New hotel opens in downtown Baton Rouge

There's a new addition to the downtown landscape.  The Holiday Inn Express hotel recently held its grand opening. Baton Rouge Mayor Kip Holden, other elected officials, and business and community leaders attended. The three-story boutique hotel is located on North Boulevard and St. Ferdinand.  It features 88 rooms, a fitness center, an executive boardroom and meeting room, and a business center. Check it out. It's really nice!
