Nice stay, charming room with curious closet.
It was certainly an interesting place. I gave it it 4 star because of the noise and sounds outside the room. I guess because it is older, sound proofing was minimal. The room itself had charm and was nicely remodeled with a very nice shower. The closet was a curious thing.

Historic charm, modern comforts
This was our second stay. We love the historic charm with modern amenities. However, this time we learned the hard way to request a room in the inn, not the tavern, if you have bad knees like me or other slight mobility issues. The inn has an elevator, the tavern doesn't, so the stairs were a challenge with luggage. Otherwise a great experience again.

Inn or Out
We stayed Oct 2024. Checking in was easy, even though man was checking in guest and running/seating people in restaurant. Inn is quite old, so windows is room were very drafty & don't lock. Was a chilly night due to storm and heat ran all night. Hard to regulate heat. Room was cold or super hot.
Showers only had warm water, not hot.
Mirrors were so old had film on them.
Had frig, microwave and small TV (30imches maybe)

The room smelled like bleach upon arrival. The toilet seat was wet with bleach. The front desk closed early so we could not tell them and they were not open when we left. Breakfast next door was a great perk. Not a good hotel for light sleepers. We heard the people upstairs every move.

This is a beautifully updated historical property. A delicious full breakfast us included with your stay and you can drink at the world's oldest bourbon bar. It's very walkable to dining, shopping, drinking establishments in town and drivable to others. Our only negative is that, unfortunately, the walls are very thin so we could hear our neighbors conversations and bathroom habits. Additional soundproofing between adjoining walls would be greatly appreciated by guests.

Great town, great inn and tavern, great place to headquarter for a solid bourbon tour. Forget Louisville, this is the place to be for touring bourbon and horse country. Much more reasonable than Louisville for everything. Plan your trip carefully and you can soak it all in.

History with a Bourbon chaser
Very old (18th century) property. Center of town in a very well kept beautiful small town -- the very heart of Bourbon country. Lots of eating and drinking possibilities. We ate in the hotel which had a nice evening meal and an excellent breakfast.

Great location! Historic building!
This was a fun place to stay. It wasn’t a five star property, it’s old & a little bit run down, but I will stay here again! Location is great! Staff is great, room was clean! There is an outdoor patio on the second floor that is a shared space. We sipped bourbon & smoked cigars & had a great time.
