    Leesville is a very small town, with barely basic amenities. A new fast food restaurant is a big deal. Booker-Lewis provides a very comfortable, dare I say civilized, alternative. Rooms and fine with real bathrooms. The dinning room is has white linen tablecloths and the chef does a good job. The bar is a nice place to hang out. I had a package deal that included two drinks and a steak dinner - a real bargain. I wouldn't stay anywhere else in town - period!!


    Great Place!!! Ran by professionals.

    The low down from Jocko... This is by far one of the best places to stay in all of Louisiana. The fine dining and professional staff make the Booker Lewis House the place to stay. From check in to check out first class service and accommodations.

    A gem in the small town of Leesville. Tasteful rehabilitation of two historic houses and quality overnight and dining accommodations.

    Outstanding stay! The whole staff (Adam, Tamika, Britney, Jacqueline) was friendly and very helpful. The breakfasts were wonderful. We had a private brunch there and couldn't have been better. The pub is nice and bartender Jason was amazing.

    The staff, accommodations, and food at the Booker-Lewis House never fail to meet my expectations! I have stayed here three times (for about a week each time) and have experienced a consistency in service and quality that I challenge anyone to find in most high-rated hotels. The rooms are impeccably clean and comfortable, the staff go out of their way to take care of you, and the food is outstandingly well-prepared and priced. Could not ask for a better experience and would stay here any time.
