One of the newest entrants into the local hotel market is also one of the most luxurious. Located directly across the street from Harrah's New Orleans casino, this 26-story hotel is richly appointed with marble floors, exquisite chandeliers, plush furnishings, and artwork selected and installed by local gallery owner Arthur Roger. High-profile chef Todd English's lobby-level restaurant, Riche, features strictly French cuisine, and big-name local entertainers headline "528,"an adjacent jazz club nightly. Guest rooms are larger than the local norm and have extras like refrigerators, high-definition televisions, cordless phones, and Wi-Fi. A four-block promenade featuring shops, private party spaces, and live entertainment areas is connected to the hotel.
