Definitely a top notch hotel!! Loved the aesthetic of the whole property. Everything was wonderful, my only minor complaint is the road noise on the main road…but that’s nothing that anyone can do about. Can’t wait to visit again!

Great little inn in the heart of Bardstown
Fairly comfortable for an inn that dates to 1779, albeit with some modern upgrades
Very warm and friendly staff
Great made to order breakfast
Only complaint was a shower that lacked temperature regulation-went from icy cold to scalding hot
Staff is aware and working to correct that issue
Would definitely stay again on my next trip to Bardstown
