Lafayette Hotel & Club

Lafayette Hotel & Club

10/10 Excellent
"Nuestra estadía fue simplemente espectacular. Desde el momento en que llegamos nos dimos cuenta de que este hotel ofrece una experiencia completamente diferente. La decoración es impresionante: cada rincón tiene personalidad, mucho estilo y una identidad muy marcada. Es un concepto innovador, creativo y disruptivo, pero al mismo tiempo logra transmitir una sensación de armonía, elegancia y calidez. Se nota que cada detalle fue cuidadosamente pensado, haciendo que hospedarse aquí sea mucho más que simplemente pasar la noche. El servicio fue impecable durante toda nuestra estancia. Todo el personal fue increíblemente amable, profesional y atento, siempre con una sonrisa y dispuesto a ayudar. Nos hicieron sentir muy bien recibidos desde el primer momento. La gastronomía también merece una mención especial: tanto el desayuno como la cena fueron deliciosos, con ingredientes de calidad y una excelente presentación. Otro aspecto que nos encantó fue el ambiente. Tiene una energía muy especial, relajada y sofisticada, ideal para desconectarse y disfrutar. Personalmente considero que es un hotel perfecto para parejas o para adultos que buscan vivir una experiencia diferente. Si bien cualquiera puede hospedarse, creo que su concepto y atmósfera están mucho más orientados a quienes desean disfrutar de un entorno tranquilo, con diseño y una propuesta única, por lo que probablemente no sería mi primera recomendación para familias con niños pequeños. Sin lugar a dudas volveríamos a hospedar"
