The hotel was very nice with a nice atmosphere when you entered the lobby. Nice area with a bar and seating area. The room was nicely decorated and was comfortable. Could hear the people next door talking and music thumping from the rooftop bar in the evening. Walls are pretty thin there! Overall the atmosphere and overall experience was good and I would more than likely return.

Great stay at the Manchester. Beautiful lobby and restaurants and super helpful staff. Despite other reviewers complaining about noise, we found it to be quiet and peaceful (stayed 5 nights). Complimentary coffee was excellent and the many of the food items reasonably priced. A few tweaks might make the stay truly too notch but the hotel exceeded my expectations. Probably the closest thing you’ll get to a SoHo house as you’ll get in Kentucky!

The hotel is very nice; however, be advised that the quad room is SMALL. It’s clean, beautiful, and comfortable, but it is small for a family of four. It’s very narrow and there isn’t much room for walking around or sitting.
