The room wasn't as clean as I would expect & it took hours for The AC in the room to cool down. After the first night, my room didn't have hot water - I took a very cold shower the second morning & reported it to the hotel. Around 6:00 pm, they told me they weren't able to fix it & offered to let me move to a different room, but I opted to just use the shower in the other room because I got in so late.

The food at Gaston's was really good.

The river „view“ is greatly exaggerated, the place felt somewhat deserted… and it was „Seafood Buffet“ night, the smell in the room was hardly bearable. For check out nobody was available.

Interesting style and concept behind it. For breakfast we can highly recommend the cafe around the corner. Great coffee and a great way to meet the locals! And the Grapevine Cafe is superb! Reservations are required Donaldsonville is well located to explore some plantations

Room was very dusty, but the bedding and bathroom were otherwise clean. Room was fantastic, very pretty and old style. Very romantic. Bright lights on the outside point directly to the windows making the room fairly bright at night even with the blackout curtains. The room had very tall ceilings making the ventilation very nice. The room temperature was perfect. Lobby wasn't clean, but it was from dirt tracked in, not from food or trash, so not a huge deal. Overall we had a great stay. The issues were minor all things considered.

Only one side of the bed had a bedside table and an outlet, which was very annoying. Also, weak water pressure in the toilet.

It was a nice place, kind + helpful staff

We thought breakfast was available at connected restaurant but not so (and nowhere in town) One room no window - rooms are essentially cubicles inbuilt into large old department store. Queen bed had 'squeaky' plastic protector.

Staff helped with luggage upstairs on arrival . Shower good and rooms clean. Coffee available downstairs in foyer. Staff provided history walk brochure. Good location for accessing riverside plantations (our criteria). Nearby 'Grapevine' good restaurant.

Disappointed that it is not "on the River" and also no elevator and the rooms are up a large flight of stairs

Quiet, coffee available anytime, beds comfortable, easy parking

Discovered on arrival that the room booked did not have a window and was fully enclosed with only artificial light and air con. Nothing was stated on Booking.com about this. This needs to be amended by Booking.com as it’s unfair that this could impact on the owners business which is not deserved.

Its location in town. Nearby walking trail. History of the building. Diner and bar immediately next door. Comfortable bed. Owner and staff very welcoming, hospitable and accommodating.

Location is beautiful at the old abandoned center of the town, beautiful room!

A charming hotel in a perfect location to driving down the downstream section of the Great River Road and visit plantations along the way. Bedrooms are quiet and nicely arranged in a Louisiana style. There is a large parking place next to the hotel. Good food is served at the restaurant, and Gonzales offers a large choice of restaurants at a 30-min drive from the hotel. It's worth visiting the residential area with typical Louisiana-style houses nearby the hotel.
