Top Old South Baton Rouge Hotel Reviews

Drury Inn & Suites Baton Rouge

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms were clean and the customer service was excellent. Will return."

Holiday Inn Baton Rouge College Drive I-10 by IHG

8/10 Good

"Loved the welcome cat... a black cat that lives on the property (house & all) and greets the guests at the front door. Very friendly. The only problem we had was the water from the faucet stayed warm no matter how cold you set it. (Not very refreshing in the morning). The room was clean and staff left fresh towels daily but didn't bother making the beds other than throwing the covers over it. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The bartender at the inhouse restaurant/bar was amazing. She not only tended to the bar, she took our food orders and delivered our food to our table in a timely manner. Kudos to her! The breakfast was a good variety and well stocked. Overall, I would give it a 4.5*."

WATERMARK Baton Rouge, Autograph Collection

8/10 Good

"I’ve had multiple stays at this property and it is the best choice in Baton Rouge. What draws away from a best rating is poor valet parking service. I twice followed instructions on the parking ticket to text at least 15 minutes before needing my car. Both times I arrived at the valet desk, I was told car had not been retrieved because text system was down. Beyond being late for my appointments, I could clearly see the valet screen filled with texts that were being ignored by the attendants. For my last night, I parked on the street to avoid missing my flight out of town. A fine hotel needs to take care of all aspects of a guest’s experience."
