「Excellent location in a historical setting.」
+Location is perfect for the Carson Center in Paducah, KY. The center is just across the parking lot from the back door of the 1857 Hotel. In fact, both facilities share the parking lot. The location in "old downtown" gives character to the stay with shops and restaurants literally across the street. The hotel itself is remodeled updated yet, keeping the historical building inside with a clean, industrial motif. Local artists have their works displayed at 2 month intervals following various themes. The art is for sale. The rooms are well appointed with large coffee bar and mini-fridge. The showers and tubs have to be seen! Some rooms have the full shower and tub completely open to the bedroom area. So you might want to consider who you are traveling with to share a room. If modestly doesn't matter...one of you can be taking a large soaking bath while the other dances around under the full rain shower next you. The small "event center" of the 1857 Hotel is indeed a low-key bar with intimate sitting areas for drinks and conversation. There is a stage which could host music or other artist...there it was empty when I was there. I would stay here again.
−If you have mobility issues...navigating this older setting could be challenging. For example, of the 2 King Suites, one was upstairs. Front stairs in the lobby were very narrow and STEEP! I used the back stairs (located in the bar/event center) which had 3 sets of landings as I maneuvered the stairs. Using a cane and pulling my carryon luggage...a patron at the bar approached me and offered to assist, which I accepted. I highly recommend that if you have physical/health issues that make stairs difficult, you make the request for a lower level room and get it confirmed. But even the lower rooms have a step down to access the area but it's much better than attempting all the stairs. I'm not sure if they have rooms that are wheelchair/scooter accessible.

+Great location! Staff was extremely friendly.
−The only negative is the lack of a wall separating the tub & shower from the main room.

「Beautiful room, comfy bed, and fun little area!」
+It was a beautiful room. Bed was super comfy. We loved the brick wall. Nice bedding, nice chairs, etc. The shower/tub area was HUGE (though I would've preferred at least glass doors on the shower-ha!) The area around the hotel was fun--quaint little downtown with restaurants/bars and shops etc.
−Because we were there on a Sunday, the bar in the hotel was closed, and quite a few of the restaurants/shops around were also closed. That was a bummer, but we still found a couple places that were open and had a lovely time.

「Enjoyed our stay. Great location in a quaint town.」
「So glad we found 1857, whole new experience than a chain hotel!!」
+My family of 4 loves staying at this boutique hotel! I have family here so when we visit we stay here for more convenience. We used to stay off the interstate at the chain hotels but it had changed in the last few years. This is such a unique and wonderful hotel and we wish we could find this type of hotel everywhere we travel! Very spacious rooms! Love the shower! We stay in a 2 queen room, noise has never been an issue. Excellent location, walk to the best coffee shop, bakery, restaurants, and farmers market on Saturdays! Very safe, we walk at night. Right on the river in a very well maintained area where you can take walks. So love giving our money to a local company rather than the chain hotels! We give up points and free night stays with the chain for this! Judy at the front desk is always so helpful, friendly, and recommends the best places (last month she recommended an amazing boutique clothing warehouse close by for my daughter and I - our new place to shop when we come there!). This hotel is a gem!!
「Nice Spacious Loft Rooms」
+Very spacious loft style rooms right in the downtown area. The rooms had high ceilings and were very modern with nice seating area and retro fridge. The bathroom had the largest shower we’d ever seen, walk in style that could fit a family of four! Had a nice sized soaker tub and marble flooring! We weee staying in the Annex area across from main hotel and had a parking space in alley right outside the entrance, very convenient! The hotel doors are all electronic code for security and there was a common area in the hall with ice and microwave, etc. The receptionist was very friendly and helpful, walking me over to the room and showing me how to access the doors using codes. Only issue we had was the hot water in the bathroom sink wouid not start flowing until you had to first turn it on in the bathtub….seemed like a weird plumbing issue? Otherwise, this was a very nice hotel with lots of room for our dog too.

「lovely boutique hotel with great access to the best of paducah!」
+Location! updated room decor good parking options friendly staff
−suggestions: the room is dark; needs better lighting options overall- also needs to get a natural light option - you could put blinds that pull up from the bottom so that the top of the window can let light in additional- when i first came in the room there was a strong cleaning product smell ...it took away from the overall ambiance of the otherwise very nice room - the smell did go away eventually
