Welcome to BetterBidding!

Thank you for sharing your winning bid with the board.

This hotel has previously been reported at the Resort class so this indicates a downgrade for this property (and i see that Resort bidding is no longer ofered in this area).

Thanks, enjoy your stay.

FWIW, I know this is a little old but this hotel is much nicer then many of the 3* we have gotten on Priceline..just had a total rehab too which is why I am surprised you say it was downgraded..

I am a Lexingtonian and the place is just beautiful with a full golf course on the grounds and near many of the horse farms. The only thing that I can think of is that it got downgraded because they have been doing renovations like crazy. Last year the Catering/Dining areas were renovated so they were unavailable and now according to the website:

"Renovation of the spa from December 17, 2007 to April 1, 2007. The construction may result in minimal noise from 9am to 5pm. "

So I am guessing the spa is down. It is known to be one of the nicest hotels in lexington. If anyone ever wants my opinion on hotels in Lexington I will try to contribute.
