Top Historic Downtown Baton Rouge Hotel Reviews

Hampton Inn Baton Rouge - I-10 & College Dr.

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast was very good. Staff was good"

Hampton Inn & Suites Baton Rouge Downtown

8/10 Good

"⭐⭐⭐ The hotel was okay overall, but it was definitely more of a “you get what you pay for” experience. The location was convenient and the staff was friendly, but the property itself could use some updating and a little more attention to cleanliness and maintenance. Our stay wasn’t terrible, but it also wasn’t anything memorable or somewhere I’d go out of my way to stay again. It worked for what we needed for a night, but there are probably better options in the area if you’re looking for a nicer or more comfortable stay."
