This hotel is a great location and beautiful resort setting but in need of some TLC and updating. In fact, they were working on some of the conference rooms. We had no restaurant option other than Starbucks.

Not as we expected

Our room was much smaller than anticipated. We had a desk with chair, a side chair, a cabinet with drawers holding the TV with the coffee pot inside, and two queen size beds. It was a very tight fit. There was very little space to put our luggage. The bathroom was super tiny. Only one person at a time could go in making it difficult to get ready quickly in the morning.

Griffin Gate Marriott Resort & Spa Review

I have stayed at the Griffin Gate four times in the last 20 years of visiting the Lexington, KY area. This facility has regressed from a true 5 star hotel/restaurant to a three star hotel with average food and three star accommodations. At the age of 72 I would prefer the five star approach to hotel/restaurant amminities and will be looking for a new, more upscale, place to stay when visiting relatives in Kentucky.

A comfortable stay with nice upgrades

I attended a conference here in April and found Griffin Gate to be a great place to stay. The room had a nice 42" LCD TV with easily accessible ports to plug in your camcorder or digital camera. The bathroom was a little smaller than I expected but adequate. The bed was plush and comfortable. The gym was great. All the cardio eequipment had personal TVs. And the grounds were well kept. The only gripe I have is that they charge you $12.95 for a day's worth of Internet. No one does that anymore and yet Marriott sees fit to do this.

Where did the 20 Million $ go ?

We arrived at 3 and check-in was supposed to be at 4. Of our 2 rooms, only one was ready. That was fine, except after 3 assurances later, we were able to access our second room at 6:15 - and the bathroom wasn't clean, nor had the room been vacuumed. This hotel supposedly underwent a 20 million renovation, but we couldn't see it. The bathroom is small and the ceiling is the same height as the door with no ventilation. The furniture did not appear new, and there were no flat screen TV's. The grounds of the hotel are wonderful. Checking out was not great either - the bill was incorrect and it took them quite a while to fix it. This was not our first, but probably our last visit to Griffin Gate.

Great place!

I stayed here with a friend who was on a business trip. The room was large and public places were beautiful. The room lacked a clock, of all things. The staff was great, the room was clean and we had fun. I will recommend this property in the future.
