“Distill-Inn presents a refreshingly updated take on Bardstown lodging, its spacious rooms offering a clean and comfortable base for exploring the region's famed distilleries. The well-appointed bar, often made more inviting by an accommodating bartender, and the unexpected indoor pickleball court add distinct layers to the guest experience. It feels like a thoughtful reimagining of what a comfortable, value-conscious stay can be in this spirited locale.”
