The staff was very welcoming and go out of their way to make sure your stay is pleasant. My kids and I went fishing in their lakes and they had a blast. It was their first time fishing and they were hooked (pun intended). They have plenty of things to do with the family on site and a little train for the kids to ride. Overall great place to visit and get some quality family time. We also recommend feeding the white catfish. It was a big hit with the kids.

West Baden has now become a regular family destination. My family -- plus my mom, stepdad, siblings…read moreand their families -- just finished our second trip here. And it's safe to say that West Baden is now a family tradition. My parents spent a few days there to celebrate their anniversary, and then the kids all came to stay the last night, during Easter weekend. And we made the most of it. We started with bowling and pizza at the new Ballard's at the Atrium (see my review on that). My older niece then watched all the kids in one of the hotel rooms, while the adults got a drink in the expansive atrium and enjoyed looking up at the picturesque dome ceiling. The next morning, which was Easter, we found a quiet sitting area on our floor to have an Easter egg hunt with all the kids. These are memories we will cherish. We popped over to French Lick for brunch, though the Easter brunch set up in the atrium definitely looked delicious too. The staff is always excellent. We were able to call and get all of our rooms next to each other, which helped. Thanks for another fabulous mini-vacation, West Baden!

Just wish the services for caring for kids started at younger ages (maybe potty trained and older?) It will be years before my husband and I can stay at this hotel and have a true 'date day or night' and our kids are five and three. Honestly they'd get more money out of us if they offered babysitting for younger kiddos!! Food here is very standard and nothing to write home about. That applies to every restaurant off property we tried in the area. Activities we tried and enjoyed 1. Kids pony ride 2. Carriage ride. 3. Mommy and kiddo pedicure (expensive for what you get but also standard pricing for hotels). 4. The free!! Trolley train ride to the sister property. Activities are easy to book over the phone ahead of the stay and easy to do at the front desk or calling from your room. Very excited about the new bowling alley building they are almost finished with next to the hotel. The stables area is very picturesque with a large covered 'patio'. Patio seems too small a word. More like covered event space. Wedding perfect. Room was clean. Beds are not very comfortable. Killed my back and my husband's. We had a two bedroom suite which was the perfect size for the four of us. It had two balconies overlooking the atrium which I will never, ever book again. Too loud! All night long too loud! Even from the sixth floor, even with earplugs. Only exterior view next time for a stay. I would return next year for all of the holiday events. My kids loved this trip because of all the new experiences they had. Lots of things to do in the area that get you outdoors. Lovely part of Indiana in the Autumn (when we visited).

They have breakfast from 6 to 9 in the mornings with hot choices as well as cereals and breads. They had popcorn when we arrived in the lobby, and the people behind the desk were very friendly helped us get through probably quicker than I can never remember getting through a hotel desk. The rooms are spacious and clean price was very reasonable, but in this location, I would expect that. I would imagine since it's only a few miles away from Holiday world that during the summer months, the price of hotels are probably higher here, there's a number of restaurants around Wendy's McDonald's Subway and CVS up on the corner. Very comfortable nice large TV refrigerator and microwave in the rooms as well.

They are going through an ownership change, but the change came with a ton of drama for groups with…read moreblocks previously booked. After calling and booking a block for our group a month in advance we were left with minimal communication and several different answers when calling to book/confirm rooms. Nobody had a real answer for us. One employee said we had 11 rooms blocked, another said we had 16 blocked but when calling to book/confirm we were told the hotel was sold out. Only 8 of us were able to book through the block, leaving others to be charged higher rates. They blamed the issues on the manager walking out/quitting but ultimately it was an issue that the new owner should never have let happen in the first place. Their refusal to work with our contract was a slap in the face. One if guests were only able to book for 2 nights and had to bunk with another family, claiming they were full for the night, meanwhile TWO rooms were ajar all night directly across from my room. The breakfast was put up early most days, the pool went from a beautiful blue to swamp green overnight. Overall it was clean (minus the ants thay were all iver our table), the staff was nice and it would probably be fine if you were just staying as an individual rather than a group. If you are lodging as a group I would definitely take my business elsewhere. Forgot to add they charged the wrong card, I booked with one card asking them to charge another card upon arrival. They agreed to but still charged my card I asked them to change. I have been waiting for management to call me back since Monday. Its now the following Sunday and still nothing.

