shreveport Regional is a small airport in northwestern Louisiana: in just a few minutes you can reach both the budget hotels around the terminal and downtown, on the banks of the Red River. Travelers with an early flight or a short stopover find more choice near the airport, along Monkhouse Drive. Those who want to stay in the heart of the city, between the Convention Center and the museums, can choose downtown. Those aiming for the riverfront casinos - Shreveport has several overlooking the Red River - can stay right inside one of them, with slot floors and restaurants just an elevator ride away.
