Radisson Hotel Louisville North
Hotel was very Nice. It has a Restaurant, Music and Lounge area by the Pool area and also next to the Restaurant area to be able to just relax. It was our first time visiting this property and would return. The cost was very reasonable as well.

The Brown Hotel
We loved our stay at The Brown Hotel! Charming older hotel. Restaurant/bars were wonderful, staff was very friendly and helpful, room was clean and comfortable. Location was a little away from 4th St and Whiskey Row, but easy 1 mile walk to attractions. Highly recommend The Brown Hotel!
