My best friend and I stayed at the Manchester as part of our girls weekend on the KY Whiskey Trail and wow, we could not have enough good things to say about the property. The food was fantastic both downstairs and upstairs at the hotel restaurants and bars. The design is beautiful and the beds were very comfy. Would absolutely stay here again. 10/10 recommend.

The Manchester-Lexington is phenomenal with its dark wood and eccentric vibes! The staff is exceptionally accommodating and customer-focused. There are plenty of opportunities for cocktails, food, and relaxation at any of the three on-site culinary/bar spots. This was a repeat visit, and I plan to return!

What a gem!!!

What a gem! Housed in a vintage 19thc brick former printing building no detail was left unturned. The common spaces are appointed with comfortable furniture that beckons you to sit down and enjoy a drink or cup of tea. The bar & restaurant features bespoke bourbons not easily found in other parts of the country. Cocktails are amazing & inventive. The chef is extremely talented and offers a menu featuring outstanding local purveyors from artisanal cheese makers to meat vendors all served with a nod to Latin cuisine. Everything we tried was simply delicious and served in a a relaxed and friendly environment. As for our room - I was so impressed with the design - the beds are extremely comfortable, the linens are very fine. The Manchester is a standout in a field of mediocre properties charging similar prices…I hope you’ll try it…. I found it on Hotels.com and hit the jackpot!

I always stay at this hotel and it’s fabulous but this recent stay was less than expected. Food at bar was really bad this time compared to all my other previous stays and housekeeping failed to leave a shower cap and other necessities in my room ~ so a garbage bag over my head had to make do! Also their notepads on my have a few sheets so I feel that they were skimping this time. As far as a shower cap goes, I was on a sensitive time schedule and couldn’t wait for them to bring one.
