Overview

French Lick Springs Hotel is a classic hotel originally built in 1845. The historic resort is named after a nearby salt lick along southern Indiana’s Buffalo Trace. The establishment has retained its original charm while renovating for the modern era. Designed with every type of traveler in mind, the hotel offers golfing, swimming, biking, and a spa, among other activities for guests to enjoy.

Part of the large French Lick Resort Casino complex, French Lick Springs Hotel was originally known for its health spa, which is fed from the nearby mineral springs. Today, guests still flock to the hotel’s award-winning spa. They also enjoy the championship golf course, more than 30 miles of hiking trails, a six-lane bowling alley, horseback riding, indoor and outdoor pools, and many other features that the resort has to offer.

The guestrooms combine the hotel’s ornate, historic charm with modern amenities like high-speed WiFi, luxurious bedding, and flat-screen TVs. Rooms and suites are available, as well as specialty suites, which include the pool suite, the FDR Suite, and the Governor’s Suite. The entire Pete Dye Mansion on the golf course can also be rented out for larger groups and special events.

Seven dining outlets are available at French Lick Springs Hotel, with more scattered throughout the larger resort complex. Guests can experience a romantic meal at fine-dining establishments like 1875: The Steakhouse, which overlooks the hotel’s gardens. Casual poolside fare can be found at Spring No. 8 Deli, while pizza is served in the alley under the spa.

Ideally located about an hour and a half northwest of Louisville, Kentucky, and about two and a half hours south of Indianapolis, French Lick Springs Hotel is easily accessible from most Midwestern cities. Airport transportation is available to and from local airports as well as major airports in Indianapolis, Louisville, and Evansville.

Love the grounds and the offerings of things to do. Small inconveniences occurred—TV didn’t work consistently, bowling alley kept shutting down, bikes were in need of repair. However it is a very cold historic place.

Pros (+) How was beautiful and had a lot of history. Rooms were very clean.
Cons (-) Overall, there wasn't much to do on a blustery Fall afternoon except go to the casino and breathe second hand smoke. Almost everything was overpriced.
