Renaissance Baton Rouge Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great"

TownePlace Suites by Marriott Baton Rouge South

8/10 Good

"The room was very clean it just smelled musty. So much so that I went and bought Fabreeze and candles. Breakfast bar is very good."

Crowne Plaza Executive Center Baton Rouge by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Great"

Tru by Hilton Baton Rouge Citiplace, LA

10/10 Excellent

"The room was very clean. I appreciate a room that’s thoroughly clean and this definitely was as soon as we walked in we could smell the cleaning products that were used the front desk, lady. I don’t remember her name but she was phenomenal. She was very nice and I didn’t care too much for the breakfast honestly would have preferred bacon over the sausage that they had but I was still appreciative that they have breakfast. We didn’t get to utilize the pool or the gym, but I appreciate it knowing that those amenities were available to us. We had an amazing bathroom. The water pressure in the bathroom was probably the best water pressure of any hotel bathroom I’ve ever experienced. It was better than the water pressure in my own home lol anyway overall 10 out of 10. I will absolutely stay there again in the future and I just wanna say an amazing thank you to everyone who is there? It’s a great area. I felt safe. It’s not too far from the interstate and everyone was very nice and I had a great time."

Family Ready Fully Equipped House 3 Bedrooms and 2.5 Baths

10/10 Excellent

"We had a memorable stay here for our son's graduation from LSU. The house was spacious and immaculately clean, and conveniently located for easy access to shopping, restaurants and the University. It's a neighborhood of newer homes adjacent to an older established community. The beds were comfortable with good linens provided. The AC worked well to handle the local humidity. The kitchen is modern and has a well-stocked pantry. The owner was very responsive, and checkin was easy with an access code provided for the front door keypad lock."

Newly renovated, spacious, modern home near Hospitals and LSU.

10/10 Excellent

"Randy was a wonderful host. We had a wonderful stay at his property."

"My husband and I thought the place was nice, The bed was comfortable.The host responded quickly to any questions. We were concerned about the outlets in the master bedroom/bathrroom. The outlets were loose and the bathroom one was coming out of the wall.There weren’t any outlets close to the bed to charge phones, I’d recommend to get a bedside lamp that has usb ports. "

Comfort Suites Baton Rouge South I-10

8/10 Good

"The guy that checked me in the night I arrived at the hotel was pleasant and professional. The young lady that checked me out the morning of 03/15/2026 has a very bad attitude to be working in customer service and assisting at your front desk counter. She was unable or unwilling to provide me with a receipt for my stay. She looked up the reservation and said since it was booked with Expedia get your receipt from them. I'm guessing this was the same associate I had an interaction with over the phone when calling to inquire about check-in times. I asked how long my room would be held since my travel was late and I would not be arriving by or before 3:00pm. Her response to me was harsh and very professional just to say rooms are held until 2:00 am before cancellation. The two mornings of my stay there was no breakfast available. Room service was not provided Saturday morning and when I returned to the room after my day out the room was as I left it and I had to go to front office for clean towels and bath soap. I have stayed at several hotels in the area when visiting my relatives and this was the worst of the worst as far as staff and property. "

"Stayed here with coworkers, the hose worked out great but could have used a larger entry rug to catch dirt, it was hard to keep clean with rain. Other than that nice house in a nice community"
