Great location for visiting local distilleries. Downtown Bardstown was only a 10-15 minute walk so we didn’t have to worry about driving after visiting a couple bourbon bars in town.

Amber, Cameron & the rest of staff were so kind & helpful. We had a minor hiccup & they took care of it. The heated salt pool & outdoor fire w/ s’mores was a great way to end a busy (bourbon) day. We’ll be back to the Bardstown Motor Lodge!

Great outdoor area! Rooms average!

The outdoor front light was shining right into our room at night, maybe add a shade underneath the blinds The room smelled musty. Loved the courtyard with fire pit! Was the best part of the hotel!

We loved our stay at the Bardstown Motor Lodge! Our room was clean, updated, and had such a large, cozy bed. The lodge was also so convenient to all the restaurants and shops in town. We went to Bernheim Forest, Lincoln’s Birth Place National Park, and Mammoth Cave which were all just a short drive away. We also enjoyed the fire pits toasting marshmallows each night. Such a great place- we’ll definitely be back!

We had a really good visit here and really liked the rooms and courtyard. The staff was friendly and helpful when asked. The fold out bed was dirty and we had to get fresh bedding for it. The bar wasn't open and the neighboring restaurant wouldn't let us take drinks to the hotel. If we return to this area we would come back here without hesitation.

Bourbon Trail overnight stay

The room was very nice, updated and comfortable. The only complaint about the room was that the AC was too cold. We turned it to 80° and it kept running! Check-in was hard to find, but the staff was helpful and friendly.

Very nice hotel and pet friendly!

This hotel was so gorgeous and so peaceful. The room was extremely comfortable and they had a nice large area for my dogs right next to our room. The restaurant next door was epically delicious. Only thing that was a little weird was they charge you an extra hundred dollars per night in case you order from their restaurant or something but we stayed 4 nights so that ended up being an authorization for $400 out of my account I wasn't expecting... Idk.. Just seemed excessive. Very pleasant stay though. Would definitely stay here again.

This location is great in good weather but not good if it's raining. The walk-up to our room was on exterior stairs that had very slick steps and lots of rain coming in. The rooms are very clean and comfortable. The staff person was sitting on a couch instead of being behind the counter. He had stuff everywhere when I checked in... it was like he was doing homework or something. a girl was hanging out who didn't appear to work there... maybe a girlfriend. The gentleman who checked me in sat on the couch and was unprofessional. I was very disappointed in the interaction with check-in.

Motel is convenient location to Bourbon trail. Hotel is clean. Staff was friendly. We stayed one night. Room needs drapes to absorb sound and block light. We heard lots of outside sounds from road traffic and parking lot. Blinds to not block parking lot lights. Feel like it needs more decor on walls to make it more cozy. Would stay here again but I am not a fan of bathroom barn door. It provides no privacy. Might as well hang up a sheet.

All the pictures for the property show only 1 story, so i never thought I'd need to request ground floor, as hubby is a disabled vet. We were given a 2nd story room w no elevator, so that was frustrating. There is no daily housekeeping and the exterior door to our 2nd story room wasn't fully sealed, so daylight was visible around the entire door. We were told at check in that the type of room we had (king size bed, studio room) for our stay (thursday to sunday) this was the only one available, so it was pointless to mention the door issue to the front desk. The room satisfied the need of a bed & a shower, but we don't plan to stay there again.
