Gayot "This hotel is just three blocks from the tourist-crammed French Quarter and within shouting distance of the always-booked Ernest N. Morial Convention Center."
BlackBook "Hotel suites with exposed brick may not be something you're used to, but it's part of that N'awlins flavor."
Fodor's "This is a good alternative to the huge convention hotels; you're just steps from the major downtown attractions and the Convention Center, and Harrah's New Orleans Casino is a five-minute walk." Full review
Star Service "It provides a vintage warehouselike atmosphere that runs counter to the cool corporate look of the neighboring commercial giants hereabouts." Full review

Lonely Planet "Twenty-six floors, 450 rooms, an 115,000-sq-ft casino, six restaurants, four blocks of retail space: some guests hardly even leave the property." Full review

It’s worth joining the Harrah’s free loyalty program; even if you only gamble a little, you may get a suite upgrade.
Star Service "Harrah's opened this hotel one short year after Hurricane Katrina, in a 26-story tower across from the casino, and it is now the most popular outposts for gamblers in the Big Easy." Full review

Gayot "Whether you're a high roller or just want to feel like one, this 26-story luxury property next to (but not in the middle of) Harrah's casino delivers the goods."
