Decor and condition was fantastic. We stopped overnight on our way back East, but after our experience, we are considering making a trip back just to stay in the Manchester again. Only drawbacks were limited seating in our room (stayed in the Quad) and both bars were closed by 11 pm on a Thursday night.

We loved the trendy vibe of the hotel — everything felt stylish but still cozy. We ended up eating most of our meals right at the hotel and honestly, the food didn’t disappoint. Service was consistently great, our bed was super comfortable, and the whole place was spotless. Would definitely recommend for anyone who wants a relaxing and tasty stay!

Everything was absolutely incredible. The staff was amazing, the hotel is incredible, the room was extremely clean, well taken care of. It’s nice to travel somewhere, pay a little extra and have my high expectations met. And the SMELL! Whatever the fragrance is that they have pumping through the hotel is wonderful. The in-room bar items are reasonable prices, the CANNED WATER was a 10/10, we loved this place, we will absolutely be staying here from now on when we visit Lexington.

I loved the decor of the hotel. The staff was very courteous. The parking attendant staff seemed to be disorganized at times. I called the front desk to have my car waiting when I was ready to leave for the evening, they had no clue. I stood for 3 minutes and finally asked for my car. Upside: the parking attendant did apologize for the confusion.
