Top hotels in Main Street Historic District
Bally's Baton Rouge Hotel
The hotel and our room were really neat. Our room was very clean and pleasant. There are restaurants on site and we had a good experience and food at one of them. Despite the rooms being really big, there was no fridge or microwave. The staff was great, quick and helpful. I would stay there again ...
