8.6/10 Excellent! (1,034 reviews)
The property is in a nice quiet area close to the UK campus. However, while we were there it was under construction. The staff was very nice, apologetic and informative of this situation. Approximately half of the hotel was under construction and made the upper levels difficult to navigate because of some of the areas being roped off. The breakfast in the mornings and snack/drinks at 5pm were nice. The bartender was very friendly and easy to talk to. I would stay here again and hope the construction is done by the time I am back in town.

Popular places to visit

Halfway through a 3 km loop at Tom Dorman SNP you can take an offshoot down to the sandy banks and be rewarded with views from the belly of the Kentucky River Palisades. The exposed rock is beautiful and it's old. REALLY old. Half a billion years old. I'm still trying to let that number sink in. #paleozoicgeology The walk was short, hilly, and slippery if you have knee problems begin the loop on the east side of the parking lot your joints will thank you once you make it to the stairs.
