Hampton Inn

Probably the nicest chain hotel in the area, which isn’t saying much. I’ve been in nicer Hampton Inns, and I’ve been in some less nice than this one. The room is clean. That’s sort of the extent of the positives.
The not as great aspects were as follows:
*the wifi is pretty dreadful. Sure, it’s free. But it’s very sluggish.
*our room is directly next to the pool, and it is so loud, at all times of day and night.
*the woman who checked us in at the desk was thoroughly rude. She treated us like we were stupid and interrupting her evening. Honestly the top requirement for a front desk clerk is to be welcoming. She was not. Maybe we got her on a rough day. Who knows.
*the toilet in our room constantly runs. I called about it and they never sent anyone during our 3 night stay to check it out.
*there are no fans in the bathroom. I never understand when hotels don’t include bathroom fans. Automatic negative review from me.
Bardstown seems like an armpit of a place, and I’ve seen some real armpits.

We stayed at the hampton inn this weekend with our aging lab mix. The room was clean, the hotel is in a convenient location and attentive staff! We were and most importantly our dog was very comfortable for the weekend

we were displaced on May 1^st, 2014 by an apartment complex fire. we’ve been at the Hampton Inn since then. The staff is unbelievably courteous. They’ve gone above and beyond on some days. I’m in a wheelchair and do my best to do things on my own. They seem to pick up on when I’m having a bad day and help me carry a food tray upstairs or other items I might have in hand. They always ask how we’re doing and if we need anything. Even the manager is friendly. I’ve never had this good an experience with hotel staff. I will definitely miss my morning waffle and the robust coffee. I will never forget the niceties of this staff. I highly recommend Bardstown Hampton Inn to anyone needing a place to stay while venturing through the Bourbon Capitol of the World.

Our group had booked rooms for 3 nights at a very unsatisfactory hotel over near the State Park in Bardstown. Somehow, we were able to get a full refund on those rod and we moved over to the Hampton Inn. Some websites online would have you believe there is only a ½ star difference between our previous hotel and this Hampton Inn. That ½ star is he largest possible difference I have ever encountered. This Hampton Inn was like a 4 Seasons compared to the place we left. Hampton exceeded our expectations. The rooms are very clean and nice with all the amenities you could need. The free breakfast is one of the best ice ever had. Our whole group was so giddy that we were able to move to this luxurious hotel. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. There are restaurants in walking distance. The pool is clean. I really can’t say enough good things about this hotel. I doubt you will find a better place in Bardstown.

Someone described this as the best hotel she has ever stayed at on a budget. I won’t judge whether or not that is true. Maybe this is the best hotel she has ever stayed at on a budget. But I don’t know if I understand what the parameters are for being «on a budget». When are you not on a budget? What is the nicest hotel you have stayed in under those circumstances? How often are you staying on a budget vs. not staying on a budget. Who determines your budget?
These all need to be answered before I can get behind this review.
As far as my experience goes, this place was fine. I’d stay again if I happened to be in Bardstown which by no means to I ever expect to be in again. So basically, three stars. Over and out.

I’ve stayed at quite a few Hamptons in my day. I picked this one in Bardstown because I was looking for something predictable during our visit and this one did not disappoint. When I stay at a Hampton, I expect coffee 24/​7, comfy beds, and good bedding. What made this one stand out beyond the others, was that our room was CLEAN, sparkling effing clean. When we were leaving I caught sight of one of the housekeeping personnel on her hands and knees scrubbing the floors in another room. Damn, I have been in plenty of hotels where that has not been the case.
As far as amenities, there are 1 – 2 low-​cost restaurants within walking distance and they have a pool but no jacuzzi to rest your poor sore tourist muscles.

My friends and I stayed at this hotel for one night while on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail. I would like to say that the hotel is just your average Hampton Inn, but it’s slightly below average in terms of cleanliness. Our bathroom had small hairs all over the floor and tub, and the rooms could probably use a bit of remodeling/​renovating. The staff, however, were pleasant and professional. The breakfast was really good and even had boiled eggs (which I don’t typically see at other Hampton Inns).

This is the best hotel I’ve ever stayed at on a budget ($ 89 with AAA membership). It has a free work out room and indoor heated pool provided at extensive hours. The complimentary breakfast serves just about everything you could ever want and more. The hotel has free wifi and a very helpful staff. And our room came with all the amenities — king-​sized bed, flat-​screen tv, love seat and coffee table, desk, mini fridge and microwave.

Stayed here on a recent trip back to my home town. Enjoyed being close to home but as far as a service oriented management team, it is not. From the GM to the front desk they need help. However, the breakfast crew and the housekeeping staff were wonderful. Just be prepared to be ‘argued with and intimidated’ if you need to discuss an issue with the upper management.
This rating is based on the treatment we received from the GM and the front desk people.

I think the price is pretty steep for staying in Bardstown — around $ 120/​night. However, it was the best option for the area. It was clean, beds were comfy, and had nice amenities, so I will give it 4 stars for that reason.

This hotel was great. I have paid twice as much for less. They also have a very nice pool/​gym. And a decent free breakfast.

I travel full time for work and our company stays at Hampton Inn’s most of the time. I really like this hotel line because it is great for business travel but also feels very welcoming. This particular location in Bardstown is fantastic. Their management, housekeeping and service team are all exceptional. We used their conference room for two weeks and had to ask their front desk staff to fax/​copy documents all day. This was not their job but they were happy to do it and they were a huge help. Ted, Marilyn and their entire team really know what it means to be friendly and provide great service. As far as the actual hotel goes the rooms are very clean, the breakfast is very good and this site has a pool and gym. I did not use these two amenities but both areas were clean and well kept up. Bardstown was also a cute city my only complaint was that the downtown stores are only open 9am-​5pm and closed on Sundays so if you are working full time you cant really see much. This is a great place to stay if you are in town for the Bourbon Festival too.
