The staff is awesome, amenities and decor were top notch. Can’t wait to return to take advantage of some of the other offerings, for example cryotherapy, speakeasy, and the golf simulator.

The hotel is absolutely beautiful with friendly staff! There were a ton of options to do at the property and the food was amazing!

The place is beyond fabulous, it's superb, the food is fantastic, the drinks mixed with precision of a mixologist. My friend, who turned 50 got to celebrate and have the most amazing experience

Rooms are small but well appointed. This is a trendy but renovated motel, so you enter room from outside. Pool area is great. Restaurant is terrible despite food being good. Waited 2 hours for our dinner with various excuses as to why. Inexcusable. Speakeasy was crowded and noisy, although fun despite no one at the bar knowing how to make basic drinks. They were expensive and terrible. The restaurant managers were going back and forth from unhappy customers to the speakeasy making drinks. What a mess.

Amazing place right in the Bourbon Trail! Great staff. food, drink, and pool with comfy beds! Will be back in December for NYE!

Rough going for a new place. Kitchen has issues, shower drain was slow and pooled around your feet. Double charge that has been a nightmare to handle. Could be a nice place in the future but there a ton of wrinkles to iron out.

The Trail Hotel is a total renovation and modernization of an old Holiday Inn. It is designed around a bourbon theme. The rooms are comfortable and have large bathrooms. The lobby and restaurant/bar areas carry forward the bourbon theme, and they offer excellent experiences. There is a large pool area with a poolside bar and multiple outdoor seating areas with fire pits. The location is ideal. It is right off the Bluegrass Parkway with easy access to downtown Bardstown.

Pros: Good central location if bourbon tasting. Beautifully decorated hotel and everything is new. They did a wonderful job given the room sizes. Lobby and bar are stunning. Cons: at its core, hotel is still a remodeled Holiday Inn style motel. Room entrances are outside, and in rain, you can’t stay totally dry walking down the hallways. Staff acts like they are working at a Holiday Inn and not a higher end hotel. No warm greetings, inexperienced in hospitality, Unprofessional restaurant staff.

Definitely seems to be a motel rather than a hotel, but it’s a bougie one at that. Rooms are nice, restaurant and bars are fantastic and the staff is absolutely amazing. We had a blast and will definitely be going back.
