We had a fantastic stay at the Manchester. The hotel is beautiful - the lobby had a nice energy and the rooftop bar was gorgeous. Our waiter was particularly great - very helpful and full of great recommendations for Lexington. The rooms were decorated thoughtfully and were very clean/comfortable. Best part - walking distance to the distillery area and free shuttle service at night to the city or anywhere else you want to go (we loved our driver Sam). We will definitely stay again - highly recommend!

An almost perfect hotel! Incredible food, drinks, decor, staff etc. The only downside was quite possibly the most uncomfortable bed I’ve ever slept in which is a pretty big deal for me as I’m spending most of the time at the hotel sleeping. The king bed, was stiff as a board but also horribly misshapen/worn with sunken areas. Back pain sufferers beware!

This property is as advertised, a cool historic older B&B that’s got lots of character and is centrally located. The breakfast is solid and the Inn Keeper is a really nice guy who personalizes the experience. Their outdoor patio is very nice.
