I had a mixed experience at The Sire. The rooms, although quite small with little room to move around the bed, were especially nice, but they had a slight smell of burnt toast. The service provided by the staff was very friendly and helpful, making our stay enjoyable. The location was perfect for exploring downtown Lexington, offering a quiet and fun neighborhood to explore. The dining experience, while delayed, was good overall, with delicious sandwiches and fresh squeezed orange juice available.

Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience for me. While the king suite I booked was amazing, the room was very dark and needed more lighting, making it a bit challenging to move around the bed. However, the team, from the manager to the front desk staff and restaurant personnel, were all terrific, providing kind, attentive, and professional service. The location was perfect for exploring Lexington with easy access to downtown attractions and a quiet, fun neighborhood to enjoy. The dining experience had some delays, but being complimentary helped ease the inconvenience. Overall, a stay with some highs and lows.
