Top Downtown Louisville Hotel Reviews

Tempo By Hilton Louisville Downtown Nulu

10/10 Excellent

"Clean hotel with nice rooms. The only downfall is paying for parking if you cannot find free parking on the street."

Embassy Suites Louisville Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"They were helpful and kind. We were a planned check in but our flight was delayed and we checked in even later and they were so kind. We had originally booked a King Suite and our daughter was going to sleep on the couch but there were 2 queen beds so it was a blessing in disguise as the couch wasn't meant for sleeping! The amenities were clean and we wished we had time to try them (pool and gym). The location was perfect for getting rides and getting dropped off. There is also a CVS attached for any last minute needs."

21c Museum Hotel Louisville

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed in a King Deluxe room and it exceeded expectations. Spacious with high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows, the room was both beautiful and comfortable. The historic building itself feels like a work of art, blending industrial character with modern design. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, showcasing true Louisville hospitality. What makes this hotel so unique is that it doubles as an art museum. Displays of contemporary art and sculptures are found throughout, and even the lobby bathroom is an experience with mirrored installations that play with perspective. The amenities are exceptional. I’ve never stayed in a hotel that offers both a sauna and a steam room—perfect after a workout or simply to relax and recharge. The on-site restaurant, Proof on Main, also deserves praise. The hotel provides drink vouchers for complimentary bourbon tastings, a thoughtful touch in bourbon country. The food was outstanding, with every meal delicious. The chicken dish especially impressed me for being moist, flavorful, and far beyond standard hotel dining. If there’s one small note, the hotel carries a distinctive scent, likely from the historic structure, though it wasn’t unpleasant. Overall, 21c Museum Hotel is a must-stay. Between the spacious rooms, inspiring art, excellent dining, relaxing amenities, and prime location near restaurants, coffee shops, shops, and the waterfront, it offers an unforgettable experience."
