This is a beautifully renovated property perfect for bourbon lovers! The bar and speakeasy are fantastic as is the restaurant. The one thing to keep in mind is the hotel is not within walking distance of downtown. We were able to schedule taxis after talking to the hotel staff. Definitely a great place to stay in Bardstown!

We loved our stay at the Trail Hotel over Memorial Day weekend. We originally planned for two nights but had to extend our stay after our vehicle broke down and we couldn’t find a rental car or service because of the holiday weekend. The staff were incredibly kind, patient, and helpful throughout the entire situation. The hotel is a beautifully renovated former Holiday Inn that was transformed into a bourbon boutique hotel while keeping the original historic structure due to historical zoning. The rooms are spacious, including the standard rooms, with cozy wood finishes and rich colors that really bring the bourbon atmosphere throughout the property. The showers are large and beautifully tiled. There are five bars on-site, including a hidden speakeasy that was a lot of fun. The bartenders are knowledgeable, the drinks are unique, and the wait staff were always friendly and attentive. The property also has a large pool and a 12-person hot tub, both very clean and clearly well maintained. Transportation tip: Uber was unreliable in the area and actually stranded us at Maker’s Mark Distillery. Bardstown Taxi was excellent and offered flat rates around town. Only tiny complaints: there’s no ledge in the shower for easier leg shaving, and the hair dryers are basic, so bring your own if you have thick hair. Bread is not included in your meals, not a deal breaker Overall, this is a great place to fully experience the bourbon trail atmosphere, and we would absolutely stay again.
