| - We had never even heard of The Orleans Hotel, but we stayed recently to see Peabo Bryson perform in the Showroom there. We were pleasantly surprised with this hotel! It's got that New Orleans feel and decor to it.
Our room was a little dated, but sizable and well-planned out, even had a small window which opened over the tub/shower area so no steamy bathroom! Most importantly, it was quiet! There was ample free, close parking available. There is a bowling alley and a movie theater. The slots actually paid off, well, sometimes and there were actually seats open at the $5 blackjack tables. The buffet was reasonably priced and the pastries and desserts were the best I have had on the strip anywhere, including the gelato! The pool area is large and tropical and very relaxing. They have a nice gym and spa area as well, though we did not get to use those on this visit. We enjoyed our stay here and we came back a few days later on another trip to gamble, play and eat here with friends. We will be back!
PS The Buffet area is going to be under construction now for about four months :( But, I'm sure it will be worth the return. Hoping they don't increase the prices.
