Excellent Service!

The staff of the hotel, valet, and their communications with Pearl St. Catering are amazing! I was in the Roosevelt Suite for the night prior and the night of my wedding and it exceeded every expectation I could have possibly had! Thank you soo much for being professional, helpful, courteous, and helping make my wedding beyond perfection!!

Amazing experience and food!

Wow!!!! We had an amazing experience at The Greenhouse Room with Pearl Street. We worked with Stephanie, and she is an absolutely saint. She answered ALL of my emails, ALL OF THEM, within 24 hours. She was so thorough and never missed a beat. The food was fantastic - best bang for your buck. Day of banquet coordinator Morgan was so helpful. The venue atmosphere was MAGICAL. We had the best day ever. I cannot say enough great things about this venue!

We had the most amazing experience with the Hotel Lafayette! They took care of absolutely everything for us, and our guests raved about the venue the whole evening. They handled centerpieces, decor, worked with us to allow my dad's homemade wine to be on the tables for the toasts, and so much more. Everyone was extremely responsive the entire planning process, we had the most beautiful, magical night. We are so glad we picked the Hotel Lafayette Greenhouse Room!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
