I stayed at the Lafayette Inn in Easton, Pennsylvania, the evening before Thanksgiving. The property is historic and delivers a clearly premium experience. Breakfast service was solid—thoughtful offerings, though not a full diner-style spread. Rooms were clean, spacious, and well maintained. Overall, the location is convenient, particularly for Lafayette College–related activities and events. A strong option for visitors seeking a refined, local stay in Easton.

Everything was perfect from the moment we got there up until the second we left. We walked in and were greeted with complimentary baked goods (always available) and a happy hour of cheese, wine, crackers, and fruit! Once we settled into our room we thoroughly enjoyed the TV, fireplace, deck, whirlpool tub, extra room, and robes. Everything was honestly soo nice. To top it all off, the staff were very thoughtful, attentive, and amazing cooks. Breakfast was great, quick, and scrumptious. My wife and I loved our entire visit and our little getaway. Thank you!

If you go to Lafayette, this is the Inn (hotel) to stay in. The rooms are very ckean and the bed is so comfortable. Akso the staff are very professional and always available to help you. Be aware, if you arrive after 7:00, you will need door code for that day. The breakfast is also an excellent offering here. There are woffels, bagles, cerial, eggs on request. And the room where you sit is roomy and has large wondows to enjoy the property that is ample and has fine gardens. In summery, this Inn is reasonably priced, perfectly located as it is near Lafayette College an easy walk away. It also has a wonderful atmostphere with a gas fireplace and sitting room complete with game boards. The feeling i had was that everything here exhudes quality and a good atmosphere. I will always stay here by myself or with famil

This place is a GEM. Very clean and the innkeeper is one of the hardest working people I have ever met. This is not your corporate type of bed and breakfast. The owner himself pays meticulous attention to every detail with special care to the history of the home. It’s incredible what he handles daily. I’m really looking forward to coming back and seeing the new carpet. The breakfast was incredible, the sitting room is welcoming, and sitting on the porch during wine hour was such a welcome bonus. Thank you for everything you do.

A very enjoyable 4th stay here as we dropped our daughter off at school. I would characterize our stay as like staying with friends in all well appointed house, very different to staying in a normal hotel or generic inn. In addition to the spacious and well appointed rooms, the 24-hours access to assorted beverages and snacks (fresh cookies, fruit, chips, etc.) makes it feel like home. Not having to make a trip out to the front desk to over-pay for a limited selection of packaged snacks. Overall, Alicia and her team do a great job. We loved our stay here at the INN very conveniently located next to the Lafayette campus. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The room was spacious and nicely decorated in era appropriate furniture. The snacks, drinks, and piano in the parlor really enhanced our stay. We had a 2nd visit in late March - same outstanding service and comfortable room. 3rd and 4th visits already booked.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Cozy, comfortable room on 3rd floor with lots of privacy. Bathroom was large for the space. Breakfast each morning was very well prepared and of superior quality. The value is excellent. I imagine this would be a great place to stay for Lafayette parents or visiting high school students. The campus is right within walking distance. The nearby center of town (Easton) is quite inviting and evokes a lot of Americana charm in its brick & mortar, reclaimed industrial era footprint. From the moment you walk into it, you will notice the Inn retains this atmosphere in its own quiet way.

The Lafayette Inn is a lovely, comfortable, and convenient place to stay on College Hill, especially if visiting the College. It's pleasantly decorated in a colonial style with memorobilia of the Inn's time as a fraternity house and its conversion to a B and B and art work related to the Marquis de Lafayette and the colonial era. The management is clearly dedicated to assuring a pleasant stay and our room and particularly the bed were very comfortable. The Inn is spotless and very well maintained and snacks and coffee are available 24/7. The morning breakfast is well done, albeit a bit limited. Essentially the menu offerings are yogurt, fruits, granola, toast, cereals, hard boiled eggs, coffee/tea, and freshly baked pastries. Parking is free, car chargers are available in their private lot, and the walk to the college is a very short distance. In short, we truly enjoyed our two night stay at the Inn.

We were traveling back to New England at the end of a long road trip and were looking for somewhere to spend the night before our final stop in New York City. We thought that Easton seemed to be a comfortable distance from the city. We didn't do a much advance checking as we usually do, but we found a gem! The innkeeper/owner couldn't have been more welcoming, attentive, and accommodating. The inn was lovely,, our room was clean, comfortable, and well appointed. The food was great including freshly baked cookies in the evening and a delicious breakfast with many choices served in a bright and sunny dining room that was a wonderful start to our day. We highly recommend the Lafayette Inn
