The Cook is always a solid option when visiting kids at LSU. Got a good rate on a weekend when LSU was not having a home football game.

Great location. Quiet area. Comfortable beds.

Geat location on LSU campus. Very nice hotel, would definitely stay here again.

Location is perfect! Room was clean and comfortable. Staff friendly and accommodating.

This hotel is on LSU campus, very convienient to everything at LSU for anyone visiting the campus.

The staff was very friendly and professional. The hotel was very clean.

This was my second stay at The Cook. For me, there is no other hotel in Baton Rouge I'd rather stay. The room, while not large, was clean and comfortable. The bed was very comfortable. The price was competitive and when you add the free Wi-Fi and excellent free Southern breakfast, it's a great deal. I like that there is plenty of parking. The location is nice with the LSU Lakes right there. The only nit-picking thing I can say I don't like is using a cell phone in the room is difficult. For some reason it is difficult to get an effective signal. Another minor thing is having to re-log into the Wifi so often. Minor inconveniences for me so overall I give The Cook an "A" and it will be my first choice if I am back in Baton Rouge again.

The facility was clean with everyone following CDC guidelines

Beautiful hotel and great location.

Nothing special. Would not consider this a “boutique” hotel as it was advertised

My family and I came for a camp at LSU, so it being on campus made it so much easier, the staff was friendly, rooms we’re clean, my only complaint would be they only have double size beds at this hotel.

Great room. Comfortable bed. Staff was great. Thanks for a restful night.

Directly on the campus of LSU, this hotel is top notch at a reasonable cost.
