Overall Ratings & Reviews The Gin Hotel, Ascend Hotel Collection

Charming 1920's hotel in very small town.

The hotel was nice and the front desk staff was pleasant (although a little jarring in her appearance). I was very disappointed that the new ownership has erased the Robert E. Lee name from the façade. The room was okay but the bed was rather hard, as were the pillows. The noise from the street wasn’t bad after midnight but at 5am the dumpster truck arrived in the alley and the noise from that interrupted my sleep (to be expected, I guess, when you stay in town). The included breakfast was, shall we say, minimal but not bad overall. I guess it was just a subpar experience for the price, but it is centrally located so the good thing is there’s lots else to do within walking distance of the hotel. Don’t miss Stonewall Jackson’s grave a few blocks away, as well as Robert E. Lee’s memorial at Washington & Lee chapel. Lexington is definitely a town suffering from hanging onto its roots.

Nice hotel but the Orbiz photos are wrong. Front of the hotel no longer has the words Robert E Lee painted on the front. The reason it was booked. Without the words it’s a regular old/charming hotel but missing it’s heritage.

Beautiful historic city. Really enjoyed our stay. Great location. Easy walk to every thing downtown with many restaurants nearby. Recommend the carriage rides. Hotel was fabulous.

Great hotel in a historic area.

lovely old building with a nice resturant

Lovely hotel in a wonderful location will lots to do around. Staff was helpful, every thing went smoothly.

Great old , restored building; absolutely stunning! Great restaurant, very comfy bed, & excellent location. 🙂

Lacking a lot of things that would be needed for a good stay. No fridge, microwave, iron or ironing board. The bed was hard and not comfortable. The electrical outlets were loose and wouldn’t hold plugs. There was dust standing on the baseboards. There was no room service even though it was advertised. The one positive was the staff, they were very pleasant. It was way overpriced for the town and in comparison to others in the town.

great stay

Nice room; breakfast was subpar.

Beautiful hotel. The only downsides (if you can even call them that) is a small tv in the room and lacking in the working power outlet department but we loved our stay and would stay again!

What a nice surprise this hotel was! We visited the welcome center in Lexington and the nice gentlemen working the counter recommended The Gin. We’re so glad he did, our room was perfect and the restaurant served delicious food. We liked it so much, we booked another night!

The hotel is quaint The room is clean and has a nice shower The restaurant is excellent. Love sitting outside out looking the cute town

More power outlets would be helpful.

Everything was great but you can’t get an Uber or Lyft anywhere

Our second visit. Dinner on the porch and our room were both excellent.

The bar and restaurant were closed and i selected the property based on that

This is a well maintained old hotel. The staff was great

Hotel stay was comfortable. Staff was pleasant. Breakfast was subpar. There was no coffee left in the container, and no one was available to refill it. There was no fruit left, and no protein.
