In order to avoid leasing rooms, the casino opened its own 27-story hotel tower with 450 rooms across the street from the casino on September 21, 2006, just days ahead of the New Orleans Saints return to the Louisiana Superdome. Since its opening in 1999 Harrah's has been renting nearby hotel rooms to accommodate its guests currently, the newly renovated 202-room Wyndham Riverfront Hotel is providing such accommodations. There are several places to eat ranging from buffet style to fine dining. The casino is owned by Vici Properties and operated by Caesars Entertainment.
It is a 115,000 sq ft (10,700 m 2) casino with approximately 2,100 slot machines, over 90 table games and a poker room. Harrah's New Orleans is a casino in New Orleans, Louisiana, United States, near the foot of Canal Street a block away from the Mississippi River.
