Hotel Lafayette

My wife and I loved this hotel and the owners and staff. Family owned, safe parking, great views of the Adriatic, Clean rooms made up new every day. Full breakfast bar with everything you could ask for. Most times in life you get what you give. Take the time to learn the names of the people around you and be kind…this will guaranty a beautiful stay and is also what travel is all about. Be aware the pool and beach have a season and if out of that season will be unavailable. We would like to thank the owner Tony and his son Francesco and daughter Titaziana, and Nicoletta, Domenico and Domenico! Cosimo, Enzo and Alessandro! See you next year:)

The hotel looks nice, and it's probably a fun place to stay at during the summer. My mother and I stayed there for two nights in mid November, so it was out of season. I chose this hotel because it has parking and it's close to Molfetta where we were visiting family. The woman that greeted us at check-in was really nice, however I cannot say the same for other employees as we were questioned on multiple occasions if we are staying at the hotel, what is the room number and the sort. I guess we looked like we don't belong there, which is not a good feeling to have when you're paying to stay at the facility. The room was clean. However, there was a huge bush right in front of the window, I don't know why they would do that. It didn't bother me, but I'm sure other people wouldn't be happy about it. On the second night, when we got back to the room, there was no hot water, but it was back by the morning. The free breakfast had good quality options for food and drinks.

This was an interesting hotel and stay. Comfortable.

So the most pleasant part of the stay turned out to be a warm welcome by a super friendly man from the night shift. Unfortunaty later everything was wrong… In the morning there was no warm water at all, and the cold was flowing in a thin stream, so it took me almost an hour to wash my hairs. It was really an everyday’s disaster… we booked a room with a balcony, unfortunately only with a nasty view of the walls of the second building and some pipes (see pictures attached)... breakfasts are another disaster, apparently those are said to be served from 7-10, but if you come after 8 o’clock , you can only find leftovers and, if asked, the waiter reluctantly will deliver the cheese or eggs, marking a long waiting time at the beginning. So even when eggs or cheese are already finished at 8 they were never planning to fill those in, what in my case was quite important as it was only vegetarian staff available for breakfast… And the best thing, the hotel organizes events such as birthdays, baptisms, weddings etc. so not only music plays until late at night (very loud) but then the terrace and restaurant are also not available to guests. Moreover the swimming pool was already closed, but ok, because it was mentioned in the offer, but the hotel does not provide even sunbeds anymore, you can forget to stay in the sun on the premises of the hotel or you can sit on the plastic furnitures that are so dirty that they scare you away from a distance
