"Lovely modern hotel. Clean and best of all pet friendly. Close to the center of down town Lexington and close to the airport and horse park. Our room had a great view of an historic horse barn. If you love horses it would definitely be a treat to see that view. There was no shampoo in the rooms and one member of staff was openly rude about a customer they were dealing with on the phone. Unprofessional from this particular staff member, but all other members of staff were polite and profession in manner. Over all, a lovely stay, and would be happy to stay again."

"Second time staying up here. Very nice hotel. The only negative was you could hear a door shutting not sure which one but super loud and happened on and off throughout the night and day! Also fyi there is a parking charge of $17.00. All the staff was extremely nice check in and out, cleaning attendants and especially the bartenders."

"Very nice, pleasant hotel, located in a part of the city where there are a lot of restaurants and shops. Cleanliness ok. Breakfasts unfortunately poor, especially compared to the standard in similar class hotels in Europe. But ok, this is the US, a slightly different approach to the customer. ;-) To sum up - considering the relationship between price and quality, I recommend this hotel."

ZZHIGUOLocated in the small town of Paducah, in the heart of the United States, near the river on the Mississippi River, the hotel is overlooked by the Ohio River. The hotel is located in Kentucky, across the river from Illinois. The hotel is very clean and the town is quiet and suitable for rest. The only thing that is not very convenient is that there is no place to shop or eat near the hotel, and the food at the hotel is very simple.

SShawn CruzeI was going to chalk up my experience as an isolated incident and let it fade away. That was until I received a phone call last evening around midnight! A rep. from Trip calling me asking about for my input concerning my stay at this hotel. I relayed to her that I had called Trip.com a couple of months ago right after a friend and I rented a room. We rented a room around 5pm or so. I had expressed that the power in our room - the TV, Lamps, Microwave, Frig., did not work. We put a complaint into the front desk around 6pm. Issue was not resolved until later on, around 10pm approx. About an hour after that is bedtime so 95% of watching TV, microwaving, etc, was wiped out. When I put the call into Trip,.com a couple of months ago, I received no follow up, until last night. Last night the caller wanted feedback about my room. I went over everything that had occurred. She also wanted input on how they could improve. I said, it's very simple, just focus on basic customer etiquette and satisfaction. At no point has any type of recognition been expressed concerning my loss of enjoyment of here said hotel stay. Customer service/satisfaction is becoming non-existent .

GGuest UserWe’ve stayed here before and we really like this hotel! It is decorated in a beautiful modern design, always clean, always friendly and helpful staff. It is very close to restaurants, grocery stores, etc. Erlanger has about anything you could want from a smaller city without the crazy traffic. But you’re close enough to Newport, Covington, Cincinnati that it’s a fairly quick drive anywhere in the metro area. Breakfast has many hot items to choose from. Very nice hotel and we will very likely stay there again in the future.

GGuest UserNice hotel that presents well. It's not in a ”bad” part of town, per se, but it also felt a little more industrial around it than expected. Doesn't have a distinct ”hotel smell” that's usually tied to chlorine or cleaners. Amenities were nice and the room was clean. Someone had pooped on the side of the pool when we had arrived, although that wasn't any fault of the hotel. It was promptly closed for the night and reopened the next morning. Staff was friendly and we can't say there were any real snags. It was a little strange that we booked a room with a king bed and pull-out sofa bed for 4 people, yet upon arriving to the room, there wasn't any linen or pillows for the pull-out sofa. We had to ask for linen, and it was promptly delivered to our room, it just seemed off that we booked the room clearly for 4 people and didn't have the linen for it.

HHendrick2952A standard express hotel with standard configurations. The scenery near the hotel is really wonderful. The Ohio River separates Kentucky and Ohio. The hotel is actually located in New Port, Kentucky, across the river from Cincinnati. The purple iron bridge connecting the two floors in the middle is very beautiful. The sunset is very beautiful. The seafood restaurant opposite the hotel provides coupons. If you show the hotel room card, the dining experience at the riverside restaurant is very good.

MMichaelWe absolutely loved our stay at Staybridge Suites Lexington South. Everything was spotless from the moment we walked in — super clean rooms and common areas. The location was convenient and peaceful, close to everything we needed without being in the middle of chaos. The staff was incredibly kind and helpful every step of the way, and you could tell they genuinely cared. The amenities were top-notch — the kitchen in the suite was fully stocked with everything we needed, and the free breakfast was actually good (not just filler). We felt right at home, and it was perfect for our family. Would 100% stay here again and recommend it to anyone traveling through Lexington.
