Lafayette Hotel

The Lafayette was indeed the perfect getaway. On top of the beautiful craftsmanship and decor, every employee I had the pleasure of meeting was very amicable. The front desk staff went above and beyond, Lori was wonderful with information when we checked in. The hotel does definately have some vibes going on! But anything w history really does. Our room was cozy, comfortable, and clean. The furnishings were gorgeous. The balcony on our room gave us a beautiful view of the river. They are also pet friendly We will definately return. The location is perfect. We didn't get to try any food but gives us an excuse to come back. Definately recommend

Beautiful old hotel overlooking the river and located in downtown Marietta within walking distance of stores and museums. The room was clan and reasonably priced for two twin beds. The bathroom was small but the shower had good pressure and felt great after walking all day. We are a couple of meals at the hotel bar. The food was very good. I enjoyed the smothered chicken with Brussel sprouts. Amber was the bartender both nights we stayed there. She quickly took drink and food orders with a fun personality. We took drinks up to the third floor brood area that had tables and chairs. A good view of passing boats. We also had breakfast in the Gun Room. Solid food and quick, friendly service. If in Marietta again, I'd definitely return to stay.

This is an old hotel in downtown Marietta that has been redone inside and is very quaint and reminiscence of the era. It was a long time ago.Bathrooms have been updated and overlooks the Ohio Ohio river ! Comes with a big breakfast free in the morning that is prepared to order. Love staying there and would love to return again

Lovely riverside hotel with easy access to downtown Marietta. I think they had a busy weekend when we checked in, as we opened the door to find the room was not cleaned. Since it was afternoon on a weekend, the only option was a new room, which meant we unfortunately lost our beautiful view. The Sunday morning staff took great care of us upon checkout, but gotta admit, the Saturday staff was a bit "it is what it is" about moving to standard room vs. our preferred room. Highlight of the stay was the Gun Room bar and the Manhattan! We also enjoyed the Sunday morning buffet, and service there was outstanding. Would stay again, but only in the upgraded rooms.

We stayed in the hotel for a long weekend and had a wonderful time. The room faced the river and had great views! The bar tender was friendly and told us about a secret hidden speak easy with access to the roof. That was fun to discover. We enjoyed Marietta and definitely will return!

As a local, I have grown up going to this hotel for parties, firework watching, and dinners with friends. In the past year this hotel has taken on a whole new meaning as I traveled from out of town and had to stay multiple times. The first time was an impromptu stop for a week over the summer, and I felt like family as I came and went. Everyone was so friendly, and made sure that I was taken care of from coffee to a complimentary nightcap. Most recently I stayed and held a memorial event in the banquet room. We stayed in the penthouse suites with my kids and my mother-in-law and the area was perfect for us as we planned for the event and celebrated together. If you are looking for something like a normal new hotel, you won't find that here... But if you are looking for our old style charm, that is truly "Marietta" this is the place!

Food was decent but service was super slow. We went in a huge hurry which was good because our lunch took over 2 hours. Single bartender who was also waiting on all the tables by herself. She did the best she could. I will say the back throughway to get to the restrooms had an absolutely awful smell. From my food service days, it reminded me of dirty water but it also was right by the kitchen which almost made me want to leave without eating.

On 1/23/24 I prepaid Bring Fido $129.45 for a room at the Lafayette Hotel for 3/1/24. Upon arrival the Hotel informed me they had no record of receiving any payment, and I was forced to pay $109.48 if I wanted a room for the night. Now someone is suggesting they are "lounge charges"; however, we made no purchases from the lounge. Any lounge charges are totally untrue. The $109.48 was the rate I paid for room 308 on 3/1/24 - I need my $129.45 refunded Notice the tax rate is 5.03% on ticket 1, 7.75% on ticket 2, and TAX FoREE on ticket 3 of these phony receipts. Lafayette Hotel LIES and CHEATS and produces fake documents.

Breakfast at the Lafayette is nostalgic happiness. Cozy comfort breakfast foods that make the day so much better. Pancakes are tasty. Omelets are delicious. Biscuits & gravy are filling. Coffee was pretty good, too. The waitress was very nice to our party of 5. Overall, it was a very pleasant time.

I had the lemon tarragon, chicken salad, and it was delicious! The french fries are the best french fries I have ever had. They are thick crispy with sea salt sprinkled on them.
