How far to walk to port????

[gfsmith]

So we are staying at the Sheriton and i was told i could leave my car at the casino for free just wondering how far it is to walk from Harrahs to the port is it something we could do? Or should we just suck it up and pay parking? Has anyone did this before? Maybe they have a shuttle hmmmm... i will check into that. Any and all help is apreciated thanks :)

If I remember, Harrah's was across the street from the Sheraton going away from the port entrance. In other word, it's closer to walk to the port entrance from the Sheraton - one long block past some of the heartbreaking scenes during Katrina.

Not sure where it is but you can always take a cab or Uber to the port

We're talking new orleans right? The Harrah's parking garage is definitely closer to the port than the sheraton. The sheraton is on canal street...a block or two from harrhs. The harrahs parking garage is on the other side of poydras street...next to Hilton Riverside. People do walk through the riverwalk mall..which is attached to hilton riverside... to the port.

I think you have to be a 7 star or above to park at the casino for free!:)

We stayed at the Marriott across from the Port about 8 years ago. I believe the casino was one block to the left and the port was one block to the right(facing River).

 

I remember walking directly across to the ship then taking some type of walkway for 1 block. The main thing I remembered was that there was a bunch of stairs . It was a huge pain with the suitcases even with wheels.

 

On the way back, I believe we went through the mall (and maybe the convention center?) to the street before walking the block and there were no stairs!

 

Thought it was worth a mention!
