The Paris, Kentucky, motto is "Horses, History, Hospitality!"
Paris, Kentucky, located just 15 miles outside of Lexington, though modestly sized at just under 10,000 residents, is still a tourist destination because of its historical significance. Several buildings date back to the 18th century and the Revolutionary War, and like much of Kentucky, the town caters to horse lovers. There are several hotel options within the city limits.
Best Western Paris Inn
There are hundreds of Best Westerns sprinkled across the United States, and the location in Paris is typical of most. Each room contains a private bathroom, cable television with HBO and free high-speed Internet. Included in the price of the accommodations is a continental breakfast, including Belgian waffles. There are also several commercial dining options within walking distance of the hotel. The Paris Best Western has an outdoor pool, accessible during the summer months and located a mile down the road from the town's public golf course.

The Treehouse
As its name would suggest, the Treehouse on Stoner Creek was designed essentially as an elevated log cabin. The boutique lodging combines a rustic forest feel with modern conveniences. Each room is equipped with wall-mounted cable television and has soothing music piped in through the walls. The complimentary breakfast, which can be eaten indoors in the dining room or outside on the patio/deck, consists of omelets, Belgian waffles and bacon with an assortment of local jams. Popular activities for guests at the Treehouse include kayaking and day trips aboard a pontoon boat, which the hotel rents out for a small fee.

Country Charm Bed and Breakfast
Although established in 2003, the Country Charm Bed and Breakfast has taken advantage of the local historical architecture by setting up business in a Paris farmhouse that dates back to the 1860s. Only a handful of rooms, along with an outdoor cottage, are available at any given time, but each is equipped with queen- or king-sized beds, satellite televisions, Wi-Fi and large private baths. The two-acre yard surrounding the building includes a basketball court, barbecue patio, parking lot and outdoor hot tub with a sunning area. Homemade country breakfasts are provided each morning for guests in the farmhouse dining hall.
