Guest Reviews

• Marjorie (4/5): - The property was quiet and clean however the website is completely deceiving. There is NO Spa and NO piano bar. The staff aren’t even there from 10p-8am. Very disappointing.
• Carolyn (10/5): Wonderful! - Perfect place to stay for downtown events. Clean. Lovely decor. Nice staff. Will return.
• regina (10/5): - The view was beautiful with floor to ceiling windows around the whole suite. Room was clean and comfortable.
• Regina (10/5): - Great rooms. Easy walk to downtown
• Verified traveler (6/5): Good but could be great - Very nice front desk clerk; service was good. Room was clean, interesting & with a ton of space; could have been 10x better with some higher end finishes and better soundproofing. Also - there is no spa here.
• Donald (4/5): - Let's be clear on this property; it is not a typical hotel. There is nothing full service about the property. We stayed two nights and did not get service in our room. There is not a restaurant, bar, or full time staff onsite. The housekeeper did stop by at 8 AM on our departure day to give us an unwanted wake-up call. Apparently, the walls are very thin. We had one of two penthouses and had a couple of friends over to visit. The person in the penthouse next door starts beating on the wall and 10 minutes later someone shows up and says we are being too loud. No one was yelling, no loud music, nothing more than some adults talking. Some sound proofing needs to be done so guests do not get bothered for talking in their room. It is ridiculous. There were three TV's with a stack of remotes. Only the bedroom TV had cable. Not sure what the other TV's are for. The towels are lower quality and terribly scratchy. There were no tissues in the bathroom. The shower did not have a door or curtain so you were freezing half the time while showering. I would not recommend this property unless you want to pay boutique pricing and get little value in return.
• Sandra (8/5): - The suite was beautiful, the bed and linens superb. Unfortunately the internet didn’t work and the elevator was broken
• David (10/5): Nice Place to Stay - Excellent location. Like a bed and breakfast without the food.
• Elia (10/5): - Beautiful place!!
• Verified traveler (10/5): - The hotel was wonderful! So unique. Loved the location.
• Terry (10/5): BG’s Best - Great stay and a cool setup. Plenty of space!
• Hope (10/5): - This is the only place where we ever stay in Bowling Green! Just returned home from another great experience. Amazing rooms, perfect location, charming decor, and a great staff!
• Ali (10/5): - We had a wonderful stay at the Kentucky Grand! One of the best boutique hotels I've ever stayed at! They have huge suites, excellent staff & amazing location right in the downtown area! We walked across the street to their partner restaurant Hcikoy & Oak and it was phenomenal! Cliffs of Moher & Insomnia cookies were also a hit! Will be coming back soon!
• Kayla (2/5): - There is no spa. Piano bar was closed. No amenities outside of the room you are staying. Huge waste of money. Stay somewhere else!
• DeeAnn (8/5): - The suite was lovely and clean. Nice view from our room. Bedroom remote wasn’t working properly. No one at the desk when we went to check in. I had missed calls from them, so perhaps they were trying to tell me they would not be available. They were there about 4. Very nice.
• Douglas (10/5): - Beautifully restored and appointed overlooking walkable park.
• JILL (8/5): - Great stay
• Jeanette (10/5): - This hotel is like nothing else you’ll find in Bowling Green. It’s a posh little boutique hotel that elevates the entire downtown area. Our suite had an awesome view of the town square and the rates are extremely reasonable for the quality. Highly recommend!
• Shirley (10/5): Classic Gem in city - Wishing for more than one night! lovely spacious suite with large windows to enjoy the views. Very well appointed decor and comfortable furniture. Location was close to green spaces and fountain square. Best pizza EVER at Alley Pub and Pizza four blocks away made for a nice relaxing evening for tired travelers.
• Patrick (10/5): - The facility is quaint, personable and not a chain hotel (big plus). We had a very pleasant stay. The size of the suite was unbelievably huge.
• Cory (10/5): - Always my preferred location to stay when I visit Bowling Green. Best place to stay in town.
• Billie Miller (10/5): The Ark Encounter - Easy check in and quiet. Great parking. Wonderful room.
• Garrell (10/5): - Loved the cleanliness and quality of furnishings!
• LaDonna (8/5): - This was our second time staying here. There are some facility concerns that need to be addressed by the staff/owner. First of all the hot water heater isn’t big enough to fill the bathtubs with hot water and the water pressure is poor. Second in the second-story Lincoln suite there was a leak coming from the ceiling in the shower around the light. This was extremely concerning this leak did not impact our stay, however. We were also disappointed that the piano bar is now only open for special/private events. I feel this location has a lot of potential, but it’s not utilizing it’s on site. Resources adequately. Overall, it’s a lovely place to stay and the rooms are very nice.
• Kimberly (4/5): - The suite was amazing and different from others. Extremely clean and well maintained. But the check in service lacked a lot. We had never stayed there and they couldnt find our reservation then told us the room and code but never how to get there or where it was. And going in after hours was a little spooky. The back isnt lit up very well and any one can walk up on you. But once we found the room it was amazing. Just the check in service could be a little better.
• LaDonna (10/5): - My husband and I stayed here for my birthday this past weekend. We stayed in the Metropolitan Suite and it was as close to PERFECT as any hotel stay I've ever had! The room was immaculately clean when we arrived! The bed was so comfy and the linens smelled super clean. The suite is super spacious—like the size of a LARGE one-bedroom apartment. This suite could have easily accommodated a small group (3-4) friends. No huge complaints other than we could never find the remote for the TV in the bedroom and I ran out of hot water while taking a bath. Also, Expedia lists that this site has continental breakfast and that is incorrect. Other than that, I would say it’s perfect!!
