Best Hotels in Baton Rouge

Two details stuck out to recent guests of the Renaissance Baton Rouge Hotel: One, its stylish interiors (think unique furniture and light fixtures, as well as bright pops of color) and two, its location next to the Mall of Louisiana. This Renaissance outpost is also less than 10 miles east of the Louisiana State University campus. You'll notice more of the hotel's unique decor in its guest rooms, which feature contemporary furnishings and amenities like minifridges, iPod docks, Aveda bath products and wireless internet access (for a fee). Though reviewers were generally complimentary of the property's accommodations, which they described as spacious, lodgers were less impressed with the on-site restaurant. Diners conceded that the American fare served at Tallulah Crafted Food and Wine Bar was delicious, but not satisfying enough to warrant the menu's high prices. For more affordable eats, visitors suggested heading next door to the mall. This hotel also boasts a fitness center and outdoor pool, as well as 13,000 square feet of meeting and event space. What's more, members of the Marriott Bonvoy program can use or accrue points for bedding down at this outpost.

Situated in Baton Rouge, Louisiana along the Mississippi River, L'Auberge Casino Hotel receives mixed reviews from recent guests. Some travelers said the hotel's staff members were kind and attentive while others said they could use additional training. Some guests said the rooms were spacious and comfortable while others noted they looked dated and could be cleaner. Regardless, accommodations include amenities like LED flat-screen TVs, complimentary Wi-Fi, pillow-top mattresses and bathrooms with built-in mirror TVs. When it comes to dining, you'll find Southern fare at the Bon Temps Buffet. You can also grab a coffee at PJ's Cafe, dig into some sizzling sirloin at 18 Steak or root for your favorite team at Stadium Sports Bar & Grill. If you tire of hitting the casino (with its 1,500 slot machines and 50 table games), you can go for a swim in the rooftop pool or in-room massage services.

This Hilton markets itself as a "historic hotel," and recent guests do indeed feel that they've stepped into the past during their stay. The furnishings found in each of the rooms are reminiscent of those used when the property was known as the Heidelberg Hotel and Capitol House and frequented by Kingfish politician Huey Long. There's a touch of modernity as well, from the complimentary Internet access to the MP3 alarm clocks in all of the rooms. Travelers also appreciate that this hotel is less than 3 miles north of both the Capitol building and Louisiana State University. Recent lodgers suggest that a day spent exploring the old town Baton Rouge area (with complimentary transportation provided by the hotel) is best bookended by a meal at the hotel's Kingfish Grill. And if you're a Hilton Honors member, remember that you can earn or cash in points here for additional stay benefits.
