Top Downtown Arts Center Hotel Reviews

21c Museum Hotel Lexington

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the art gallery"

The Sire Hotel Lexington, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"The hotel is ideally placed to access nearby places of interest and restaurants on foot. The rooms are a good size and the bathroom/shower was very good. The room was properly maintained each day. My only issue centred around breakfast - there was fresh fruit each day and the scrambled eggs and toast that I had was fine but porridge pots to warm up and cereal in a box! -I expected more given the daily cost. Additionally the coffee could have been a better quality."

Morrison Cabin Offers The Finest Interiors, Unique History & Very Best Location

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay at Morrison Cabin. It’s a comfortable, clean, historic home in a fantastic, walkable location. Having free parking was an added bonus. A great place to stay while enjoying everything the area has to offer!"

Residence Inn by Marriott Lexington City Center

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice, clean, and modern hotel. Desk staff was super friendly. Charming little "Convient store" in the lobby. Central location within walking distance of several shops, restaurants, Rupp Arena, and more. Parking lot located underneath was helpful. Only MILD complaints would be the breakfast bar was a little cold and mostly empty by 9:40 even though breakfast is served until 10... and the room was supposed to have a white noise machine but it didn't, and it was very loud until after 1am with people drinking and playing live music at bars around the hotel."

Gratz Park Place-Historic District- Walk Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, very comfortable updated living spaces. Kitchen is perfect! The elevator worked perfectly to get everything upstairs and was such a cool extra. Parking is a little challenging unless you have a smaller vehicle, but not unmanageable. The historic district is beautiful, and an easy walk to downtown and everything Lexington has to offer. My only request would be to upgrade the bed situation. Only one king. Maybe queen beds instead of full, and the 4th floor twin beds could be upgraded to fulls or trundles."

Best Downtown Lexington location! + free parking

10/10 Excellent

"This property is updated, modern, and very clean. It has a very large walk-in shower in the primary bedroom and a shower and tub in the guest bedroom. Both baths have dual sinks. It's a little pricey, but if you are looking for location, location, location, this is the place! Easy walking distance to some of the best restaurants in Lex e.g. Frank & Dinos and Dudley's. Loved Stella's Deli for breakfast, too. We were there for Keeneland racing and UK football. UK won on Saturday night and the party in the street/adjoining parking lot was still going strong at 1 pm. Great news, the condo was very well insulated from street-level noise so we weren't bothered at all. Free parking with an easy drive to UK, Keeneland, and surrounding areas. MC"
