Nicest hotel room i have ever been in. Hotel and dining is fantastic. The Equestrian World Center is something to be seen to be believed. Will come back again.

Me and my husband went for a weekend getaway to see the winter WEC competition. We had such an amazing time! The property is beautiful! We dined at the yellow pony our first night. Our second night we went downtown and dined at a French restaurant. And our last night we dined at the hotel restaurant called Stirrups. The service was amazing. From housekeeping to the restaurant staff. We were VERY late (1 hour!) for our reservations at the Stirrup restaurant because we were watching the Grand Prix competition and the hostess was fabulous. She still was able to seat us and we were able to have a lovely dinner. Our server at stirrups (Gaby) was phenomenal. She was very professional and so nice. We’re definitely coming back here again!

We love this hotel, especially at the holidays. They do a wonderful job at holiday decorations and it’s so beautiful. Staff is great. The Pub is always lively and food and service is awesome. The rooms are large and lovely. Comfy beds , marble bathrooms. mini bar options and in room coffee could use an upgrade but the french bakery on property is the best within 100 miles!!! They have a fabulous toy store too. Not many like this left anymore.

One of my favorite places to stay. Beautiful facility, epically clean and wonderful service. The food and other amenities for purchase are wildly (almost silly) overpriced (room service hamburger is $35 before fees) but the rooms are beautiful and the entire WEC is great.

I have stayed here since the property’s opening and boy has it changed. The staff—especially the front desk—is rude and unaccommodating. The restaurants are too crowded and parking is a disaster. This hotel has changed so much fromt he quaint southern warm getaway it was when it opened. We will be renting in the area from now on.

Everything a the hotel was amazing. Staff was friendly, courteous and grounds are well maintained. I will recommend staying here to everyone. Britany personally helped us with getting dining reservations and was very helpful explaining details of the hotel, the events that were ongoing and the decor.

We thoroughly enjoyed everything about our stay. The entire hotel was amazing and all the staff throughout were exceptional. Food was wonderful at multiple options we visited. The arenas and barns were so clean. Bathrooms were everywhere and always spotless! Just an exceptional place to get to enjoy. Especially appreciated the olive tree crosses available for the taking. Also loved the beautiful leather bible in our room.
