Top Downtown Lafayette Hotel Reviews

Candlewood Suites Lafayette - River Ranch by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Convenient and centrally located. Extremely helpful staff. Great to have refrigerator, stove, dishwasher and utensils to make meals or snacks in room. Enjoyed making my OWN brewed coffee to enjoy with breakfast pastry. From now own I will only try to stay at Candlewood hotels. Also the bed was very comfortable. Additionally, there was on onsite laudry, helpful but I did not need to use it"

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Lafayette Oil Center

8/10 Good

"The property was clean, and the staff is very friendly, and helpful. My complaint is the room needs new carpet, and furniture. The carpet had stains all over it, and the carpet was frayed up in places around the room. The furniture was very stained and dirty looking, I didn’t dare to set on the chair or couch. The Chester drawers were broken, as well as the lamp shades."

Downtown Lafayette 4BR Home with Parking

10/10 Excellent

"The house was very clean, information for check in was not provided until an hour before arrival, which is challenging in the event you don't have good reception or cell service when you arrive. Was able to get ahold of the property manager though, which was helpful."
