The Campbell House Lexington Curio Collection by Hilton

Southern Charm Meets Concert Convenience

Located just a short ride from downtown Lexington, The Campbell House Lexington Curio Collection by Hilton blends classic Southern elegance with modern comfort. Housed in a beautifully restored horse farm manor, this hotel is less than a mile from the University of Kentucky and just minutes from the Lexington Opera House and Convention Center. With tasteful decor, plush bedding, and free in-room WiFi, it’s a relaxing base for concert nights and city adventures.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel’s close proximity to downtown venues like the Lexington Opera House makes it a smart choice for music fans. You'll be just a short drive or ride-share away from your show, and the quiet surroundings make it easy to unwind afterward. Concert nights can run late, so the flexible 4:00 PM check-in and convenient access to late-night dining help you roll with your own schedule. Plus, free WiFi and comfy rooms mean you can stream the setlist all night if you want.

Food and Drink Options

The hotel’s on-site restaurant, The Rackhouse Tavern, offers Southern-inspired dishes and is perfect for a pre-show dinner or a post-show bite. While there's no 24/7 room service, the bar stays open late and there are plenty of walkable dining options just a short Uber away. If you sleep in after a late night, no worries—breakfast is available to help you start the day right.

Nightlife Options

While The Campbell House doesn’t host its own live music, its stylish bar is a great place to enjoy a craft cocktail before heading out. You're also close to Lexington's growing nightlife scene, with plenty of bars and lounges nearby for a nightcap or an encore.

What People Say

Guests love the hotel’s historic charm and say it “feels like a boutique escape with modern perks.” Many reviewers mention the friendly staff, beautiful lobby, and convenient location near both the university and downtown venues. The beds get high marks for comfort—great news for tired feet after dancing all night.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests have noted that certain rooms could use minor updates, especially in the bathrooms. While the hotel's aesthetic is charmingly vintage, those expecting ultra-modern finishes might find it a bit dated in spots. Also, because it's not in the heart of the nightlife district, you may need a car or rideshare to reach some late-night spots.

The Bottom Line

With its stylish Southern vibe and ideal location close to Lexington’s concert venues, The Campbell House is a cozy, convenient home base for music lovers looking to enjoy the show and relax in comfort.
