Reviews and Ratings
I had a decent stay at this hotel. The rooms were comfortable and clean, but there was ongoing carpet installation across the hall. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, offering helpful advice on exploring Lexington. The location was convenient and close to everything, making it easy to enjoy the area. The dining experience was affected by renovations to the main restaurant area, but overall, it was an enjoyable stay.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The location was great for attending events at Rupp Arena and family gatherings, but the ongoing lobby construction was a downside. The staff was friendly and helpful, ensuring a wonderful experience despite some room disturbance, and the dining was on the expensive side yet worth it for the quality. Overall, a reasonably good value for the price.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were clean and comfortable, reflecting the pictures shown online. However, it was a bit inconvenient as they were blocked by the bride's family and seemed to be missing some furniture. The service was excellent, with a nice variety of equine expertise in Lexington and the staff being extremely friendly and polite. The location was fantastic, close to the Lexington Dinner Train, offering beautiful surroundings for family gatherings. The dining experience was decent but overpriced, suggesting potential improvements for future guests. The facilities were well-equipped, ensuring a satisfactory stay.
