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!

Hotel is clean and friendly service . Just keep in mind its a party hotel. Best not to bring children. The bars are out of control. No structure or lines. Make your way to the front and yell order. Second night waited for 45 minutes, and reached the counter just so the bar tender to inform me that he is closing on his side. Would be better if they had some kind of system so i could spend money there and not go to the liquor store down the street.

This place really takes you back. My wife and I really enjoyed this hotel and their live music they have in their basement bar!! I wished we would’ve took advantage of the pool. We really appreciated this hotel and what it has to offer. Definitely going to keep my eye on this hotel and cross my finger for a low price room xD

One of the most unique and beautiful hotels I’ve ever stayed at, And one was such a rich history! Next time I go to San Diego, I will definitely stay here again! I love the choices of where to eat, the bowling alley cocktail bar, and just the vibe and decor!

Staying the night here feels like sleeping at a pawn shop / thrift store. The rooms are cluttered, junky and full of ugly worn out stuff. Also, don’t plan on getting any sleep as it’s crazy loud… even though they provide ear plugs. The service is horrible- valet, check in, bartenders- none are helpful or interested in providing service. Skip this place or just have a drink here and move on!
