The original Historic Heidelberg and Capitol House Hotels are being restored in Downtown Baton Rouge. Constructed around 1920, the Heidelberg served as Headquarters for many of Louisiana Governor Huey Long’s historic “deal making” meetings. The Capitol House was added to the complex in the 1950s. The new renovation, combining both hotels  will bear the Hilton Flag and contain 275 guestrooms and meeting space overlooking the Mississippi River. Construction began in late 2004 and is scheduled for completion in 2006. The building is being renovated to its original Interior and Exterior design, and is receiving Historic Tax Credits.
