"Large room for our toddler to run around but sadly the carpet turned her feet/socks black. The shower head was also nearly impossible to fully turn off which explains the rust on the drain."

"Wonderful place to stay! Extremely helpful staff. Quiet...there was a volleyball tournament that weekend where the hotel was FULL! And It was still quite. It is very clean. The bed was super comfortable. We didn't get the breakfast for a fee. Overall, great place to stay and we will make this our hotel of choice when in Lexington."

Embassy Suites by Hilton Lexington Green

Embassy Suites by Hilton Lexington Green

10/10 Excellent

"We love so many things about Embassy Suites at Lexington Green: friendly staff, clean and comfortable rooms, evening reception offering food and drink, wonderful hot breakfast with made to order omelets and pancakes, the location and proximity to so many shopping and dining establishments as well as Rupp Arena and Keeneland! The outdoor pool and large lake with swans and ducks and large patio with tables, chairs, and fire pits behind the hotel is like a mini boardwalk and being right next door to Joseph-Beth Bookstore, The Cafe, and Palmer’s Fresh Grill made it so much of a resort stay! It’s our favorite place to stay in Lexington, Ky! We will definitely be back! 🌺"
