    My Old Kentucky Home State Park - Our tour guide outside the home

    Our group of friends ventured from Louisville to Bardstown to enjoy a full day of adventure in this…read morelovely town. We participated in an afternoon tour of My Old Kentucky Home and received a group rate of $12 per person since we purchased at least 10 tickets. The tour of the home is self-guided and typically takes less than an hour and then can allow extra time if needed to check out the grounds and/or the gift shop. On this day, however, we had a wonderful tour guide who was impressive with her knowledge about the house and the residents. The house is beautifully maintained and the grounds are also pristine. The visitor center had seating with the option to view a film while waiting. There is also a gift shop filled to the brim with a multitude of items. Plenty of parking. Restroom facilities are well maintained. Overall, a well maintained historical property.

    On a recent trip to Bardstown, the wife wanted to see Federal Hill, the manison in "My Old Kentucky…read moreHome State Park". According to KY legend, Stephen Foster wrote the song "My Old Kentucky Home" that became the offical state song, while staying at Federal Hill. The park has a beautiful visitors center and the staff in the visitors center was very welcoming and quite knowledgeable. Unfortunately, the timing didn't work for us to take a tour of the manison (hours are on the hour and last 45 minutes). We missed the 2pm tour and couldn't do the 3pm tour since we needed to be back in Louisville to pick up the grandkids. We did, however, take a walking tour of the grounds and we got to see the outside of the manison, the gazebo, the spring house and the Stephen Foster statue. We were there on a beautiful (70 degree) day in February. Despite today's beautiful weather, the gardens still thought it was winter. We want to come back when the gardens are in bloom and when we have time to take a tour of the manison. Admission to the state park and the grounds is FREE. There is a charge for a guided tour of the manison.

    Let's begin by saying the hotel is under construction and renovation. We were not informed nor was…read moreit indicated when booking. 2 rooms, 2 nights, suites with king beds. Checked in -one room wrong. Nothing else available. Ok. Went to room to find the toilet seat abused and the staff did not even clean it disgusting. Can't even correct or move rooms. The hotel is so under construction that you cannot even go to breakfast without going outside and coming back in. And don't ask for hot eggs or a protein. There are no sausage patties, sausage links, or bacon. After one night, no one even cleaned our room. Either room. We do know they enter the room because they took the trolley cart outside of our room. But no maid service. The first morning we are woke by the fire suppression system going off and people banging on our doors to get out. Not only once but twice. Then on the second morning after asking if the laundry washer/dryer were OK proceeded to do laundry to find out they were not properly working and our clothes are sitting in muck. While they trust the Hilton name, I will never be staying at a Spahr again and much of this could've been avoided if it was properly handled by employees. Let your customers know that you are under construction, be attentive to the details and make sure staff are cleaning rooms properly. For now this hotel is on fire. It's not a spark. It's a full-blown inferno.

    The staff are friendly and the place is clean, but the brand Spark doesn't offer the value of…read moreservices for the price. At all. For $196 a night, I really expect something other than microwave pancakes, hard boiled eggs, and danish for breakfast. The shower was lukewarm at best. IHG down the street charges $40/night less. Go there.
