Top Speed Art Museum Hotel Reviews

Galt House Hotel Trademark Collection by Wyndham

10/10 Excellent

"Na"

Super 8 by Wyndham Louisville/Expo Center

8/10 Good

"Great location off the interstate and the airport right near the convention and Expo area easy parking on site"

The Trifecta in Old Louisville

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and very clean."

Central Park Bed & Breakfast

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful 1880’s mansion converted to bed & breakfast. Gorgeous stained glass windows, fireplaces. Innkeeper was super friendly and accommodating/ lives onsite which is very convenient. Hearty and flavorful breakfast. Amazing neighborhood full of beautiful late 1800’s homes. Wish we had more time to explore Olde 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!"

Baby Blue | Gorgeous Upscale Retreat | Ideal Area

10/10 Excellent

"Clean throughout. Everything worked well for us. Just to note that the stairs to the 2nd floor are very steep so something to be careful of with young kids. Beds were comfortable. Location was convenient to get just about anywhere in Louisville. Would recommend and stay again if we are in the area."

Louisville Group Home | Glow Putt Putt & Karaoke | Mins to Downtown | Sleeps 13

8/10 Good

"Great location for Bourbon & Beyond. Can walk to Expo Center or about a 7 min drive. There is a bakery and fun bar a block away, and Main St/Whiskey Row is a short drive. Host was very communicative. We appreciated being able to check in early. House was cute and comfortable. Dedicated parking for 3 cars. Quiet neighborhood. House is well maintained over all. It does show some signs of wear but nothing that adversely affected our stay. Fun spot to call home for a weekend."

6Bed 5Bath Prime Retreat Mins 2 UL/Downtown Firepit Speakeasy Luxe Amenities

10/10 Excellent

"This is a great home for a large group! 6 bedrooms with excellent beds. 5 fully updated bathrooms. Lots of gathering space. Nicely decorated with both modern and classic touches. Property owners/managers were great to work with and proactively encouraged us to report any problems of which we noted a few minor things not needing immediate attention. This is a classic home in a quintessential Louisville neighborhood yet walking distance to Univ. of Louisville campus and super convenient to Churchill Downs and the Kentucky Expo Center. Our group of 11 would definitely stay again!"

Inn at St James Court

10/10 Excellent

"Convenient location with a great host"
