Caesars New Orleans

Caesars New Orleans is a casino hotel at 8 Canal Street, at the foot of Canal Street where it meets the Mississippi River in New Orleans, Louisiana. It was formerly known as Harrah's New Orleans and contains a Nobu Hotel within the property. The location sits at the boundary of the Central Business District and the French Quarter, so Bourbon Street, Jackson Square and the riverfront promenade are within a short walk, while the Canal Street streetcar begins close by. The Ernest N. Morial Convention Center and the Warehouse District museums are also within walking distance. The hotel is classed here as luxury, with rates generally between about US$150 and US$450 per night, though the range reflects wide seasonal swings. Room types include King rooms, Double Queen rooms and suites. Standout amenities include the casino floor, several restaurants, a spa, a pool and a fitness center, so the property operates as an integrated resort rather than a simple lodging. The restaurants span casual dining and upscale options, and the casino offers slot machines and table games for visitors who enjoy gaming. The spa and pool provide a break from the humid climate. Service is large-scale and entertainment-oriented, with a front desk, concierge, valet and event staff handling a high volume of guests, including conference groups and weekend visitors. The setting appeals to travelers who want everything on one site, with gaming, dining and rooms together, and to those attending events at the nearby convention center or arena. Casino environments can be busy and noisy at night, and visitors who prefer a quiet boutique atmosphere may prefer a smaller hotel in the Quarter. Families should note that gaming areas are restricted to adults, though the hotel accommodates children in guest rooms and some dining areas. Visitors arriving by car should check parking charges, since downtown parking in New Orleans is typically billed per day.
