Lexington is our mid-point from SC to IL and we frequently take trips to visit my in-laws. They actually found it and recommended it to us so we they stay there just as much whenever they visit come visit us. It is a very nice hotel. Both the exterior and interior are appealing. The room is very clean and the... More

OK. Went to room,guess what? The room smelled like an old ash tray full of butts.Went to the front desk to... More

I stayed here only one night, and left early in the morning. Still, I enjoyed my short stay. The hotel is very close to the U of Kentucky and not far from downtown Lexington. This is a first class property with free wi-fi in the rooms. The breakfast area was large with a good selection. I would stay here again. More

Our family stayed one night enroute to TN. We usually stay in Holiday Inns because they are consistently good and we know what to expect. This location was very nice, clean and comfortable. The staff was very friendly. About an hour after check-in, the power went out in the bathroom. No lights, no electricity. The staff quickly moved us to... More

Stayed several times for business and never had any issues at this nice HIE. Staff was very friendly. Front desk and breakfast hostess were especially helpful and asked several times if there was anything further they could do to make my stay more comfortable. This time stayed on a Sunday night. Property was full of many families. Safe area. DQ... More

For a quick trip, this is only ok. No restaurant within walking distance, the parking lot is very weird with very limited parking. I had to park in the back of the building which did not feel especially safe as a female parking out there alone. The front lot was small and filled up at 4:00, then when I returned... More

I have stayed at this hotel off and on while my son played football for UK. They made my family feel welcome each and every stay. The staff made a point to learn our names and to ask how my son did each game. I also had to stay with my son during his football career three times as he... More

I chose to book a room at the Holiday Inn Express Downtown because it was near where I needed to go in Lexington. However, along with proximity to my business meeting locations came proximity to a freight train rail line. The hotel was literally a block or 1.5 blocks away from a rail line and freight trains were chugging through... More

As early retirees we have traveled quite a bit and experienced many "good to not so good" places within the price range of this hotel. As we have now stayed at this Holiday Inn Express several times I must say that it is heads above the competition. It seems that the management and staff are always looking for an opportunity...

This is really the only hotel that is affordable around UK's campus. It has plenty of parking and is centrally located between Broadway and Nicholasville. It's within 15 minutes of almost everything in Lexington, so you're not on the wrong side of the city at any point in time- which, with the way that Lexington is designed, can be a... More
