We LOVED everything about our stay. The renovated space is absolutely charming. The staff was very pet friendly. The desk attendant, Ben, helped us with our luggage, provided tips on surrounding businesses, and was very helpful and accommodating the extra efforts it takes to travel with a pup. The stairs only entrance was not a problem at all. The bar space surpassed our expectations and both the offerings and and the bartender, Ms. Morgan, made that stop worthwhile. The entire area around the site was completely charming, clearly the result of a huge revitalization effort. We wished we another few days to stay and enjoy them all. We plan to return.

Honestly, nothing comes to minde.

The location is amazing if you want to hang out downtown at the riverfront area. So many restaurants and bars within walking distance. The hotel is very quaint and nice. The room was very clean and inviting, loved the exposed brick and design. Wasn't a fan of the open tub and shower, but it was fitting for the room. The bathroom (toilet) was in a separate room though, so that was nice. The bed and pillows were very comfortable, but the TV/Cable didn't offer much. The heating/AC panel did not seem to be operating, so the room was a little stuffy during the night. We were also there during a special event (which we did not know about when we booked), so we were not able to go to the hotel bar, which is one of the reasons we chose to stay there. Overall a very cool hotel for an overnight trip.

See above explanation.

We were greeted by Michelle, who was friendly and efficient. Our room was on the ground level. It was quiet although we were surprised to be in a room suited to someone with a disability. There was a rain shower and a lower shower. Towels were soft and the idea of a black flannel/face washer for makeup removal is excellent. The bed was comfortable. It was centrally located to the historical district and easy walking distance. Parking was free on the street or behind the hotel.

The lighting in the room and bathroom was incredibly dim. The coffee machine set up in behind the mirrored cupboard was a little strange, but we survived!

The hotel has a very good location in downtown Paducah. It's original artwork throughout the hotel and in the rooms are were for sale (we bought one from our room). The staff was friendly and hospitable at all times. They provided an at home feel that enhanced the stay.

There were intermittent issues with hot water availability during the 2 night stay. The separate bath & very large shower apparently didn't have a common source. The likely cause was likely (not commented on by staff when informed) was insufficient hot supply at intermittent periods.

Excellent location. You can walk to all the small city sites. The 10 room boutique hotel had wonderful staff that assisted us on all requests. Room was exceptionally clean for such an old building. Ample free parking right out back. Wonderful oversized tub and rain shower. Excellent room coffee.

Our room air conditioner would not stay on, but it was manageable…just had to keep turning it back on. The free standing wet room needed a bath mat to step on when stepping down to the carpeted floor. Bed pillows were to large and firm for my preference. No option for hot water for tea in room, but staff were gracious and provided hot water for me whenever I asked. Two stories with no elevator…you may want to ask for a first floor room. With all that, I would definitely stay there again, overall a lovely experience.

We really enjoyed our stay, the location is amazing! There are shops, restaurants, and bars within walking distance. Our room was on the first floor, nice historic exposed brick wall, super comfortable and clean bed.

Not the hotels fault but woke at 4am to the beeping sounds of a dump truck reversing and picking up garbage.

The hotel was wonderful. The location was perfect for walking to restaurants and shops. Parking on the street or in their lot. Urban industrial type decor/vibe.

The only thing was lack of temperature control in the room, which the staff told me was going to be renovated. The weather was between seasons so very wonky. There is a small portable heater in the room which helped a lot.

Everything about The 1857 is fabulous. Its location is great right at the river. The bed and pillows were incredibly comfortable. The bathroom with the wonderful marble shower and soaking tub was great. The layout of the room with the 2 sitting chairs was awesome. We loved everything about it. It was spotlessly clean.

There’s nothing to dislike about the 1857. The staff is super friendly too.

Neat town with lots of good restaurants and coffee shops. The hotel (in an old shoe factory) is stylish and chic, yet welcoming. A bit tricky to find (no big signs) but the main entrance is on the right hand side going towards the river. Very friendly och helpful staff.

For the price some sort of breakfast could have been included.

We loved the renovation of the old building. The rooms were very simple yet modern. The walk-in shower was the best! Loved being right down town.

No elevator was not a problem for us this time since we did not have a lot of luggage. But for an older person(s), it would be a disadvantage. Stairs was mentioned on the website, however, so it did not catch us off guard
