uptown is pretty big, depends on which end of St. Charles you're talking about. if you're in the lower garden district, you're an easy bike from the casino, no problem (if biking is your thing).
if you're all the way down on the other side of carrolton, like around the maple leaf somewhere, that's a whole different sack of potatoes. from there, during the summer especially, when it will be hot as balls every day for at least 4 months straight, you will definitely be a soaking, sweaty mess by the time you get to harrah's.
pretty much everywhere uptown is close to a streetcar line, definitely check that out as an alternate option if you are too far to bike, it's too hot, bike gets stolen, etc.
