Blue Moon Guest House

Great location, can’t say enough about what a unique and cool stay this is. Check in and check out are a breeze. The night I was there the saloon had a great band, and all the staff there were very friendly and helpful. I will definitely be back!!

House was clean and neat. We had what we needed in the bathroom and rooms. The way to the bar was great. Awesome atmosphere. Good parking. However the washer did not work, we had to hand wash clothes. However the dryer worked. Would have liked more blankets because it was a chilly night.

Blue Moon offers a simple but cozy space with a warm, welcoming staff and cute decoration. Amenities are relatively basic but include everything you need. We stayed on a Saturday night and though the music was audible from our room, there wasn’t any significant noise issue. The location is especially convenient as you’re walking distance to downtown Lafayette.

I love this place! I stayed in The Bird's Nest room. The room has a vintage charm. I came to Lafayette specifically to see a band playing at the Artmosphere saloon right across the street from the Blue Moon Saloon. Both places have a wide variety of great bands. A couple of nice places to eat are also across the street. So if you want a place to relax in style, listen to great music, and eat well. This is the perfect guest house. If you have physical limitations, you should ask specific questions in advance. For the example, the Birds Nest is on the second floor accessed by a very steep and winding staircase. I will definitely be back in the future.

What a warm, wonderful, unique place! I cant overstate how perfect this place was for us- comfortable, spacious, and very much a part of the community. The bed was fantastic, with plenty of pillows, MY FAVORITE. Our room was generous sized and full of light, with posters from past Blue Moon music events covering one wall. We had a deck overlooking the yard, where we enjoyed our morning coffee (free, in the kitchen). Downstairs there is also shared spaces-a full kitchen, dining room and living room, with cozy spots everywhere to read or chat. I loved the mismatched cups and plates, and all the tools to make a meal. The outdoor spaces are incredible- with a back porch bar open in the evenings, its a great place for casual mingling with the locals. We were there for Wednesday Cajun Jam night- and the musicians who showed up were incredible! We loved talking with local people and dancing the two step on the wooden floor. I mostly valued the informality, warmth and generosity that I felt from the hosts, spaces, clientele and staff. Thank you so much for a memorable stay!!

This was a return visit and was one of the best. I was meeting 5 old USMC buddies. We arrived on a Thursday and stayed through Monday. Music I start the review with Music. The people of Lafayette have music embedded in their souls including our friend AJ of AJ and the Bad Cats. The culture is unlike anywhere else I’ve been in the USA. There was live music on Friday night ($5 cover) and Saturday night ($10 cover with three bands). Friday was a jam session made up of local musicians many who have never played together. The talent was off the charts. Saturday drew a younger crowd. Few were over 30, but again the people were all about the music. I only caught the last band and they were incredible. Room I stayed in The Balcony Room which I had stayed the three visits prior. My five friends each had their own rooms. A comment I heard from one friend was how clean his room floor was. He commented that he had walked about the room barefoot and checked his feet and found them completely clean which was kind of funny. It caused me to test The Balcony Room floor which I did and I too had the same result. The Blue Moon is clean. Late night several of us were hanging out on the country front porch. A local musician passed by and was invited to play on the porch. We received a private concert by a very talented musician who is called Watson. This kid is going to draw a crowd. I hope to be back soon.
