Top hotels in Monticello
Drury Inn & Suites Baton Rouge
We’ve stayed at this hotel numerous times due to my medical procedures. We always feel like we’re at our home away from home. The staff is superb, the food is great and the rooms are spacious!

Bally's Baton Rouge Hotel
Check in was great although the staff member didn’t say a word to me. Steven was a valet I think, he was at the elevator to the hotel and was incredible. He offered many places to see and ways to leave the city during rush hour. He’s a gem.
