Is There A Casino Near Alexandria La
Posted By admin On 09/04/22(KALB) - The Hotel Bentley is quite the staple in Alexandria. “It was constructed in roughly 1908. The story goes that Joseph Bentley, a timberman from Pennsylvania, was here scouting timber. He purchased something like 90 acres between Alexandria and Boyce,” said Scott Laliberte, the Chief Operating Officer of the Hotel. Our hotel puts you near the best attractions around this historic city. Explore the Alexandria Museum of Art, Louisiana History Museum, or bring your kids to the T.R.E.E. House children’s museum. There are also a number of historic homes nearby including Arna Bontemps African-American Museum, the Kent Plantation House, and Bennett Plantation.
