baton rouge: My husband is currently deployed, but will be home on leave next week! I wanted to surprise him with a romantic overnight get-a-way!!|||The hotel options in Baton Rouge tend to be oriented toward business travelers. Probably the best choice for you would be the Hilton downtown, which is a renovated historic hotel. The hotel offers a weekend federal/military rate of about $100 per night, and a "romance package" (King bed, champagne, choc covered strawberries, breakfast) for about $280.

There are many between BR and NO, plus more around Saint Francisville. Many plantations have cottages and that offer much more privacy than a room in the main house. Wherever you decide to stay, call the sales manager for the hotel FIRST and tell them why you want to stay there. They should be able to help make sure your visit goes well. Good luck!
