Top Historic Downtown Baton Rouge Hotel Reviews

Crowne Plaza Executive Center Baton Rouge by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"I love everything about this hotel especially the staff!! I stay here every time I visit LSU! I wouldn’t stay anywhere else!!"

L'Auberge Casino Hotel Baton Rouge

10/10 Excellent

"Property was beautiful and relaxing. Rooms were beautiful and comfortable, but cold. Had to put heater on to balance the temperature out. Needs grip bars in shower though. The Property needs more accessible signs out front for directional purposes, like from the main Hwy. That new circle has everyone confused. I saw several cars backing up and making u-turns. There are NO street signs!!! After finally getting there safely, we loved it!!!! Just enjoyed the ambiance, restaurants and listening to the music playing everywhere."
