It was cool to stay in a historic place but I ended up having to clean the bathroom due to the condition. I did not know much about the area. But I did not feel safe getting out of vehicle while checking in due to homeless people hollering down the street. There were girls outside taking pictures and they ran inside too because they did not feel safe at that moment. Then parking is a nightmare. I got off my shift to come back to check out and head home, a convention or something was in town and parking long and all side parking was taken. I had to park down the far down the street then hall my luggage to my vehicle in the pouring rain.

The Hotel Bentley is no longer the grand establishment it once was. After nearly 25 years since my last visit, I was heartbroken to see how far this historic property has fallen. If I could give it zero stars, I would. To start, there is no longer valet parking, which sets the tone for what’s to come. Guests are left to hunt for street parking, which is nearly impossible, and then drag their bags—alone—down the street to the hotel. Upon entering, the disappointment continues. The lobby floors and elevators were littered with trash and debris. The once-beautiful brass elevator doors were streaked and spotted, as if someone had attempted to clean them with dirty water. The hallways and rooms are in a shocking state of disrepair. Paint is peeling off the walls, and the carpets are not just worn but filthy, stained, and in my room, riddled with bleach marks. The odor throughout the hotel is an overwhelming fruity chemical scent, which did nothing to mask the black mold or mildew visible on falling ceiling tiles. This trip was supposed to be special. I came to Alexandria to spend Christmas with my family for the first time in four years and to celebrate my wedding anniversary. The Hotel Bentley I remembered was supposed to add a touch of elegance and nostalgia to the occasion. Instead, it was a disappointing and uncomfortable experience. We would have been better off staying at a Motel 6.

First the positives. Lobby was beautiful, rooms were large and bathrooms updated. On the other hand, rooms were tired, carpet was worn/stained, heat was mediocre, there was a musty smell (and someone had forgotten to clean out the mini-fridge) and the beds sagged. I wanted to like this more for the historical aspect but this was more on "rundown" side than "faded grandeur." I would not not recommend it but I would tone down your expectations.

The hotel is an amazing older hotel in Alexandria, Louisiana. The hotel has a beautiful lobby that was decorated very well for the holidays. However, there is very limited parking around the hotel and the hotel has none of their own parking. So when the hotel was having multiple holiday parties while we were staying there, we could not find anywhere to park. Other than the parking situation, I would stay at the Bentley again and our stay was good but not great.

The staff was friendly and professional. The Bentley Room food and cocktails were amazing. The lobby was stunning. My room was average. The bathroom electrical outlets did not work and there was no mirror anywhere else fir me to dry my hair or apply my makeup. The bed was comfortable and thevroom was clean, although the bathroom could use some updating. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and would stay here again.

I love old hotels and some their quirkiness. But this one is just old and tired. When we checked in they did not direct to elevators, parking, coffee lounge, or work out space. We had to ask for everything. We asked if we needed to make reservations for dinner. It was Sunday. They said we did not need one……. The restaurant is closed on Sundays…. Really??? The lobby architecture was wonderful…but it looked dull and dingy, poor lighting. The surrounding buildings with boarded up windows and graffiti was not comforting. Wouldn’t stay again!

this place is old but well kept. it has a special elegance and style that you don't see every day. to get to stay here with all it's history is so neat.. to realize it was built in 1908 is amazing. words can't describe it. you need to see and stay at this place to realize what is right here in our state of louisiana

The staff was not well trained. The room was not stocked with towels. The thermostat for the air conditioner was broken, you had to turn the A/C off and on manually when you wanted it to change. The hot water never really gets hot. The best thing about the room was the Bible in the night stand.

10:30 on a Friday night and there were people stumbling around drunk all around the property. Booking said free parking, but they do not have parking. When we arrived, I was told we could park in the public parking across the street, which is where all of the club patrons were parking or find a place on the street.
