Honestly, there isn’t enough space for me to rave about how perfect this hotel is. Whoever designed it, hit the nail on the head. It is stunning. Every corner is stunning. Our room was a great size and the bed and pillows are very comfortable. The staff is attentive and friendly. I can’t imagine there is a better hotel in Lexington. The restaurants and bars are tasty and refined. I have not one single complaint. Completely loved the space and would never stay anywhere else in Lexington!!

Beautiful hotel and amazing restaurant. You have to pay for parking or valet even though they have a parking lot right next to hotel. They advertise “soundproof” walls but could easily hear hallway and neighbors. Many surprise surcharges added to bill out checkout. 😐
