Great staff! Great customer service! We arrived early and they made it possible for us to check in early at no cost. Their use of technology for communication with guests during the stay is awesome. We also were able to get a 1 hour later check out granted as well with no cost. The place is beautiful, and unique. You really have everything you need in one place. Recommend to check out Quixote, Lou Lou and beginners dinner. Didn’t get a chance to visit the gutter but looks great from what I saw online. Give this place a visit!

Hip, classy…you name it. $31 million renovation hit the spot. BUT…it’s more of a party/club vibe and it gets loud weekends.

We love the Lafayatte so much and can’t wait to go back. We had drinks in the lobby bar, ate at Quixote - 5 stars - went to the live show at Lou Lou’s - 5 stars and spent about 15 minutes in the Gutter Bar. The decor is unbelievable and the attention to detail really knocked our socks off. I do however wish they staffed both the lobby and gutter bars more adequately and with bartenders that treat the clients better We were there on a Thursday evening and all bars were overrun. I would never attempt going there on a weekend. Definitely better service at Lou Lou’s than the other bars. Especially at the Gutter we were treated not as welll as we would like and left to spend money across the street after one round. I get that they are busy but we were patient and then so turned off by the attitudes there. Lobby bar also could use some help. Front desk, valet and restaurant staff were amazing enough as to almost let me forget about the gutter. So we will be back for a staycation but we will skip the gutter.

This was our first time staying at Lafayette Hotel and it was amazing! We received great service from our arrival to our departure. We also had the best sleep we’ve ever had at a hotel in their super comfortable beds. The ambience and decor is next level and creates such a fun atmosphere. I really appreciate their attention to detail in the interior design and room amenities. We will absolutely be back!
