The Jailer’s Inn is a beautiful, historic bed and breakfast in the heart of historic Bardstown!! The hospitality is bar none, the food was excellent and the bed was like sleeping on a cloud! A tour of the old jail was included in the stay and was such an interesting part of history. Highly recommend!!!

The owner was wonderful and lots of stories and funny anecdotes to share. The room decorations and furnishings attempt to capture the history of the jailer, but are a little dated. Breakfast was marvelous, the outdoor pavilion beautiful. There are several restaurants and the shopping district within easy walking distance. I would definitely recommend the Jailers Inn.

Great place Great experience!

We stayed in the jail cell for the experience! I would have to say the bunk bed was rather uncomfortable for an old broad like myself! But we were in jail!!! The breakfast was so fantastic i forgot about my aches and pains!

Fun unique visit.

This was a great trip to a great city. The service and food were very good. The rooms very comfortable and unique. The staff made every effort to make us comfortable and meet our needs. Breakfast was served alfresco with other guests. Breakfast was not just typical hotel fare. It was very delicious and a fun experience.

careful where you step

Breakfast was in the back yard; the yard had several rabbits running loose, to get to the pavilion where breakfast was served you had to cross the lawn where the rabbits freely, the lawn and surrounding aeras of the yard was littered with rabbit droppings a unsanitary condition let alone an unappetizing place to be served breakfast The entire place could use a great deal of professional maintenance and general upkeep along with clean-up of the rabbit pellets

Good experience at the Jailer's Inn

We had a fun stay at the Jailer's Inn! Location is excellent, breakfast was delicious both days we were there, SUPER comfy bed, and great tour of the jail included in stay! It was very cool - hard to believe the jail was operating til 1987, I think, not so long ago! The room we stayed in was nice, but a little musty. But overall, had everything we needed, was a good experience, would stay here again.

The property is beautifully maintained, the historical tales are wonderfully manifested by Paul (the proprietor), and the immersive tour was incredibly well done. You can truly feel the presence of the past in the rooms and grounds and it's obvious that this treasure is in the right hands to ensure it remains a part of legend and history.
