Hotels in Maysville KY: What You Can Book Now

Where to Stay in Maysville: Downtown and Riverfront

Downtown Maysville sits on the Ohio River. Stay here if you want to walk to museums, the theatre and the waterfront.

French Quarter Inn

The French Quarter Inn stands at 25 East McDonald Parkway, Maysville, KY 41056. Two listings place the hotel in the middle of town, a short walk from the river. One listing counts 61 rooms. Check-in starts at 3:00 PM and check-out ends at 11:00 AM.

Both listings name a free continental breakfast served from 6:00 AM to 9:00 AM, free Wi-Fi, free parking, a seasonal outdoor pool and a fitness center. One listing shows river view balconies in select rooms and an on-site restaurant and bar. The other does not mention them, so ask when you book.

The two listings disagree on pets and on front desk hours. One says pets are welcome and the other says only service animals may stay. One says the front desk keeps limited hours and the other says the desk runs all day. Call the hotel to settle both points before you travel.

One listing also posts a renovation notice for the front desk, lobby, hallways and select rooms. The notice runs from 21 September 2026 to 31 January 2027, with work during business hours. We found this in a single source. Ask about noise and room choice when you book.

The listing places Limestone Landing Park about 100 meters away, the Russell Theatre about 180 meters away and the Kentucky Gateway Museum Center about 350 meters away. Pick this hotel if you want a downtown base and can live with a property some guests call dated.

Moon River Bed and Breakfast

Moon River Bed and Breakfast stands at 320 Market Street, Maysville, KY 41056. A booking listing counts 10 rooms, from single queen rooms to two bedroom suites. Rooms have private bathrooms and sitting areas.

The listing names a free breakfast served from 8:30 AM to 10:00 AM, free Wi-Fi, free parking and a garden. Dogs and cats stay free according to the same listing. The listing places the property one minute on foot from the National Underground Railroad Museum and five minutes from the Kentucky Gateway Museum Center.

We found these details on one booking page and a name match on a second. We could not reach the owner. Call to confirm the room types, the pet rules and the breakfast hours. Choose this property if you want a small house and a walkable address.

Lee House Inn

The Lee House Inn stands at 100 West Front Street, Maysville, KY 41056. The inn website says guests can book now. Call 606-777-5177 or write to info@leehouseinn.com.

The website says Dr. William Murtagh built the house around 1798 and names early travelers such as Henry Clay, Governor John Chambers and Andrew Jackson. Restoration began in 2004. The inn lists suites with kitchenettes, microwaves, coffee makers, free Wi-Fi and free parking.

This is a single source property, so treat the details as unconfirmed. The website does not post check-in times. Ask for check-in and check-out times, the suite you will get and the cancellation terms. Pick the Lee House Inn if you want a historic building with a kitchenette.

Maysville Hotels and Motels Near US 68

Hampton Inn Maysville

The Hampton Inn stands at 503 Market Place Drive, Maysville, KY 41056. Call 606-759-0600. Two listings agree on check-in at 3:00 PM and check-out at noon. Both count 93 rooms on three floors.

Our earlier version of this guide named a free hot breakfast. The listings we checked do not confirm one, so ask what breakfast the hotel serves now. One listing puts the Washington Visitors Center about three minutes away by car and the National Underground Railroad Museum about four minutes away. Pick the Hampton Inn if you want a pool and a larger room count.

The listing says the building opened in 1994 and had a renovation in 2021. A second listing also names an indoor pool, so the pool looks solid. Confirm breakfast and pet rules by phone.

Pet friendly rooms cost extra. The Wyndham page says the outdoor pool is closed for renovations, so do not book for a swim without a call. The page does not list check-in times. Our earlier version of this guide named an on-site bar. We could not confirm one, so we dropped the claim.

Choose the Days Inn if you want a breakfast and a room with a microwave for a short stay.

Brown’s Motel Sits Across the River in Ohio

Our earlier version listed Brown’s Motel as a Maysville option. Expedia lists Brown’s Motel under Aberdeen, Ohio, across the Ohio River, and not in Maysville. We removed the motel from the Maysville list. Two bridges link the towns, the Simon Kenton Memorial Bridge and the William H. Harsha Bridge, according to Wikipedia.

If you want a budget room in Aberdeen, search Aberdeen and confirm the motel is open. We did not verify the motel itself.

What to Do Near Your Maysville Hotel

The National Underground Railroad Museum draws many visitors to Maysville. Wikipedia calls the city an important stop on the Underground Railroad because of its position across the river from Ohio. Check the museum site for hours and ticket rules before you go.

The Kentucky Gateway Museum Center sits downtown. The Russell Theatre hosted the world premiere of the first film made by Rosemary Clooney in 1953, according to Wikipedia. Ten murals decorate the downtown floodwall.

Old Pogue Distillery stands at 716 West 2nd Street and sits on the northern Kentucky Craft Tour. The Lee House Inn describes the distillery as the oldest in Kentucky. The inn lists tastings for guests aged 21 and older, so confirm current tasting rules on the distillery website.

History runs deep here. Simon Kenton founded the first settlement in 1775 and Daniel Boone later opened a trading post, according to Wikipedia. By the 1830s Maysville was the second most important commercial city in Kentucky after Louisville.

Getting to Maysville and Where Else to Stay

Maysville lies about 66 miles northeast of Lexington and about 62 miles from Cincinnati, according to Wikipedia. US 68, US 62 and Kentucky Routes 8 through 11 serve the city. Amtrak runs the Cardinal train to Maysville, so check the schedule if you plan to arrive by rail.

Booking listings place Cincinnati Northern Kentucky International Airport about 77 minutes away by car and Blue Grass Airport near Lexington about 94 minutes away. Treat both numbers as estimates and check a map for current road conditions.

If every Maysville room is full, look at Aberdeen, Ohio, across the river. Expedia lists the Beverly Hills Inn and Brown’s Motel there. We did not verify either property.

How to Choose a Maysville Hotel

Families do well at the Hampton Inn or the Quality Inn. Both name an indoor pool and free parking.

Couples and history fans should look at the French Quarter Inn, Moon River Bed and Breakfast or the Lee House Inn. All three sit near the river and the museums.

Pet owners should call first. Listings disagree on pet rules at the French Quarter Inn and on fees at the Hampton Inn. Moon River lists free pets on one page, and the Super 8 lists a per pet fee.

Budget travelers should compare the Super 8 and the Days Inn by phone. Both list breakfast. We do not quote rates, so ask for the total with taxes and fees.

Before you pay, confirm the property name, the cancellation policy, breakfast hours, pool status and late arrival rules. Compare the total on two booking sites and by phone. Small towns have few rooms, so book early for a busy weekend.

What We Checked and What We Could Not

We checked every hotel against at least two listings except the Lee House Inn, where we relied on the inn website. We took city facts from Wikipedia and Expedia, and we took bourbon trail details from the Lee House Inn website.

We could not confirm current rates, breakfast at the Hampton Inn, the bar at the Days Inn, pet rules at several hotels or the pool at the Super 8. We could not open the official pages for the French Quarter Inn or the Super 8. Phone numbers and policies change. Confirm each detail with the property before you travel.
