Top Bernheim Arboretum and Research Forest Hotel Reviews

Distill-Inn

8/10 Good

"Nice hotel, comfortable and great location. Quick and friendly check in, nice lobby. Good breakfast, there is no restaurant as Hotels.com states just a bar, also no elevator so specify first floor if needed. Only one ice machine available in bar area and one coffee machine so at breakfast time be prepared to wait in line for coffee. Overall would stay again due to great location."

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Bardstown

10/10 Excellent

"One night stay. Very clean hotel, which is one of the top things we notice. The staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good. Will stay here again."

Baymont by Wyndham Louisville Airport South

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean, Continental breakfast was fine, Apples, Oranges, Waffles, Yogurt, Muffins, Bagels to name a few and of course Coffee, Tea, Milk and Orange juice. The only knock is the planes, I think UPS that take off at around 3am for about an hour, but then the hotel is next to the airport so it is to be expected. Next door to an Olive Garden."
