It was a really beautiful establishment in a beautiful location. The staff were very kind. There were a lot of shops within walking distance. including a coffee shop next door.

The room did not have a refrigerator, and there was no room service. The restaurant was only a few steps from the room, but I did not know until after I had showered following an 8 hour drive. It was a little uncomfortable standing in the entry of a fine dining establishment (with wedding parties at the bar) in my ultra casual attire and not feeling well. The restaurant staff were very kind though. I would also say that (for the price) breakfast was really unremarkable. This wouldn't stop me from returning. Just noting for others to know in advance of the stay.

The location was excellent for my purposes. I was able to park the car and then walk everywhere I needed to go.

There was nothing that was really unsatisfactory but 2 things stood out : 1) Booking was advertised as coming with breakfast. At the high prices paid, I was a little surprised that breakfast was only a continental type breakfast and not eggs, bacon, etc. 2) You had to specifically request maid service room cleaning in order to get it.

Beautiful building. Parking was available, just need to have a more convenient entrance. Room was clean, prefer softer pillows and a better show head (may just need cleaning as some of the holes were clogged with little pressure) and the breakfast could definitely be improved upon.

Everything went pretty well, incl. parking, check in, check out and we loved the location in the center of this beautiful city.

The breakfast, like often in the US, is merely coffee and packed food. We did not enjoy it, but we were used to it from previous hotels. Otherwise, there are plenty restaurants of all categories around, so it did not matter, that the hotel own restaurant was closed due to the holiday seasons.

Breakfast was delicious. Good variety and plenty of healthy options. We loved the historical feel of the lobby and room while also enjoying the modern updates. Staff were friendly and helpful. Location was central to lots of restaurant options and eclectic shopping all within walking distance. You must visit the quaint bookstore next door and go to the Natural Bridge. We’ll be back!

Could have used more outlets by the bed but it’s understandable given the age of the hotel. Not enough of an inconvenience to keep us from returning.

convenience to downtown shops and nearby universities. I liked the historical vibe to the building. I’m sure a lot of famous people have been guest at this hotel over the years.

The shower stall design is flawed. The open concept shower stall makes it impossible to keep water from making its way to the bathroom floor. There are no vending machines in the hotel, refrigerators or microwave ovens in rooms. I assume the current electrical system limitations prohibits having such items in the hotel. For the amount paid for a room, such amenities are taken for granted that they will be there. Read carefully about this property before you book and you won’t be disappointed.

This is a quaint hotel that's well maintained. It may be small but the overall decor in the main areas as well as in the hallways are great. The room is comfortable. The shower has plenty of water pressure. I also like the fact that it's right in the middle of Lexington so it's easy to walk to dinner and visit other parts of the town. Overall it's great.

Absolutely loved the downtown location. Plenty of parking in the back. Great room for a great price, and complimentary breakfast. Overall, this was a great one night stop on our way through the state and would absolutely go back!

There was no mini fridge in the room, but this was not a deal breaker at all. Just something to be aware of if you're used to them. We had a lovely experience here.

Grand building. Clean. Comfortable bed and pillows.

Beautiful old building, which means few electrical outlet in room for plugging electronics. Included breakfast consisted of wrapped bagels, packaged pastries, yogurt, apples, oranges, bananas and fresh coffee - not exactly appetizing. The dining room is too small. The hotel in on a main shopping street. We stayed one night, a Monday night. Only 2 restaurants open on Mondays and both had long wait times.

The hotel had a cool old-world elegance to it and was very conveniently located in the middle of Lexington. The room was very nice, though the shower was a bit odd having no door.

Parking was free and convenient but the lot was very hard to navigate - small and crowded. Some parts of the hotel were not open on the weekdays we were there which was disappointing.
