Relaxing Getaway

We had an very relaxing stay at the Brown Hotel. We enjoyed breakfast as well as dinner and had a Kentucky Hot Brown which was excellent. The Hotel has kept all the charm of an older hotel and updated the most important parts like the bathrooms. We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful, historic hotel.

An offer of soft and firm among the 4 pillows on the bed would be divine. We tried to make dining reservations in advance of arrival. The phone reservation system was not friendly.
