The rooms were clean, the staff was friendly, and the atmosphere was unique. Unfortunately, the walls are thing and you can hear every noise made around your room. There is also a set of train tracks out front and trains do pass through at all hours...including 1wam amd 4:30am.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Hotel and room were clean and generally comfortable. A/C control was not intuitive such that the room could have been furnished with an instruction sheet. Once the settings were understood, the system operated just fine. The shower water was overly soft and required more time to rinse soap and shampoo. Overall, the interior architecture and design were appealing. The restaurant and bar (Cypress and Oak) was conveniently connected to the hotel. The food and beverages were very good, despite the staff shortages behind the bar, waiters and kitchen. Be prepared for extended wait times for service. The stay was mostly comfortable and the location was convenient for the purpose of the trip. We would definitely consider The Delegate Hotel for a future trip to Frankfort.
