Amazing experience in a fabulous location!

Fantastic property and incredible breakfast. Scott the innkeeper was informative and friendly. We will definitely make this a regular destination!

Bring your own pillow - only issue we had was that the pillows were small hard foam squares.

Staying at an Old Jail

Staying at the Jailer's Inn was such an awesome and interesting experience! Who would have thought that people will actually be willing to book a stay at an old Jail and enjoy it?! It was a memorable experience with clean amenities and alot of history. The staff were very welcoming and accommodating and we even had a friendly bunny Max on site to help eat some of our blueberries from breakfast! Paul the Jailer was a hoot! Will definitely want to stay again.

Quirky and wont be for everyone, but will clearly delight others.

The location was very good, in downtown Bardstown.

This is a quirky property and more museum like than a bed and breakfast. Room was large but gloomy and dusty. Fixtures and fittings are old and property just feels a bit rundown. Appreciate the wish to preserve the history but there is a way to balance fresh/well kept with old and original. Breakfast was outside and the garden is not well maintained. Breakfast itself was ok.

We had a wonderful stay for our anniversary!

The beds were comfortable, location was great, staff were very friendly, and the breakfast was delicious.

It could maybe use some updates in the bathroom.

Unique, fun with a touch of luxury.

This was a very different experience. The ambience blended with the history was very unique. Breakfast was exceptional. “The Jailer” was informative and very entertaining. We’ll worth the visit while in Bourbon Country.

Everything was great. No real criticism.

Enjoyed our stay and would stay here again when visiting Bardstown

Great location in the heart of Bardstown. Unique hotel that takes you back in time. The morning breakfast in the courtyard was delicious and the staff went out of their way to give you the history and tour of the jail.

A larger bathroom would have been nice but understand when converting a jail to a living space you only have so much room. Our room had no windows so it was hard to tell when the sun came up.

Unexpected and delightful!

Breakfast was really lovely. Very hospitable staff. Pretty setting! The tour of the jail was great!

While the room was cozy and comfortable, it needs a little freshening up. Remove fake flower arrangements ( maybe a bud vase with something like a cut fern or flower in it... not expensive to do in the spring/summer. In the fall something dried and winter, a sprig of evergreen.) Also not a fan of creepy framed photo and angel figurines. Maybe a slight upgrade with candy...like a couple of bourbon balls or something regional for a treat in the candy dish. Rethink some of these inexpensive ideas to freshen things up a bit! A monogrammed notepad ( stationary) and local interest pamphlet would be nice in the room,too. Just sayin'...
