Weekend getaway ❤️

My husband and I were in Lexington for just a little weekend getaway. The hotel was beautiful and the Bourbon smell that was in the lobby was absolutely amazing. We got room service and the food was fantastic! All of the staff that we encountered during our stay was so nice and helpful. We will be returning to this hotel for future stays!

The property is a little dated/run down. The workout facility was nice - plenty of options. The temperature control in our room did not work well at all. It was 73 degrees (way too hot) and we had the window open, it turned down to 68 and running on cool - and it never cooled off. Our friends' room was the same. It has a beautiful ourdoor area.

Nice stay

We were impressed by the hotel lobby ; very cool ambiance that really let's you know you're in Bourbon country. Room was nice and clean. The bed was very firm and the solitary blanket was thin for January; would have been nice to have a blanket in the room or a thicker duvet for such a nice hotel. Over all, good stay.