I made my last reservation in the app, as I have done for years. I selected my dates and type of room. It comes up with a rate that says taxes & fees included. I booked my reservation with my credit card. After my stay, I was charged extra for taxes and fees. The local office nor corporate would honor my rate. They denied being able to see my rate and left the burden on me to prove the unprovable. It was simple to see looking at future dates I could book the same rate with all taxes & fees included. I walked the hotel manager through the app site and she reluctantly saw what I was saying, but still blamed me for not looking at an email they sent me which changed what I had agreed to on line. It was the classic bait & switch and no one cared. Note that I had recommended that 9 other people attending the same event stay there and most paid about $150.-200. Less. Most were not Bonvoy members. It's interesting to see the trend of customer service. My last two trips I had ants in my room very late when I returned. Another time I had a door that would not close when I left unless I held the bolt in from the inside. The next time I asked for room cleaning only once over 4 nights and it was not cleaned. I always mentioned it but I never demanded a new room or anything. The last problem is they overcharged the holding fee. The last day, there were few cars in the lot. I asked if I could check out 30 minutes late due to a meeting and they refused, saying my membership level did not qualify for a late check out. I'm guessing this is poorly managed as a franchise, but I honestly will take my friends and try to stay elsewhere.

It was great they had this option because when I arrived, I did not want to go out anywhere in downtown Owensboro, driving on the one way streets. The spinach wrap did the trick. The breakfast in the morning was a bit limited in terms of other Hampton Inns I have been to. They did not have breakfast potato wedges, but who needs the extra carbs right? Still, I had two sausage patties and a Yoplait yoghurt. Man, it was probably the first time I have had one since my childhood. They also have Dannon, which is another great brand. It is kind of a bummer that I was on business or else, I would have spent more time at night and during the day, walking the waterfront. I have seen the Ohio River from Louisville, KY; Prospect, KY and now Owensboro, KY.

The caretakers Norma and John were great hosts and went out of their way to make sure we were taken care of. This is a cool looking turn of the 20th century midwestern Greek Revival(? I'm not hip to too many styles) house with lots of Corinthian columns and a wrap around porch with many rockers to sit at and look at the Patoka River and Jasper City Mill. Great looking woodwork inside and nice little decorative features in the molding and wood abound. The rooms are spacious enough as are the beds and each room has it's own a/c controls to make it comfortable to your tastes. Norma and John really stepped out of their way and were happy to let us hang out hours after check out while we waited for a bad storm to bypass us on our way home. She kept wanting to send us away with food just like your grandma wants to! I highly recommend this to anyone looking for something more interesting than the usual hotel/motel/Holiday Inn!

Hampton Inn in Jasper is a nice hotel and an excellent choice, but a little bit less comfortable…read morethan the similarly priced Fairfield competing against it in Jasper. The rooms are the best maintained I've in town across several work trips, the front desk, attendees are polite, helpful, and courteous, and it's located right in the middle of everything. It offers a large waiting pool, hot breakfast, and clean eggs, biscuits, sausage, waffles, and all the rest, and fresh, hot coffee, and cookies at the front are a nice touch. The downsides of noticed are that the sheets and beds, well comfortable pillow tops, seem to likely be synthetic and have me feeling confusingly, sweaty even with the air conditioner turned on, and the fitness room is long overdue for some very basic maintenance: the cable machine only has one side that works because the adjustment is broken on the other, and the weight bench adjustment knob has fallen off, keeping it flat and making a lot of exercise exercises not possible. Nonetheless, the pool is quite nice and large, and two treadmills, and elliptical, and a peloton spin bike are available.

Hotel The Hampton…read moreInn in Jasper has been around for a long time. It is a solid 3-star hotel within the Hilton family of hotels. The folks working here are exceptionally nice and helpful. The hotel overall is somewhat dated and is in need of a facelift. The room was the standard Hampton Inn room: bed / bath, TV and a refrigerator and a desk area to work at, if needed. Room was in good shape. Bed was comfy enough and the heat worked. Hot water took a little bit of time to get going and on the last day, the water suddenly lost pressure and dribbled out of the shower - thankfully I was just finished or I would have not been a happy camper. Bath sink was draining extremely slow so I mentioned it to the front desk and by the time I returned to the room that afternoon the problem was completely solved. Very good response on that. They have a free breakfast bar in the mornings and although it is nothing gourmet, it will get you up and going without adding to the cost of your trip. The front desk also have Grab-n-go breakfast bags in the event you are in a hurry to get to where you are going Overall a solid place to stay if in the area. Plenty of parking available.
