My wife and I stayed there over Memorial day weekend. Great outside--golf course, tennis courts, large pool area, beautiful grounds. However, the rooms and particularly bathrooms are tiny. King bed pretty much takes up the room. You have to back into a corner of the bathroom beside the toilet to close or open the bathroom door. I've seen larger bathrooms... More

Although it is beginning to show it's age, I love staying here. Friendly, customer oriented staff. Clean and comfortable. Great bed linens. Bathroom tiny but well appointed. Love the bath products. Quiet during my stay. Beautiful grounds and pool area. Good price from Priceline didn't hurt. A lovely stay. More

Spent two nights here with a family of four recently. The hotel staff is friendly but the decor is very dated. The standard 2 double bedded rooms are quite small and the bathroom is teeny tiny. Free wired LAN in rooms, spotty wireless throughout hotel is free if you are a Gold or higher Rewards member. We had the buffet... More

In town for business. This is obviously an older property. It certainly has that 60's / 70's look to it but it is well maintained. The staff is amazing when it comes to service. As an elite member, I was contacted prior to arrival to ensure everything I requested had been delivered. The room was average sized. Bed linen was... More

Our recent experience at The Marriott Griffin Gate in Lexington, Kentucky was a testimony to the caring professionalism of the staff of this beautiful hotel. We had booked and paid for this venue through an outside agent as part of a trip to The Kentucky Derby. Upon arrival at the hotel we learned that our names were not on the... More

We stay there every spring for a retreat that is held there. The hotel is always very well-maintained & clean. The staff is very courteous & helpful. The king-size beds have the tempur-pedic mattresses=awesome night of sleep! I also appreciate having plenty of pillows & plenty of towels; I hate when hotels don't put enough towels & washcloths in the... More

This is a very nice place to stay with friendly, professional staff and very accommodating amenities. The food and the staff in the restaurant were fantastic (hostess made me feel most welcome and server was very pleasant), and I wish I had stayed long enough to visit the spa. The front desk staff were so kind to look up my... More

My wife and I stayed here while visiting our son at U of K. It was a short 15 minute drive to campus and also easy to access the Interstate. Staff was friendly and accomodating. Room was clean and well maintained. The bathroom is small for a suburban hotel and for a category 5 Marriott. Being a Marriott Gold member,... More

Hotel is in a great location, but the rooms are in depserate need of an upgrade and they are very old and worn. The room service was fast and food was good and the gym had some great modern equipment, but the rooms really lacked and showed their age. More