• Jordan (10/5): - Pleasant 1 night stay. Clean facilities and room. Exactly as described. More spacious than expected. Restaurant and bar is closed except for weekends. Staff leaves after 8p. Key to get in back door in parking lot behind building after hours. Good views of park across the street. Several options for dining and shopping within 1/2 mile. Reduced score for minor inconveniences … light bulb missing/out, small TVs, water not hot enough. Will stay here again.
• Vince (10/5): - Beautiful hotel and modernized. Love it!
• Peter (8/5): - The only place in Bowling Green that my wife and I will stay. However, after waking up @ 7 Saturday morning my wife realized the creamer for the coffee in the room had gone bad, she called and asked for a replacement from the kitchen. Told the kitchen didn’t open until 8, we ask that creamer be brought up… we left at about 10:30 after drinking our black coffee.
• Stephen (8/5): - Good = Very attractive suite, large comfortable bed, nice view of the park across the street. Bad = (1) Confusing "instructions" ("come to the lobby for a door key", but the key was actually in the room). (2) Greeted with a sheet of paper enumerating the "charges" if we took a robe, sheets, didn't return the key, etc. Not very welcoming, and I had no plans to steal your things. (3) Expedia indicated a Continental Breakfast, the confirming email from the property promised a "breakfast basket", there were neither.
• betty (10/5): - Excellent
• Joseph (10/5): - Very beautiful place, and great location. Close to a lot—baseball, arts, there was even a concert in the park across the street. The only concern I had was the air was off when I went in my room, and took o er night to go down two degrees. All in all, I would definitely come back!!
• Gary (10/5): Spacious rooms! - Amazing room. Perfect location walkable to everything we needed.
• Colleen (8/5): Just OK - Beautiful building. Good location. Negatives: very few towels in the bathroom, although when we asked for more, they arrived quickly but with hotel this nice/expensive, you would think the space would be equipped. We were 2 A and 1 K and there were 2 towels. No shower curtain or door, so water got everywhere. TVs stopped working and while we didn't call anyone (it was 10pm) it was a bit annoying for this to happen for the $$. Room was beautiful though and the piano bar was really nice. Kind of felt like the space was so nice that the management could rest their laurels on that. We had better equipped rooms at a Comfort Inn & the like
• Ann (8/5): - Room was great! Very spacious and clean. A little hard to get in touch with front desk. Our last night there was a wedding reception above us and it was extremely loud. We couldn’t sleep.
• Teresita L (4/5): - Our room was very large and beautiful. However the location is run more like an Air Bnb. There was no one at the front desk to check us in. Waited for about 30 minutes for the club manager to come check us in. No breakfast offerings. Restaurant not open weekdays.
• Michael L (8/5): Patiently waiting for my refund! - Great hotel with a great location…Unfortunately, the air conditioning wasn’t working properly. I brought it to the attention of Steve the manager who offered to credit a night stay because of this. Unfortunately, no credit was ever given. I emailed their email address from their website, but nothing has happened???
• spiros (10/5): - Nice boutique hotel. Great location. Large room.
• Michael (8/5): - Good location
• Cory (8/5): - The property itself was great . And maybe it’s just how small nice places are. But communication with staff wasn’t easy. Nobody seemed to be around. I will stay again though.
• Deidra (8/5): - I liked the spaciousness of the suite, it was amazing. I liked the overall vibe and feel of the Hotel, it was very classy. The bed was super comfortable and I liked the toiletries provided. I was unaware of a needed reservation for dinner at the restaurant, and it was closed due to an event anyway. So I had to eat appetizers in the bar next door. The jetted tub was one of the reasons I chose this hotel room, but the hot water ran out before the tub could fill up past the jets, and then drained by itself while I waited for more hot water (drain does not fully plug I'd assume). The room can get very noisy due to upstairs traffic, as well as road traffic below, but overall a decent stay for the price. If the prices were to rise due to season, I would recommend installing inline water heaters for the tubs.
• Roberta (8/5): First timers - Steven, the GM, was very professional and more than accommodating. He is a good example of what a manger should be and went above and beyond making sure we were pleased.
• Andrew (10/5): - Really enjoyed our stay. Great vibe. Restaurant dinner menu was pretty small but drinks were great.
• Verified traveler (4/5): No housekeeping for multi-night stay? Ridiculous - No housekeeping services for multi-night stay - informed at check-in... would've been nice to know this before we booked, getting the room refreshed is pretty much an industry standard. A perfunctory apology.
• Peter (10/5): - The staff was fabulous. Very large, beautiful, and comfortable suite. Nice restaurant in building. Wi-fi needs to be a little stronger (for large room).
• Randy (8/5): - The suites were spacious and comfortable. The bed was fantastic
• Verified traveler (10/5): - I attended a public concert at Circus Park across the street and dinner afterwards. This is a beautiful Hotel and I loved the location and the vibe. I occupied the Bourbon Suite on Floor 3 and was unaffected by street noise.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Beautiful resort, exquisite restaurant, yet affordable. Elevator was broken during our entire 2 night stay and we were on 3rd floor, but the GM gave us 2 complimentary desserts which was very nice of him, we would definitely stay again if in the area.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - The room was beautiful! Shopping and dining within walking distance. A great stay!
• Joseph (10/5): Best experience during a business trip. - This was hands down my best hotel experience so far. The room had everything I needed and more. I slept like a baby and the water pressure was perfect. I ran into the General Manager in Derby the beautiful lounge inside the lobby. Service Outstanding, Room Amazing. This is my hotel of choice in Bowling Green.
