Great house - Lovely stay

My room was perfect and so comfortable. 5 Stars for AC at this time of year - and for the great little sound machine Kathy includes! Not that it was noisy at all at night - just a really nice extra! Love that I was able to walk from the house to coffee & breakfast 1 block away in the morning and to 3 different - and great - places for dinner each eve! Truly enjoyed my stay!

I am afraid to say how great it was, they’ll get super busy and might not be available the next time. I love visiting Paris, KY, and this was within walking to so much. It is an old home and you can sense the history. It was clean, comfortable, and the owner is a lovely host. Plus, I met an adorable kitty that visited to say hi.

Bluegrass Hospitality 🐎

Kathy’s place is clean, quiet, and steeped in the history and culture of Paris Kentucky’s horse and bourbon culture. This historic home is a block away from Main Street food, drink, and boutique shops. Kathy has an art gallery downtown as well as a studio on the main floor of the house where aspiring artisans can take lessons and create. If you are looking for an experience, this is your place.

Perfect location

My husband and I drove to Paris, KY for a long weekend to celebrate our anniversary. Artistic lodging is located just a block off the Main Street. The spacious room is on the second floor of this beautifully restored home with original beautiful floors, a nice kitchen on the first floor and beautiful artwork adorning the walls. The full bathroom adjoining the room is also spacious and included everything necessary for our stay. The bedroom is nicely furnished and very comfortable! Everything was clean and we really enjoyed staying here

Visit to PARIS! No not Paris France, but PARIS, KY

We greatly enjoyed our recent stay in Paris, KY celebrating our 61st wedding anniversary. The "Art on High" lodging was perfect with a central location downtown within walking distance to several excellent restaurants. The lodging was perfect for our needs and highly recommend this lodging & host.

Downtown artsy Bed and Breakfast

My husband and I were pleasantly surprised at the cozy feeling of the little town this bed and breakfast is settled in. The house is used not only for a B/B but for art purposes as well. We enjoyed the decor and the spin on an older home! The house is within 3 minutes walking distance of Main Street. The home is in the process of some repairs but it did not hinder our experience whatsoever!

Charming Antique House

We stayed at Art on High in November while attending the Breeder’s Cup horse races in Keenland ( near Lexington) and really enjoyed the accommodations. Kathy has restored this lovely home beautifully featuring some artwork by her students. There is still some construction going on but it did not affect our stay at all. The location was convenient to walk into town for meals and the drive to Lexington was not too long and beautiful horse farms along the way. We would definitely stay here again. Thanks Kathy!

Quality Room

This was a perfect room for us as we were attending a 4 day event at Kentucky Horse Park. Paris, KY was an easy and beautiful drive to and from event. The Room/Bathroom were clean and cozy. However, the road construction on the street (realize owner has no control over this) was ridiculous to deal with. For our needs, just a place to sleep, it didn't matter all that much, but if you need to be in and out of your room throughout the day, probably best to wait until that construction is done. And you will get your workout with the stairs to get to your room, especially with luggage, which is expected in an old Victorian style home. Kathy was amazing and up front about the construction (delays) and we truly wish her the best in setting up these rooms for boarding. The city of Paris, KY needs to get their act together and finish the road! We don't see how any business can survive that chaos!

Visit the B&B in Paris!

We just returned from Paris.... Well, Paris, KY that is. But this was a great trip to Keeneland and then a very pleasant drive to Paris. It's a historic home that is being restored, but also an art school for kids during the week. Great art work adorns the walls. It has some curb appeal but it's still a diamond in the rough on the outside, but look deeper at the inside. We loved the large king room on the decor floor, the decor, and the interesting shower in our private bath room. Room was very clean, comfortable and we slept well all night. Paris had a very nice downtown representing the perfect still thriving small american main street. What a surprise. Really, it's something great to see in this day. We truly enjoyed it all. There are several nice eateries within walking distance also. Our breakfast in the morning was simple but pleasant with yogurt, granola, fresh muffin, and coffee that we self-served. Good value for the $ overall. The key in the door lockbox was a little awkward, as we weren't sure if we could take it with us or use it and return it for the other guests, but we managed fine.
