Top hotels in Garden District

Bally's Baton Rouge Hotel
Room was clean and comfortable. We didn’t spend much time in the casino but appreciated that it wasn’t smoky like a lot of casinos are. Has a late night meal in the cafe that was good. The only down sides on the room are that there is no refrigerator and you can hear the sounds coming from rooms ...
