Our stay at Loews was exceptional. The hotel was immaculately clean and our room (luxury king) was spacious and the furnishings looked new. Employees were very friendly and helpful. The location was perfect for our needs (a 7 minute walk to Bourbon Street and across from Harrahs). The valet parking in the hotel garage was somewhat expensive ($29 a night), but a safer option that trying to park on the street. Room service menu and mini-bar was also overpriced ($6 for a bottle of water and $5 for a bowl of cereal?!) so we didn't use it much. Overall a great stay and we plan on staying again on our next visit!
