Best location in Marietta for walking tours
Superior location at the heart of Marietta (Riverboat lane). Has elevator for the elder guests. Rich in history. Great staff

What a great place to wake up!
The Layfette is a historic hotel so it comes with the quirkiness of age. The floors squeak and the rooms are more compact but that is just part of the experience of staying in a hotel from another era. Our room had a newly redone bath and shower in a period black and white tile that fit the theme. The best surprise of the two-day visit was the breakfast. We are all accustomed to the typical hotel breakfast with plastic eggs, etc but the Layfette must have a Michelin Chef in that kitchen. They provide a voucher for a Traditional Breakfast or you can apply that toward anything on the menu, just pay the difference. I had the General's Pancakes and then the Stuffed French Toast. WOW! The extra flavors in both of these were just perfect. Everything was so good! Every other hotel breakfast will be nothing but a disappointment. A great start to the morning.

Below expectations
Biggest disappointment was the price. We really thought we were going to have a luxury, memorable stay. Just average. Second biggest disappointment was the Thanksgiving buffet. I found a couple items I could eat but, for the price, I expected something special. Gun Room now looks like a diner. Not fancy at all. No breakfast offered on Thanksgiving but no discount on room rate either. Finally, no football games were available in our room or in the bar. Drove 6 hrs to get there and we made the best of it. But wont be returning.

Great (fun)location. Old hotel with full service. Little things, which should be relatively easy to fix e.g. bedside lamp didnt work, TV wouldnt get local channels (as listed on in room guide), wi fi was weak to not available in room, a few small ants on bathroom floor.

Good meeting point for extended family
Old historic hotel with antique furniture and some recent upgrades to bed and bath. If the old charm is your thing, you’ll love it. If you like modern and shiny new, you won’t. There were excellent food and beverage choices. Many weekends have music or comedy shows as an extra ticket. It was great for us since we met family and this was halfway point. Overall, it worked nicely for us.

This historical building is lovely. Our room was spacious w a sitting area and 2 bathrooms. Very very cool. Overall cleaniness was good. Wallpaper was pealing off the walls. There were stains on the chairs, but linens were crisp and clean. Window AC units and ceiling fans. This was fine for our Oct stay, not sure how it would be in July or August. Lobby was pretty, but there was an odd odor and carpet could use a good cleaning. All in all a good place to stay. Close to everything. Wlka le to bars and restaurants and quaint downtown shops.

We were given coupons for free breakfast on Saturday but were told at breakfast that day that the coupons were mistakenly given to us by a desk clerk who'd made a mistake so they were not valid. Breakfast prices are VERY VERY reasonable at the hotel but i feel like the coupons should have still been honored since it was the hotel's mistake. We ended up paying full price for breakfast. We plan to visit again in the future because we did love the hotel and its great location. We'll just check the coupons before we head down to breakfast.

What a wonderful stay
Cool beautiful vintage hotel with beautiful views of the Ohio River. Spent some time sitting in the lobby listening to check-in.The staff is so friendly and eager to accommodate the guests. The town had lots of historical, natural and commercial attractions. Strongly recommend.

The room was VERY SMALL and the bathroom was incredibly small. The small basin was right in the way of the toilet. You had to shift your body past the sink to get to the seat! They had too much big furniture in the room and we could barely turn around. The AC was in the window - not in the wall as depicted here. The hotel itself was lovely - but our room was just too small. The bed mattress was lumpy and very uncomfortable.
