Top Bardstown Hotel Reviews

Distill-Inn

6/10 Okay

"Property was super clean. We enjoyed our stay."

Holiday Inn Express & Suites Bardstown by IHG

2/10 Terrible

"No towels in room on arrival. When I went to desk to request towels I was told they couldn’t dry linens .Fire doors opened to stair wells no closed due to carpeting . Elevator inspection expired. Pool was not maintained: slime residue on pool. I had bathed grandson in antibacterial soap. Door to pool area was rusted, safety closure not functioning , propped open with a towel. Ants on multiple surfaces in our room . Required me to clean room with sanitizing wipes. Fire occurred Sunday morning in the laundry room requiring , evacuation. Smoke in hallway of second floor because the doors weren’t closed. Poorly staffed. I was in room 202."

Bourbon Capital Inn

8/10 Good

"Room was pretty clean and spacious. The young lady who checked us in was friendly and nice. The sink needs a larger countertop. There were 2 of us staying (my wife and I in a king-size room) and there wasn’t enough room by the sink for both of us to store our toiletries. Also, they gave us enough bath towels and washcloths but only one hand towel. There should’ve been two hand towels. There were a couple small holes in the fitted bed sheet—not a good look. Also, *we* had to be the ones to put the TV through the channel-scanning process. This should’ve been done by hotel staff before we arrived. Overall it’s a good place and I’d stay there again but fixing or improving those little details as listed above would make a big difference. Thank you."

The Trail Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay at the Trail Hotel over Memorial Day weekend. We originally planned for two nights but had to extend our stay after our vehicle broke down and we couldn’t find a rental car or service because of the holiday weekend. The staff were incredibly kind, patient, and helpful throughout the entire situation. The hotel is a beautifully renovated former Holiday Inn that was transformed into a bourbon boutique hotel while keeping the original historic structure due to historical zoning. The rooms are spacious, including the standard rooms, with cozy wood finishes and rich colors that really bring the bourbon atmosphere throughout the property. The showers are large and beautifully tiled. There are five bars on-site, including a hidden speakeasy that was a lot of fun. The bartenders are knowledgeable, the drinks are unique, and the wait staff were always friendly and attentive. The property also has a large pool and a 12-person hot tub, both very clean and clearly well maintained. Transportation tip: Uber was unreliable in the area and actually stranded us at Maker’s Mark Distillery. Bardstown Taxi was excellent and offered flat rates around town. Only tiny complaints: there’s no ledge in the shower for easier leg shaving, and the hair dryers are basic, so bring your own if you have thick hair. Bread is not included in your meals, not a deal breaker Overall, this is a great place to fully experience the bourbon trail atmosphere, and we would absolutely stay again."
