Bally's Baton Rouge Hotel

Building still under construction and room apparently is minimal, not visual appealing looks like a dungeon whomever was the design team needs to be fired for thinking that was a good idea. I understand the business plan to get it built and fill it up and let them complain because yes 1 out of 100 is a good percentage so with that i will not be visiting your properties. Good luck to you and your future endeavors H. MCCLENDON

This COULD have been a really nice stay. The location was immaculate, and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, the hotel appeared to have been rushed to functional status and was missing many basic features. First, there was no on-site parking, meaning that we needed to park in the casino parking lot about a block around the corner from the facility. In LA heat, that is a walk, and usually ends up with you sweaty upon return to the facility. They DID have valet parking available, but that was a $33 per day expense. There wasn't really clear signage to direct visitors to the correct parking garage, as there was also one that the valet service used to park valet cars, that you could be towed from if not cleared from the valet company. Upon entering the room, we noticed that there was no workspace available in the room, meaning there was just a bed, a chair and a TV stand, with no desk or additional seating. When eating or working, you either had to eat on the bed, or use the ottoman to work from. There was also no clock/alarm in the room. There was no fridge or microwave in the room, so there was no where to store or heat food. There was a bathroom vent fan, but it was non-functional, even after trying all switches in the bathroom. Additionally, there were no shower hooks for towels, leaving us to hang our towels on screws on the shower door. Overall, it's a nice hotel, but for the price and listed ammenities, it should have been complete.

We decided to stay here because we liked the location and understood that the hotel had been completely renovated (and opened in March). However, the hotel was still undergoing renovations and large sections were closed off (especially by the lobby). We also didn't like that there was a $33 valet charge every night (not listed on your website) with no option for self parking. The valet made it appear very scary to do street parking downtown and offered no other options.

The upgrades are nice. It’s still a process to completion. The staff was awesome super friendly. 10 out 10. The only & main concern is the parking garage they use if you don’t valet. The walk is not bad but at night the area to pass is very sketchy especially coming from the casino or parking garage at night there’s a lot of transients in the area. I suggest don’t walk by yourself after dark females & males. By the way valet is $33 a day. Ridiculous!

Very friendly staff and beautiful place

Our stay was amazing. The hotel is still undergoing construction, but did not interfere with accommodations. The staff was awesome super friendly. The room was great. Good walking access to restaurants & downtown area. Shuttle van to the local casino was a plus. Definitely would recommend.

Great staff and lots to do

The property was clean and lovely. The door to the bathroom offers no privacy and is difficult to close and open. There is construction and parking and entry is not clearly marked. I was looking for a hotel casino and that is what this was advertised. However we had to shuttle to the casino, which was 1.6 miles away. There was a temporary casino you could walk around the property to the second floor of a parking garage which was a little scary. There was no restaurant on property so for that we could have stayed anywhere else.

Checkin was good. Room was smaller than expected. Room would be a giid bdsm dungeon It has that vibe.

This is an older property that is recently renovated. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the linens and pillows were great. The decor is an industrial look with exposed concrete beams and concrete ceiling, and the colors are greys and black. The ceiling in the room is 8’ and in the bath cieling is slightly lower. The dark colors and low ceiling combined with only one central window gave the room a rather dismal feeling. The main concern will be eliminated when construction of the adjoining casino is complete. Until then there are no dining options in the hotel and parking is not available in site. Valet parking is $33/nt plus tax. On the positive side, the hotel is very convenient to the convention center and riverfront. Just beware of the limited amenities until casino construction is finished.
