“OK, But.....”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 November 2011

We visited Lexington and found that BOOK EARLY is the key when Keeneland last weekend and UK are playing. Oh My do they Jack their rates. This is a run of the mill Hampton Inn - nothing to right home about and like any college town on lovely fall weekends... they jack the rate to unrealistic for a franchised hotel. The rate is usurious so be wary - this hotel is nothing more than a $100/night place.
By the way - Lexington is a GREAT place to visit - UK, the horses, history and great food.

Room Tip: Liquor Barn - right next door.... Breakfast was good!

Thank you for your TripAdvisor tips and comments about our Hampton Lexington South at the Airport/Keeneland! We just wanted to let you know that during the April and October Keeneland races each year, we do post higher prices, as ALL hotels do in Lexington during these special racing events. Our STANDARD weekend (non-special event) rates range from $99 to $109. Which seems a bargain for GUARANTEED excellent customer service and clean rooms. We have at least 10 excellent restaurants surrounding our hotel, and a great Hampton standard breakfast. Hope to see you again soon! Thank you!

“OK, but better options available”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 July 2011

My family and I stayed in this hotel for one night. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the breakfast was good, but one of our rooms had the odor of stale air freshener, and the furniture and room decor could definitly use an update. This hotel was the best one available for booking at the last minute and if you have more planning time there are much better options in the area.

“Clean, comfortable”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 June 2011

person found this review helpful

We stayed at the Hampton Inn - Lexington South for a weekend trip to Lexington. The hotel was quiet, clean and comfortable. Convenient to downtown and other parts of Lexington due to the nearby Rt 4, Lexington's outer-belt. The breakfast is nothing to write home about but it's decent and fresh. The pool area looked clean although we did not use it or the exercise facilities. There are restaurants within walking distance of the hotel.

“Great Location for Keeneland”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 April 2011

I stayed at this hotel this past weekend and it was great. I don't understand what was going on with previous reviews. The hotel is in a great location to get to Keeneland Race track, which was the main purpose of our visit. It is only about 5-7 min from the track. The rooms were very spacious and very clean. The only glitch was at check in. I had 2 rooms on the same reservation. When we checked in, there was a bit of a problem getting the rooms close to each other. We were on the same floor, but at opposite ends. Oh well, I didn't have small children so it really didn't matter.

The rooms were very clean. The bathroom was a good size with a nice shower head and lots of hot water. The hotel had an indoor pool and hot tub, but I didn't use. There were families using all days we were there.

Breakfast was good both mornings with different choices. The bagel toppers were great as were the made to order waffles.

There are a lot of restaurants within walking distance or an easy drive from the hotel. I highly recommend Azul, which is just behind the hotel. All of the food was amazing. They have a great outdoor patio. Get there early or call for reservations because they were very busy when we were there.

All in all, this was a great hotel conveniently located for spending time at Keeneland or visiting the local distilleries.

“Not worthy of the Hilton name”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 January 2011
1
person found this review helpful

I stay in Hampton Inns often, and this is possibly one of the worst. It is an old property and has some updates, but overall the room seems way overpriced. Pros: decent bed, free wifi, flatscreen tv, free breakfast. Cons: old carpet, small breakfast area, no microwave or fridge in room. Overall, this hotel is just "ok" but seems very overpriced.
