My son is a student at LSU and staying at the Cook is more convenient than any other hotel since it is near the heart of campus. Most campus locations are walkable, the rooms are spacious, and staff is friendly. Prices vary quite a bit depending on the time of year, but if it is comparable or slightly higher than other options, it’s worth booking for the location alone.

Everyone was friendly and helpful. The rooms were super clean. The breakfast is ok but there are so many wonderful places to eat in Baton Rouge that we just had coffee and a muffin to get our day started.

The hotel was on the LSU campus. Check-in was okay. I prepaid for my rooms (or so I thought) but I was told I needed to pay at check-in. I was suprised because my hotels.com receipt said I prepaid. After the confusion over payment, I was told that because I booked through a 3rd party, breakfast was not included. Hotels.com webpage stated that it was. No problem, but it could be clearer. The beds were not comfortable to me, but everyone else seemed fine with them. Very quiet and clean hotel. We did have a surprise lizard visit our room.

I’ve stayed at the Cook Hotel a few times and the staff is always friendly and helpful. The rooms are always clean and cozy. Their buffet breakfast is superior! The grits, scrambled eggs, bacon, and breakfast sausage are always made to perfection! I will be back!
