The staff were amazing- friendly, welcoming, and always helpful, which really made the stay feel easy and comfortable. Breakfast was excellent, and the fact that it's included is a huge plus. Plenty of options and a great way to start the day without having to go out. Overall, everything just worked. Clean rooms, smooth experience, great service - exactly what you want from a hotel stay. Would absolutely stay here again.

They were cheerful, friendly, helpful, and wonderful to talk to. I would give the room 4 stars only because the lotion dispenser was broken. Staff: amazingly friendly and helpful. We asked for recommendation for dinner and she provided us some options. Location: great location. there are several restaurants located in the water. A beautiful path facing the bridge and Mississippi River. There's even bikes you can rent if that's something you'd like to do. Parking is available onsite for a fee Breakfast is free and they have servers options. The staffs were friendly, helpful and just a bundle of joy. I definitely recommend this hotel if you're going to Louisiana. Thank you to the staff! You made our stay enjoyable.

Free dinner that's pretty good. Free adult beverages during dinner. Free soda fountain from 6am to 8pm. Fresh popcorn every afternoon. Clean pool and jacuzzi. And no one minded my hyperactive three yr old or my incessant use of the super fast elevator as I chain smoke and need to go outside many times at night lol. Oh and they don't fuss at you for bringing your breakfast or dinner plates up to your room and you can have as much as you want and return again and again. Loooove that cuz I don't wake my baby up until he's ready since that's the basic equivalent of starting ww3 so being able to fix his plates ahead and bring them up to the room is a triple plus. Great place, truly.

Our room was great and we enjoyed having the extra space with the couch and tv room. The snack/kick back food was really great and the breakfast was amazing as well. I think the food alone makes staying at the Drury Inn an amazing deal. This location has a restaurant inside now which is helpful too. The parking seemed a bit limited but I felt safe at this location as it appears to be in a newer area near the mall/etc. There is a gas station and Jimmy Johns right in front of the hotel. I recommended this location for families.

As a Bonvoy Gold member, I received plenty of snacks and drinks as a warm welcome, which I appreciated. I do not often see hotels go above and beyond the way TownePlace Suites did. The rooms were freshly cleaned and organized, which was great, but the two air conditioner controls were a bit perplexing. I had to find the controls, though there was a note saying they were by the back of the window. Removing the redundant climate control by the front door would be useful and would reduce confusion. I had a pleasurable stay, and the breakfast bar was really good with a quick-make waffle machine and stellar options. I will consider staying at another TownePlace Suites property in the near future.

We are one family of the many thousands that have come through Louisiana to be able to attend and participate in the 2025 USBC Open Championships, a nationwide bowling tournament. She is so sweet and so polite. We asked her for many food recommendations, and all of the spots that she named were phenomenal. Now, we are not from here. So, maybe our idea of what is phenomenal to us may not be the same for others. But I can guarantee you one thing, The food places that were suggested to us not only served great food, but also they served up GR8 service. Everybody's attitudes were so enthusiastic and positive. Not to mention, we are in the south, everyone was so polite. There really is such a thing still as southern comfort and southern hospitality. We received both by staying here, at this hotel. This hotel was definitely clean and comfortable, well lit, and not super modern, but definitely not at all close to being outdated. I like that the pool area is open fairly late into the day and that towels and things are removed constantly. The restroom and icemaker areas are clean and kept that way all throughout the day and evening. The breakfast varies day-to-day. For example, yesterday there were waffles and breakfast sandwiches, eggs, bacon, sausage, patties, cereal, bagels, and other bread items available in addition to four or five may be different types of milk, and two kinds of yogurt. And today, many of the same items were offered along with biscuits and gravy. Nothing about this hotel has disappointed us one bit. All of the appliances in our room are in working condition. Dish, dishwashing detergent and sponges, coffee, utensils, some basic flatware, and other dishes of various types are available. There's also a long listing of different appliances and things that are available to be borrowed from the front desk. The one that really shocked us was a rice cooker. Room rates were definitely reasonable. And even more so now that I've seen the hotel, the room that we were given, all the things. You definitely get what you pay for. I have stayed in rooms that have costed four or five even seven times more than what I paid for this one and in comparison, while this one may not seem as fancy, it definitely offered more to me and was more valuable to me because I had all the things I needed to keep my family comfortable during this trip. Oh, and did I mention? Parking here is absolutely free. The hotel is very close to the freeway on ramp as well. That makes it very nice, on and off the freeway as we please very easily. Ever you were looking for a hotel in Baton Rouge I would stay here again, without question or hesitation !

