“There is segregation and really bad food at the buffet!”

First of all, there is segregation in the buffet, and probably the other restaurants also.... if you dont play with a card, but still spend lots of money in the casino, you have to stay in the unlit area that you must walk over 300 feet to get your own food!
I asked to sit closer with my 78 year old mother and they told me NO. Now I know how the a black person felt back in the early 1900's, not being able to eat with everyone else! This place keeps the souths tradition alive and well! This practice must STOP!

Then when you get to the food, its just like the other Harrah buffets, the same food, the same taste, the same crappy food!
I paid $14+ per person and after one taste, waited for my raspberry tea (they were out of regular tea..... hot water and a few tea bags?) took a sip and left the place!!!

Had a HOT hot dog on the corner of burbon st and it was great!

This hotel is very nice. The room was nice, bathroom was huge. Bed reading lights were weird; didn't realize where they were until morning. Getting from the parking garage to the hotel part was a hike and kind of annoying, but it was a nice place.

  • This TripAdvisor Member:
    • Liked — Pretty, new, tasteful rooms
    • Disliked — $5 water, long hike to casino or parking

4/4 found this review helpful

A complimentary junket from the casino took me to this property. It is beautiful from the pillow top mattresses to the cozy robes. The marble bathroom is spectacular and the tub big enough for a family reunion.
It is one of the few hotels where there seems to be more than enough employees to answer every need. The casino is across the street from the hotel and there is a person there to hand the guest an umbrella if needed.
Room service was prompt and the food good in huge servings. I thought the prices a little high, but I used casino comp points so I really didn't care.

“WOW”

Harrah's New Orleans Casino

5 of 5 stars
Eugene, Oregon

2/4 found this review helpful

This was our first stay at the Harrah's hotel in New Orleans.

Our room had a great view of the bridge and city.

The service at this property is outstanding - the employees here are friendly and helpful.

The hotel is absolutely beautiful from the lobby to the bathrooms. Large deep soaking tub, separate shower - I loved that after a late night (early morning) return to the room.

The location is great as it is only a walk across the street to the casino, a block from the Mississippi and a few blocks to Bourbon Street and the French Quarter.

We loved our stay here and will stay here when we return.

“Reservations are a conceptual thing here....”

Harrah's New Orleans Casino

2 of 5 stars
Denver, CO

6/9 found this review helpful

We planned a quick trip to New Orleans for a long weekend, getting in on a Wednesday night, planning to stay until Sunday. After confirming our reservation with Travelocity, uniTED, and Harrahs before departing (I've read reviews, thought it wise), we arrived at 11:30 expecting to check in our room, only to be told that our room wasn't available and that they would 'walk us down the street' and pay for a room on them.

The hotel was adequate, but not what we wanted, we were embarrassed to be turned away after paying more than a fair price. Travelocity wasn't much help either, we got no credit for being put out like this, we had to wait until 3:00 the next day to check in, effectively gutting our planned day taking in the sights and scene that is New Orleans, and putting a real damper on our vacation. It was only 2 1/2 days more and we really had to hustle.

The customer service center for Travelocity is based in India, they were ineffective and the response we had from them was frustrating and close to useless. I will never use an on-line travel agent, instead I will eat the few dollars more, book directly on my own, use reputable hotel chains and hope for the best.

    • Disliked — The checking in/reservation process. The lies that the night manager told us.
