Lafayette Hotel, Marietta

All likes. No dislikes. Charming. Pleasant. Peaceful. Economical. Excellent food. Beautiful restaurant, with riverboat gingerbread architecture. Fabulous Sunday Brunch. Watch the river outside the windows of the Riverview Lounge. Comedy shows Saturday nights in winter. Very funny; hilarious. Beautiful Victorian period (replica) furniture. Fascinating history of hotel. Computer room for guests; check your email back home. Go back in time. See old pictures on wall. Notable group of framed photographs regarding late Captain Way, who piloted Delta Queen back in the day. This group is on steps to 2nd front door off Gun Room Restaurant. Wonderful display of precious baby dolls. See late 19th century color pencil drawings of hotel construction along the Ohio River levee. Chaming.

My wife and I love to stay in old clean restored hotels. We were very pleased with the Lafayette Hotel. It was beautiful and clean. The restaurant in the hotel had excellent food. We took advantage of a package deal and had a great experience. We both want to do it again!!