Carpet looks really dirty. Furniture is nicked. The rooms are small. The rooms are very damn not bright at all like you the pictures even with the blinds open.. I don't know how they captured that. The TV is very small like a 32 inch. The beds are ok but they don't look as nice as in the pics. bathroom sink doesn't have a lot of space. Tub is are small in general.The tiles are stained or old. everything in this hotel needs to be updated definitely not worth the price. I don't know why it's listed as one of the top hotels in the area but under the Hilton name, I expected lot more. I will say that the staff was nice except for the person that checked me in the first night everyone else was nice.

We checked in and were sent on our way to our room. The elevator smelled like urine. When we neared our room, we saw the maid outside the adjacent room. When we entered our room, the she quickly turned her head and asked what we were doing and that this room wasn't ready, but it was her sharp unpleasant tone that caught us off guard. No worries, I told her but to please contact the front desk. She said I don't know who told yall it was ready but do you see it's not ready? Anyway we made our way back to the lobby, got another room, got in a different elevator, and noticed the disgusting odor again. We get off on our floor and it smells awful like a ranch mixed with urine. The room also smelled musty and like a wet dog. We tried to look past that but then there was also a disgusting hair ball on the floor, stains on the bedding and curtains, and the just total ick. I give one star to the kind lady at the restaurant and check-in and for the view of the Mississippi River. Unfortunately we were not comfortable at all during our stay. We felt disgusting and couldn't wait to leave.

We ate at Bon Temps as they've finally brought back all you can eat now crab legs. We went on a Friday and waited in a short line when they opened at 4pm. After reading comments online we knew to get there early. It's not even Buffett style anymore. You order crabs and they bring you a bucket or pan with 3 clusters of legs, 1 potato and 1 corn cob. Now I'm not filling up on this sides cause I want my moneys worth. It was $39.99 a person for the crabs. The waitress would come peek and see if you was running low and then she would bring you another bucket or pan of crabs. I noticed that some people was ordering food off the menu so if you didn't want crab legs you wasn't getting charged for that just whatever you ordered. Again, no buffet! We was thrilled to have a much closer drive and it was also cheaper than where we've been going for years.

Sitting at the table talking and enjoying the game on the big scream our soft drinks came in plastic cups. Not one cup, two small cups for each for us. Twenty minutes later, some guy in street clothes comes to the table and throws 2 cardboard go boxes on the table and leaves. That was our dining experience to end the night. Did I mention the plastic fork and knife?

Not only did he create art for our alcoholic beverages but he included the whole family by making stunning mocktails for my daughter. Thank you Ken for making Baton Rouge even better!

Upon check in everyone at the front desk seemed confused and uninterested, granted I came in about 1030 PM but come on after a 6.5 hour flight a little more care and consideration for any traveler would have been welcome. The floor I was on smelled like cigarette smoke-when I brought someone upstairs, the man said- uhm I don't smell anything. The next morning I woke up to coughing (I found out later who was ever stying in the next room next to me was smoking-it was an adjoining room door-not a solid wall). They said they handled it....why didn't you handle it the evening before? The rooms while nice are very very cramped there is barely enough room to move- and also not clean-the floors just look dirty. When I asked for a manager to call me back- the manger just sent me a form letter "Please know that your feedback is extremely valuable to us. We use feedback, such as yours, to continuously make changes to our brand to improve the guest experience. We hope that you will give us the opportunity to serve you again in the future. Again, thank you for choosing Hotel Indigo, and if I can be of assistance to you, please contact me directly at XXXXX" Nothing to address anything I wrote in my comments. LAZY, just LAZY. Just a terrible experience.
