Top The Kentucky Theater Hotel Reviews

Lexington Marriott City Center

10/10 Excellent

"Great spot!"

The Sire Hotel Lexington, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"Good location"

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."

21c Museum Hotel Lexington

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is very nice. We had a room on the top floor with a view out the NW facing the visitor center. The room was clean and ready. The bathroom was really nice, and well laid out. The bar is still not open so don’t go by the pictures in the listing, but it wasn’t why we picked this hotel anyway. The staff were friendly, helpful and non intrusive. The art galleries are nice but limited. The location is great if you want to stay downtown but for the price, parking should be included at the lot across the street. It’s Lexington KY not NYC… No breakfast included but we could walk easily to a nice little place a few blocks away."

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"

Newly Renovated 2BR Apartment w/ Free Parking in Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent stay, great host, clear communication every step of the stay!"

HOUSE OF ROCK - DOWNTOWN, RUPP ARENA, KEENELAND, HORSE PARK

8/10 Good

"The property was clean, comfortable and well appointed. My only observations are that there is only one bathroom upstairs in the master BR. The second upstairs bedroom is small and you need to go downstairs for the bathroom. Also, the neighboring homes are not in as good condition as this house. We had a great stay, as there was a very nice bakery a block away, and the location is good."
