Holiday Inn Express & Suites Glasgow by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was friendly and helpful. The hotel was well maintained and comfortable."

Sleep Inn & Suites Cave City

8/10 Good

"We were super disappointed in the breakfast…so very limited we had to eat out everyday. A big reason for booking there was the breakfast inclusion.."

Hampton Inn Cave City, KY

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent New Hotel — Great Stay! We had an excellent stay at the Hampton Inn in Cave City, KY. The hotel is brand new, and it really shows. Everything was exceptionally clean, well maintained, and in great condition. Our room was spacious, with a large, comfortable bedroom and a great king-size bed. The hallways are also noticeably wider and more spacious than many hotels, which gives the entire property a very open and comfortable feel. The breakfast was excellent, with a great selection of food and everything fresh and well prepared. It was a definite highlight of the stay. Overall, this is a very nice, well-kept hotel with friendly, comfortable accommodations. We had absolutely no issues during our stay and would definitely stay here again when we're in the Cave City area. Five stars all around! Highly recommended."
