    Great overnight stay at the Iron Horse Hotel! We loved the vibe and atmosphere. The outside dining and entertainment space was excellent! Food was delicious. The rooms were very clean and we enjoyed the industrial touches to the decor. The gym area could use some additional machines. Check in and out was a little confusing and the valet didn’t include the proper charges, so now we need to follow up with the hotel. Kind of annoying. Otherwise, we’re definitely coming back!

    We loved the Iron Horse Hotel! It was very clean, beautiful and perfect in every way. We liked that we could walk to the HD museum and that we could park our motorcycles for free. We loved the restaurant.

    Great room, great location. Very walkable to all the fun stuff in Walkers Point. Lil disappointed in the fact there was no daily service, trash wasn’t emptied and we had to ask for towels during a 4 nights stay. But rest assured, they were beating on that door early on the day of check out!

    One of the best hotels I've ever stayed in, if not the best. Very nice, clean and safe. Excellent staff. Very very cool character (motorcycle, art and rustic themed). 3 bars (2 inside and one outside). Amazing back patio area that has excellent indoor/outdoor space (covered so even if it's raining it's perfect for outside). Hotel rooms and bathrooms are huge and very nice. Location is perfect (walking distance to the Harley Museum and about a 5 minute uber ride to the center city areas). Free covered-parking right out front for motorcycles and paid parking next to the hotel for cars. All in all this is an amazing hotel and I would stay here again and recommend it to anyone.

    Great hotel, comfortable beds, staff was helpful and kind. The breakfast was delicious, a bit over priced, the bar was fun either way lots of games, great beers too. Perfectly located near a river walk and a brewery and Irish pub!

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Services and staff are lacking as compared to just 2 years ago. Great restaurant and bar staff. A cool building and location, but sadly, not worth the money anymore.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Check-in was easy and the staff is very friendly. Lovely old building that has been nicely renovated. Would definitely stay there again.

    Stay was wonderful! Would recommend 100%

    Hotel was nice. Parking was a mess. There is a structure next door you can park in if you don’t want to do the valet. But when we tried to park there, they only have an option to pay on the phone and you had to “confirm your cell number” with a texted code that is provided. But it took over an hour to get the code. Hotel staff was not able to give any insight. Very frustrating when we arrived.
