What can I say besides this was the best place to be during the holidays growing up…read more Ms.Cheryl was the most excellent hostess and has been for many years of not over a decade. I highly doubt many people are coming down this way, but if you do, & you get a chance, stay here. It's quiet and full of history, the good and the ugly, but without a doubt, a must visit. The attic used to contain hundreds of artifacts and history pieces but the owner sold all of it unfortunately... I remember finding out Santa wasn't real here, haha, having an Easter egg hunt with my classmates, and there are always used to be tons of weddings taking place here :) if you get a chance to check out the bowling lane please do! It's very interesting

EXCUSE ME. WHERE IS THE LOVE BUTTON?…read more This is my favorite hotel in the whole state! I stay at hotels pretty regularly in New Orleans (which is known for having wonderful boutique hotels and B&B's) and the Fairfax tops them all. Cheryl always is friendly and courteous every time I come there! There are only SIX rooms in this plantation house built in 1852 but they are six magically captivating rooms! Rates are reasonable and of course come with breakfast (and free wifi). I usually can get the Fairfax or Murphy Suite for $169/ngt. The other four rooms are very comfortable as well. There is also a bar area with tables and chairs next to the lobby. The city of Franklin is a very peaceful and charming town with lots of character. New Iberia is only 25 miles away if you want to make a day trip to a bigger city with more shopping/dining options. This is my escape from all the noise and traffic I usually am encountering in the French Quarter. A beautiful and romantic place to stay away from it all. I really recommend the Fairfax House to anyone seeking a different kind of stay than your usual modern chain hotels.

Wow!! This place was absolutely amazing! Sal and Todd are like the dynamic duo of hospitality! The…read moreowner and host made our stay so welcoming and comfortable, we wanted to extend our stay in Lafayette, because of them. This is definitely our "go to " spot in Lafayette from now on.

Our stay at T Frere bed and breakfast…read more When me and my husband arrived at T'Frere's House Bed & Breakfast we were very excited to be staying at this B&B because of the history of the house. We were met a few mins after we arrived by Miss Donna she was very friendly and we quickly felt right at home. She showed us around the common areas explained door codes made us feel like we were family. We met Casey and he brought to our attention all the new art work that was acquired for the common rooms, as well as some more history of the house and the fact that soon there will be a small scale model of the house before it was remodeled hand crafted from memory i spired by a 96 year old man that grew up in the house but lives close by. We chose the Fais Do Do suit little private walk way off the courtyard but we look forward to staying in the main house next time. The house was built in 1890 and I have to say I was never hot anywhere in the house or our suit. Louisiana is hot and humid lol The courtyard is beautiful a very nice gentleman was outside hanging lights above the courtyard I can't imagine them not being there they look amazing. Be sure and check for books in the Parlor for info about the B&B history. Our suit had a mini fridge, Keurig, very nice king size towels lots of pillows and lots of plugs, Free WiFi, comfortable bed very spacious rooms, cable tv, beverages and ice are in the guest fridge in the main house. We had breakfast in the sun room at 8:30 delicious eggs, bacon, and biscuits with OJ and Coffee but breakfast changes daily. We will definitely be returning and look forward to staying in each of the rooms. The staff make this place extra special!! And the science museum is right down the road couple miles.

(From October 2025)…read more During my assignment in Lafayette, I stayed here a few nights. Best perk of staying here is the location as there are some restaurants/bars/shops that are within walking distance and a Costco is a short drive away. As for the other things, they do serve hot breakfast here and there's a pool and exercise room. As for my suite, it was mostly clean and had a comfortable bed but the hotel could use a makeover as there were several instances of dried paint and parts of the tub that could use recaulking. While I'd be open to staying here again cause of the location, I'll likely venture out to other hotels in the area next time I'm here.

Horrible customer service! I booked a two room suite over a month ago. They emailed me and called…read moretwo weeks before because they over booked and offered me two rooms at a discounted rate. THE NIGHT OF CHECK IN THEY CHARGED ME DOUBLE FOR ONE ROOM rather than giving me the discounted rate without telling me! They sent 2 emails and one phone call to make the change before, but now, nothing! It took two days for me to finally speak to manager after no one else knew what to do. The manager was unkind and treated me like I was a child. He said he didn't have to tell me the room rate changed. None of my other party's room rates changed. HORRIBLE!

We stayed in the downstairs suite which had a ridiculously, wonderfully huge bathroom, our own sitting room and cozy feather beds. Kolleen, The owner, a font of local history and information, gave us an enthusiastic welcome complete with wine, maps and local lore. She had the house relocated to her property in six pieces. It had one owner, previously, whose pictures and writing can be seen on the suite mantle. She also has some of the woman's lace dresses hanging in the wardrobe. The breakfast was eggs benedict, with some of the best hollandaise sauce I've ever had, and she even made a special crawdad sauce for me because I'd never had it before. We loved our stay here and if we ever come back through this way, we'll stay here again. Cozy, friendly and welcoming.

The video at the end entailing the process of sugar cane refining was amazing. Make the drive over. You will not regret it.

We would have missed the best brunch I have had in my whole entire life. A grand home with histoy and tastefuly decorated. My son and I spent a lovely time on their porche and walked their gardens.
