Room 1 is huge with a king-sized bed, two sitting areas and a separate small room with a fridge and ample space for luggage. The large bathroom has an awkward layout, but the jacuzzi tub is a lovely bonus on a cold night. The home-cooked breakfasts were delicious and satisfying, and the host was extremely friendly and helpful. A couple small suggestions would be to add a full length mirror and provide body lotion along with the other toiletries. The location is great for walking, and the parking and ease of entry were very good.

The only recommendation I could make is that during big events like that, the convention center staff could stay on top of keeping the women's bathrooms stocked on toilet paper and paper towels.

I got a deal by paying a month in advance. I passed on the breakfast buffet deal. ( a little extra per day) I've seen it. It's good. But I'm here in Paducah for meat and potatoes in the evening. Saving appetite. Rooms cleaned every day. Good waterfront view. Not enough parking Internet drops off occasionally. I love it here.

Staff was all pleasant and constantly checking in on me to see what I needed if anything. The hotel is newer and still presents as such. The room I was upgraded to had a balcony with view of river. It was nice to have this for relaxing early in the morning and doing yoga. The bathroom could use more bars to hang towels and clothing as there are only 2 hangers on the bathroom door and that's all. Breakfast is not included unless you specifically book with it. It may be better to just pay for it outright depending on the number of guests in your party. There is plenty of parking around the hotel and you can enter thru side doors with room key. I loved the cleanliness of the hotel facilities, my room, and the ice machine area. All of this matters to me when I'm staying somewhere. Amethyst was so sweet when we checked in and cheerful. I love joyed the Christmas decorations throughout the hotel and felt very comfortable during my stay. I did not try out the bar or the burger spot downstairs.

I was absolutely mesmerized by all the beautiful quilts. There were a few featured artists and their work was absolutely amazing. They have everythng displayed so beautifully and because it was not too busy, there is a certain comfort level here. I saw incredible patterns, colors, stitching and in some cases, mixed media. I have never really paid much attention to this art form and found out just what I was missing. I have some pictures of the overall quilt then close up where you can see the incredible stitch-work. When you come, make sure you visit view the "wood quilt." I could not believe what I was looking at and they have a small sample that you can actually pick up and view. They explained that during their annual show / convention they have upwards of 30,000 people visiting this museum. Quite the feat in a town that has a population of 26,700+. Their gift shop / supply store also seemed pretty robust and I'm sure that many people get their hard-to-find supplies from here. I could not recommend this museum enough for a visit. I am confident that you too will walk out in awe of the amazing work here. KUDOs to the amazing team who curate, represent and volunteer their time at the The National Quilt Museum.

Wow!! This work here is breathtaking. I was amazed. They also have an outstanding gift shop.read more
