I can't believe that no one has reviewed this hotel before. Having driven by it so many times, I was skeptical when my husband said he booked it for our stay in Bardstown. But we had seen a review of it on YouTube and I thought it was worth a shot. It's a mid-century themed lodge that has been tastefully renovated. So firstly, it is every bit as charming and clean as all of the pictures. I used one or two of BML's site pics so you could see how cute it is since there are no other pics on Yelp yet. The beds were so comfortable- like one of the most comfortable beds of all the places and Airbnbs that I've stayed in. The rooms are a great size and, again, it's so clean and charming. Staff is super friendly. There is the most adorable outdoor/ courtyard area where they light fires, have adirondack chairs, and have an indoor area where there is a couch, tv, and bar. You can bring your bourbon score of the day and come have a drink by the fire and roast marshmallows and eat s'mores (s'mores cost $5 tho). It's seriously so cute and cozy. I would stay here again in a minute. Only cons that I could come up with is- I'd maybe prefer a more modern shower, there is a decent amount of noise from the main road, and I would have given this place 6 stars if the s'mores came complimentary with the room. But overall, we were so pleased with this place.

Lux Row Distillers - Where it begins..

Lux Row Distillers

Lux Row was a distillery we hadn't really heard of before our trip, but someone recommended it, and…read morewe're so glad we stopped by. It ended up being a really enjoyable tour. One of the highlights was the delicious welcome cocktail they served at the beginning--it was a fun way to kick things off. Since we visited during the summer, the distillery wasn't actively producing bourbon, but our tour guide still did a great job explaining the process and sharing the history of the distillery. The gift shop was also worth checking out. They carry several different bourbon brands, including Penelope Bourbon, so there was a nice variety to browse instead of just a few labels. Overall, it was a well-run tour with friendly staff and a beautiful facility. I'd definitely recommend adding Lux Row to your Bourbon Trail itinerary.

This distillery in the middle of Bardstown is a relative newcomer, opening circa 2019. Its located…read moreon a large rolling plot of land, featuring a pleasant one car-width drive up to the parking lot and the supersized barn-style visitor center. Rest assured that you exit on a different road, so you'll see no cars trying to run you off on your approach. Worth a stop if you are in town. The structure has two rooms, a gift shop and a tasting room. We skipped a tour (we've been on so many) and headed to the bar. Kelly had a cocktail and I had a flight of Penelope, 1 rye and 2 bourbons. They were solid pours for $17, and I had a decent buzz when I left - the bourbons were 104 and 114 proof, as is the style these days. I especially liked the rye, smooth and spicy. The Architect bourbon was hotter than the barrel proof but both were still good. Lux Row also makes Remus, and the 6 year high rye bourbon is superb - a full bodied, easy drinking pour. If you live in Illnois, its often on sale at Binny's.

The Old Talbott Tavern has recieved numerous accolades & awards over many years & with being built…read morein the late 1700's it has an amazing history with notable guests such as Abraham Lincoln, Jesse James, Daniel Boone & the old exiled French King Louis Phillipe so that in itself is worth the stop for any history buff. Once seated we were given some recommendations by our sever, Bethany, who did an excellent job of taking care of us. So we ended up ordering the Pulled Pork Platter & Shrimp & Grits. Our meals arrived in short order & everything was outstanding. Our only complaint was the acousticss were pretty awful which made carrying on a conversation a little difficult but I suppose there isn't much that can be done about that. All in all we were more than happy with our experience & we will absolutely return again in the future.

Had dinner and drinks here. Let me start off with that are server was great. The drinks were good…read more Massive bourbon list. When it comes to food, total different story. The shepherds pie was just okay. Green fried tomatoes were fine, but missing the mark on the sauce. We ordered a special, souvlaki chicken. It was two skewers of really small, burnt and overcooked chicken with peppers on a bed of what tasted like microwaveable rice. Totally missing the seasoned and bright-herbaceous mix of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and oregano. Just go to the bar. Find some other place for dinner.
