Lou Lou’s Jungle Room at the Lafayette Hotel

Lou Lou’s brings a New York jazz nightclub atmosphere and live music to the Lafayette Hotel’s historic clam shell stage once graced by Bob Hope. The interiors of Lou Lou’s Jungle Room bring all the glitz and glamor of 1920’s jazz club culture back to life. The historic concrete cast clam shell stage has been restored to its former glory and a refurbished hardwood dance floor has been installed—emphasizing that this space was built with the intention of encouraging patrons to cut loose. Other luxe details include a red fringed ceiling surrounding the venue’s circular bar, plushly upholstered banquettes, ornate custom light fixtures, and lots more animal print. Regularly scheduled live entertainment is open to the public Thursday through Saturday, as well as added dates. San Diego jazz trumpet legend Gilbert Castellanos has a standing monthly residency. With a capacity of 580, Lou Lou’s not only brings a unique supper club experience to the city but also fills a void for mid-size music venues where showgoers can enjoy live music in an intimate, comfortable setting.
