Bally's Baton Rouge Hotel
We were there for a LSU/ATM game and we were in and out, but it was a nice stay. No problems at all. Hotel was clean and room was great. Unfortunately we didn't get to gamble or eat at the hotel.

Origin Baton Rouge, a Wyndham Hotel
Nice clean room. Nice staff. Just a few parking spaces for hotel residents for $18/night, and street parking was usually occupied, though I was able to find street parking a few blocks away from the hotel. Not far from the Mississippi River where you can sit and view. Would definitely stay ...
