Had a very big spacious room. Staff at check in was nice. Parking lot well lite. Would highly recommend more lighting the bathroom, and over the refrigerator it is dark, the light when you come in door could also be brighter or have a small light over mirror in that area. Outside of the lighting the room was exceptional.

We had a wonderful stay at Holiday Inn Express & Suites Bardstown. The staff were very welcoming and a pleasure to talk to during our weekend stay. We got lots of information about the history of the area and things to do & see. We were very appreciative of all the information.
The room was very clean with a comfortable king size bed. We slept well because of the bed and the quiet room. It was also very nice to have a small microwave and a little fridge in the room.
We enjoyed the large selection of hot and cold breakfast foods both mornings we were there. The food was very good and never allowed to run out, so it was always fresh. The coffee was also very good.
We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely choose this hotel again when we go back to Bardstown. We highly recommend staying here.
