The world’s first “bourbon-infused luxury hotel” just opened in Kentucky
Bourbon drinkers looking for a place to lay their head after a day spent visiting the iconic distilleries of the Kentucky Bourbon Trail have a new destination to visit. That’s because the recently opened Trail Hotel is touted as the world’s first “bourbon-infused luxury hotel.”
Located in Bardstown, in the heart of Kentucky’s Bourbon Trail and close to some of the most well-respected distilleries in the country, The Trail Hotel is a 95-room hotel located in a historic property and chocked full of “southern hospitality” and interactive bourbon experiences. In addition to the nearly 100 rooms, the space boasts eight signature suites, a four-star restaurant, and five distinct bars.
Not only that but with the opening of this new hotel comes a signature, private-label bourbon, and rye whiskey made in partnership with a well-known nearby distillery. Both are available for purchase by hotel guests.
“We set out to create a place where the essence of Kentucky bourbon is not just tasted, but lived,” Dan Sirrine, General Manager, said.
