Hot tub wasn’t hot. Rooms are drafty, but we were there on a very cold weekend. Hotel is beautiful, well maintained. Bar is fantastic!

Friendly staff, nice decor, and good location. They do charge extra to use all of the amenities the hotel offers which is annoying.

Amenities were overstated. Their bar was closed most evenings and the advertised “speakeasy” wasn’t open the entire stay. Disappointing.

The Trail Hotel was a gem, newly remodeled with all the amenities. The staff was hospitable, just sad I didn't bring my suit to sit in the hot tub! We plan to stay again when we revisit The Bourbon Trail.

This place is nice! When you drive up it might look like an 80s Holiday Inn but the remodeling was done with beautiful detail.
