Top University Lake Hotel Reviews

Hampton Inn Baton Rouge - I-10 & College Dr.

8/10 Good

"Easy access to interstate"

Embassy Suites Hotel Baton Rouge

8/10 Good

"Breakfast is amazing. Made to order omelets. Yummm. Staff was extremely nice. Especially the staff that services breakfast. They all just seemed truly happy. The room (single) was very spacious and well appointed. Separate bedroom. Small refrigerator and microwave as well as a safe. A little bit of age showing in the bathroom. (Finish on tub and sink). My only real complaint ( I know it’s not all the rooms) was my room (208) was a corner room. Right outside my window and in the walls were HVAC equipment which was rather noisy. I will stay here again in the near future but will definitely request a room away from that end of the hotel. Overall 4 stars."
