Galt House Hotel Trademark Collection by Wyndham

10/10 Excellent

"Easy quick check in.excellent location of room to event.ease of check in and check out."

Crowne Plaza Louisville Airport Expo Ctr by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was excellent. We enjoyed our waiter David. He was very kind and was hospitable."

Homewood Suites By Hilton Louisville Airport

8/10 Good

"The front desk staff were amazing. Hotel over all was extremely well kept and clean. The hotel room appeared to be clean upon first glance. However, the shower had not been completely scrubbed in what look like quite a while. I always bring cleaning supplies, so I cleaned where I needed. There was food crumbs underneath the dresser. The beds weren’t the worst hotel beds we’ve had, but could have been better. The pillows could be replaced as well. The room temperature was hard to keep at comfortable temp. The bathroom had exhaust fan, which was amazing! We had called to ask for washcloths on last day, never received them. I managed. We never asked for anything entire stay except that, so it was a little disappointing. The internet cut out often, but usually for not very long. Plenty of restaurants close by. My husband tried their breakfast at hotel twice, he was not impressed. The kitchen was small, bet set up well, and updated wonderfully. The entire hotel room was updated, decorated well, and the space felt comfortable. The soap provided gave me headache, not my cup of tea lol. Overall the stay was great!"

Super 8 by Wyndham Louisville/Expo Center

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was maintained and is in a great location. Will definitely stay here again if back in Louisville."

New! Walk to the Kentucky Derby, U of L Football, and Jim Patterson Stadium!

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed the stay. The home is so close and convenient to all things UofL. It was definitely a plus that sheets and towels were provided. I wish the kitchen was better equipped with cookware and other kitchen essentials (silverware, pans, pots, aluminum foil, ziplock bags, etc), because I was hoping to cook my son some home cooked meals while visiting, but the lack of cookware prevented us from doing that. Other than that, we had a lovely stay, and now that we know the kitchen situation, we’ll be better prepared next time. We’ll be back!"

Near Churchill Downs: Pet Friendly, Fenced Yard!

10/10 Excellent

"We rented this house bc it was close to KY Expo Center, where Bourbon & Beyond festival was held, and close to Churchill Downs, where my daughter, grandson, and I spent a delightful Saturday betting on ponies (the other 3 days we attended B&B). The house, though old, has a smart thermostat and state-of-the-art appliances, including a brand new refigerator/freezer with large inlaid computer touchscreen and a dual Keurig coffeemaker. The 2 bathrooms even have modern bidet seats with warming option. The bedrooms are clean, well-furnished, and comfortable. Guests with pets will appreciate the large fenced back yard. Finally, the neighborhood is quiet, the few ppl we encountered very friendly. We would definitely stay here again."
