The Spotlight on Hotel at the Lafayette A Trademark Collection Hotel

Historic Charm Just Minutes From the Music

Modern convenience meets vintage elegance at Hotel at the Lafayette A Trademark Collection Hotel. Located in the heart of downtown Buffalo, this beautifully restored hotel is set inside a landmark building just a short walk or quick drive from major music venues. With a classic-meets-contemporary vibe and thoughtful amenities like free WiFi and an on-site café, it's a great base for music lovers hitting the town.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel's location is a major win—you're only a 15-minute walk or 4-minute drive from KeyBank Center, making it easy to get to your gig and back. While there’s no on-site parking, the central location means you can rely on rideshares or public transit. The 24-hour front desk makes late check-ins a breeze, and the vibe is relaxed enough for a post-show wind-down.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a stylish, central place to crash
  • Solo travelers attending a must-see concert
  • Couples turning a show into a weekend escape
  • Fans seeking peace and quiet after a loud night out
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who still want style and comfort

Food and Drink Options

Though the hotel doesn’t serve full meals, guests get a discount at Public Espresso, the café right off the lobby offering fresh-roasted coffee and pastries—perfect for a late morning after a night out. While there’s no restaurant or room service, the surrounding area is packed with local eateries open late.

Nightlife Options

Buffalo’s nightlife is right outside your door. Bars, pubs, and lounges are just a short walk away, whether you’re craving a local craft cocktail or want to keep the music going after the show. While the hotel itself doesn’t host live music, its downtown location puts you in the middle of it all.

What People Say

Guests love the historic architecture, friendly staff, and clean, cozy rooms. Many highlight the easy access to concert venues and appreciate the hotel’s charm and value. The on-site café also gets strong reviews for quality and convenience.

Areas for Improvement

The hotel doesn’t offer parking, so you’ll need to plan ahead if you're driving. Also, meals aren't included and there’s no full-service restaurant—but with so many food options nearby, most guests don’t mind.

The Bottom Line

If you're headed to a concert in Buffalo and want to stay somewhere stylish, central, and relaxed, Hotel at the Lafayette is a great pick.

Exceptional - 5.0 out of 5

Nicki, Locke, visiting KeyBank Center

Liked: I loved the building itself - the architecture was stunning and the way that it was decorated went right along with the whole feel of the place. The espresso bar in the lobby was wonderful. The hotel staff was very pleasant and helpful. Our room was beautiful, clean and comfortable. If I ever need to stay in the area again this would definitely be my first choice!
Disliked: The Pan American Grill and Brewery had pretty slow service. The food was so-so and took a long time to get to our table.

Creepily quiet empty old building...

Liked: Quiet
Disliked: For over $230 I would expect to see something outside my window beside another wall and a roof with some sort of utilty.
