DK Eyewitness "Generations of Southern families have stayed at the Prince Conti. Rooms vary in size and are handsomely furnished with antiques and art."
Star Service "Located a half-block from Bourbon Street, five blocks from Jackson Square, the Prince Conti is one of five hotels owned by the Valentino family, which include this charmer in the budget category." Full review
Gayot "The best part of this hotel's charm is that it looks and feels as fresh and well-maintained as it did in the mid-twentieth century."

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
