Harrah's New Orleans Casino & Hotel Review Jump to comments

*The ongoing $325 million transformation of Harrah's New Orleans into Caesars New Orleans is expected to be completed by 2024.

Harrah's New Orleans rises up off the foot of Canal Street 26 stories marking its place in the New Orleans, Louisiana landscape as an important figure. The resort is rated Four Diamond by AAA, and enjoys top rankings on all user review sites - rarely being rated less than "Excellent" even when 100's or 1,000's of individual reviews are taken into account. The resort sits right at the edge of the French Quarter and the Arts District and is a stone's throw from the river and Convention Center.

Some of the best dining in New Orleans can be found at Harrah's. The hotel has 450 rooms and suites as well as 47,000 square feet of flexible meeting and event space that can be used for anything from a wedding or family gathering to a corporate retreat or convention. Dining opportunities range from quick bites at the Cafés On Canal (Starbucks, Fuddruckers, McAlister’s) to upscale venues such as The Steakhouse and Ruth’s Chris Steak House with plenty of casual options in between.

Of course, you will come for the gambling too, and the 115,000 square foot casino packs in over 1,100 slots, and 100-plus gaming tables, including an Asian gaming area and a 5,000 square foot WSOP poker room with 20 live-action tables. The poker room is adjacent to the 5,700-square-foot Caesars Sportsbook.
