Top Expo Five Hotel Reviews

Crowne Plaza Louisville Airport Expo Ctr by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Property was great"

The Brown Hotel

8/10 Good

"Absolutely gorgeous place to stay within walking distance to anything and everything you would want to do. Fantastic food at the cafe. We will absolutley want to stay again! I really enjoyed the stay, but communication about charges to the room were non-existent. They do put an extra charge for the room for incidentals, which isn't much - but if you aren't expecting it then it can be surprising. Somehow they managed to be without keys, so when we were checking in so was everyone else in the hotel. There was a wedding this weekend too so we didnt get to spend much time using the amenities. The sign on the desk said the kitchen is open with a limited menu until midnight however when we asked if we could order they said they were closed for the night at 11, which is understandable - but a little confusing as well. Nothing detrimental at all - just minor miscommunications."

Cottonwood Airport & Expo Hotel Louisville

10/10 Excellent

"We had a very good experience the staff was really nice and went over and beyond to help and took the time to talk to you not just check you it they really made you feel welcomed . The room was clean and fresh smelling and comfortable the breakfast was good wasn’t a fan of the eggs but everything else was very nice. We will be coming back in the future. Thank you for everything"

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

Deep Sea Diver | Hot Tub | Near Churchill Downs 3 Bedroom

10/10 Excellent

"We had moved from Alabama and it was after 3 am when we arrived. Shoshana and Robert were so understanding. They allowed us a late check out and it ended up we needed another night. Also, we had 3 dogs with us. They were both wonderful host, the place was clean, the area was quiet. I liked the fact that we had a locked gate with parking. The hot tub was amazing. Everything you needed to cook was provided; pots and pans in good shape, a beautiful table to sit with friends and family and enjoy your meal. I just want to say thank you to our host, and if I have family in town to visit I will book there again."

"Property manager was easy to work with. 2 nice tavern/ grills in walking distance. Peaceful neighborhood. Felt safe. The message chair was nice after long day standing at trade fair. Very clean and modernized house"

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."
