Lexington Marriott City Center

10/10 Excellent

"The property and our stay was excellent. If I could improve it, I'd like to have movies on demand (for a price of course) and better selections for room service food."

Residence Inn by Marriott Lexington City Center

10/10 Excellent

"This is definitely a very well maintained. Very nice hotel. I stayed on the residence side of the Marriott but everything was perfect. Car was safe in the under ground parking garage right there at the property easily accessible to have everything. The breakfast was amazing. The rooftop restaurant and bar has a very large list of spirits. The food is amazing. Also at that rooftop restaurant all around is a great experience. For the one night me and my fiance were there."

Bourbon Condo Downtown Lexington

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect for our overnight stay. Walking distance to great restaurants and bars. Will definitely recommend and return."

175 LEX - Spacious Two Bedroom - Near Rupp Arena!

8/10 Good

"Room needed to be swept and mopped. There was and trash in the floors. The couch needs a good cleaning, one of the bar stools is broken. We found bottle caps and q-tips left in the room that were used. The couch was very uncomfortable for one of our guests. We did find a roll out cot that was helpful. The elevator was out of service, which wa beyond control. The location was great and the condo was very pretty, there was just some additional cleaning/ maintenance that needed to be done."

175 LEX - Walkable Downtown Lexington Condo

10/10 Excellent

"I would stay at this condo again if traveling to Lexington. The location was absolutely perfect for walking throughout the city. Lots of restaurants and bars nearby. Parking instructions made it easy to know where to park a car for the entire stay. I felt safe in the area. A police station is right across the street as well. The bed was comfortable. Lots of hot water in the shower. Very modern decor. Plenty of pots & pans to cook meals. No dishwasher tablets available, so I had to hand wash the dishes. Only one dish towel and no hot pads for cooking/baking.Was nice to have laundry available in the condo, along with laundry detergent.There weren’t any cleaning supplies or vacuum and the floors were pretty dirty. The mirrors also were not cleaned at all."
