Reviews and Ratings
Hotel DeFuniak was a delightful find during my travels, providing a charming boutique atmosphere and an authentic sense of hospitality. The decor and antique furnishings added a lovely touch, making the rooms a cozy retreat. The staff, particularly Cheala and Tom, were incredibly attentive and made our stay memorable. While we thoroughly enjoyed our visit, I wish we had more time to explore the local shops and attractions nearby.
I had a wonderful experience at the Hotel DeFuniak. The atmosphere was so relaxed, and I truly appreciated the efforts the staff made to accommodate my needs. The breakfast was delightful and a highlight of my stay. However, the room was a bit tight, and the proximity to the train tracks did create some noise at night. Overall, it felt like a cozy home away from home, perfect for future visits.
My wife and I had a memorable stay at the Hotel Defuniak, where we were charmed by the nostalgic atmosphere and warm hospitality from Tom and Pam. Our Romantic suite was comfortable and inviting, though the in-house restaurant was closed during our visit. Breakfast was a highlight, featuring healthy options, but guests should note that the menu changes daily. Overall, this unique hotel is perfect for those looking to relax and enjoy a slice of vintage charm, but be aware that some facilities may not be available during your stay.
