Could not be happier with our stay. Ginger at the front desk managed to get us our extra day we needed for our trip. She made sure all our needs were handled including our conference room. She is the kindest, sweetest hotel staff member I have ever met. Rooms were very clean!

Hotel's Favorite
Traveling south from Frederick,Maryland, I decided I was getting a bit tired despite the late start and pulled off the road to get a decent meal and some rest. On a whim I decided to get a room at the Hampton Inn adjacent to Lexington's historic district so I could stretch my legs with a nice walk to an array of restaurants. I was quite pleased with what I saw driving in despite the detour caused by road work. The lobby and dining room are housed in an Antebellum Period mansion. It appears the grounds and room annexes were built in the 1960s due to their scale and layout; possibly a privately owned "mom and pop" establishment early on. The property has been upgraded with brick veneers and new interiors. The quality of the rooms are top notch despite the old-school exterior access. The grounds are well maintained and feel very safe. There is a small pool (no diving), with an adjacent kiddy pool which is another tell-tale sign of the "motel's" early beginning. When do you ever see a shallow kiddy pool anymore? The walk to the restaurant took a mere 9 minutes through a safe and well maintained area adjacent to the college's fraternity row. See the write up of my dining experience in another post. The bed was comfortable and the room quiet. I had a great night's sleep. The next morning I made it to breakfast around 7:30. Despite the variety of offerings, I went with the scrambled eggs and hickory smoked sausage with the biscuts and sawmill gravy on the side. The coffee was great...but you have to search for it (hint: exit the dining room into the lobby area). The attendant was really nice and very helpful, which got her a $5 tip. The only hangup was the cost of the room....$218. Online I was seeing rates at $108. I inquired about this at the desk upon arrival and was told by the attendant that Travelocity and Hotels.com were posting misinformation and that online reservations were typically canceled. This shocked me a bit and I would have debated heavily but I was tired and really needed to go to the bathroom...so I dropped it and conceded. I do think the attendant was new and did not realize she was blatantly ripping me off. On my way back through Lexington I will attempt a third-party reservation and see what happens. All in all, my experience was fine and I would be willing to make this hotel a regular stop when in town.…

Last minute weekend getaway to Lexington and booked our stay at this Hampton after great Tripadvisor reviews. Easy check in, very clean facilities, nice large room with comfortable bed, free WiFi, clean updated bathroom and nice smart television. Easy access from interstate and just a few blocks from main street shopping/restaurants/universities.

This Hampton Inn is unique. It's build around an 1827 plantation mansion! Gorgeous, and only a short walk or drive to Main St. in Lexington. Breakfast is standard motel fare but is served in an antebellum dining room.

Ginger at the front desk was informative and helpful and the space was exquisite! Our room had a fireplace and we loved the way the old details of the building had been preserved. Combine that with the warm fireplace, beautiful Christmas tree, and all the amenities of the modern wing, like central air and a fitness center.

Dad and I were passing through to Alabama and this was a good stopping point at about 4 hours driving after a long day at work. The place is beautiful and situated on a historic site which adds to the Hampton Inn experience. The staff was tremendously hospitable with any needs. The room was well temped and beds were comfortable. The breakfast spread provided a great variety of options including two pancake flavor options. It was just what dad and I needed before resuming our trip south. I can’t wait to do a girls trip in the future with friends and explore Lexington.

This is the fourth time I've stayed at this Hampton Inn for 1 night on my way from NC to WV. Room was very clean and bed comfortable. Young lady at check in was friendly and check in was quick. Breakfast was typical Hampton Inn fare, but enough to satisfy me.

Two night stay midweek was perfect. We had a double Queen room with the extra elbow room in the new wing. Overlooked the drive and garden at the historic wing. Special thanks to Megan and the housekeeping team for finding my travel robe and returning it to me by mail. Awesome service!!
