My husband and I enjoyed our spontaneous visit to the iconic Lafayette Hotel last night. The hotel was as charming as we remembered from our last visit, and colorfully lit and decorated with beautiful and festive holiday decorations. We noticed that the bar/restaurant area was short on staff, yet we were still thoroughly impressed by the awesome and friendly service we received from Vanessa R! She came through in making a drink that we enjoyed from a recent trip to Mexico called “carajillo,” and nailed it! We will definitely be back and would recommend the place to our family and friends! Thank you, Vanessa! You made our night! Excellent service and great vibes!

Lafayette Staff Members are the absolute BEST!!! We cannot express how grateful we are for how welcoming each staff member throughout the hotel made us, our family, and friends feel so welcome and comfortable during our stay. It truly made it difficult to say goodbye. Shoutouts to Lisa Kanemori, Mialani, Joseph Taumua, Krystal, Kane, Cass, Shirley, Ed and the entire support staff working this past weekend. We met with Lisa back in July 2019 to make wedding/reception arrangements at the hotel which was originally set for October 2020. The new hotel owners were kind enough to allow us to postpone for a year due to the pandemic. It has been an unexpected 2 year process that Lisa made sure to keep in constant communication with us to ensure everything was to go as planned. She is very organized and extremely thorough leaving us with little to no questions during the entire experience. Lisa's knowledge of the wedding/reception process was crucial in making everything smooth and effortless. Mialani was always a ray of sunshine whether it was via emails or in person. Joseph's welcoming demeanor and kind words were like a warm hug. Krystal was always more than willing to help out for anything we requested. Cass made sure everything for our reception and ceremony was set up with professional perfection. Thank you for allowing our family and friends set up and access the room when needed. Shirley (Aka Auntie Shirley) made sure my wife and I were well fed throughout the evening. Hope 46 restaurant: Heather, Amy were always attentive. The food provided for our reception received a plethora of kudos from all of our guests. The Halibut Filet constantly received rave reviews. Oh and the beans at breaksfast to die for! Our families wanted to take the entire pot home. The hospitality the hotel staff extended to us and to all of our family and friends was above and beyond anything anyone of us have experienced anywhere else, including from other five star hotels. Our family, friends, including me and my wife, will definitely be back! Keep rocking' it! Truly appreciate all the love and care the Lafayette Hotel team extended to our family and friends. If it were up to us, raises for all who worked this weekend!
