This is our Budget pick in Louisville, and it is the cheapest by a wide margin. It suits drivers, people on a tight budget and travellers who mainly need a clean bed and a friendly front desk.
With 678 reviews, it has far more feedback than our other two Louisville picks, so the score is a reliable signal of what to expect.
Skip it if you plan to explore downtown on foot. Our other two picks are listed in Downtown Louisville. This one is in Louisville East, and the distance to the centre has not been verified in our data.
Location and getting around
The address is 1301 Kentucky Mills Dr, in the Louisville East area. Guests rate the location 8.8 out of 10.
The nearest named places in our data are all far on foot. St. Regis Park is about 6.6 km away, around 83 minutes walking. Seneca Gardens is about 11.9 km, around 149 minutes. Audubon Park is about 16.4 km, around 205 minutes. These are straight-line estimates. In practice you will need a car, taxi or public transport.
Free parking is listed by the property, which makes a car the easy option. Confirm it for your dates.
What guests say
The score is 8.1 out of 10 from 678 reviews. That was last of the 10 eligible hotels in our sample. The city's field was strong, so an 8.1 here still means most guests leave satisfied.
Staff are the clear strength. Guests describe a friendly, professional team and a warm welcome. Cleanliness also scores well, with rooms called tidy, spotless and well maintained.
Breakfast is the weak spot. The listed styles are continental and buffet. Guests like the hot items such as waffles and eggs, but say breads, fruit and pastries lack variety.
Price and how it compares with our other Louisville picks
Reference prices seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026 (10 to 12 Nov, 2 adults, one room) were about €72.68 per night. The sample median was €125.88, so this was about 42% lower. These are not live quotes, so check today's price for your dates.
Homewood Suites By Hilton Louisville Downtown, our Best Value pick, scored 9.0 at about €131.72 per night. 21c Museum Hotel Louisville, our Luxury pick with 5 stars and 9.0, was about €184.93.
That makes this hotel roughly €59 cheaper per night than the Best Value pick. Over two nights that is close to €120 saved, which can cover a lot of taxi fares. The trade is a lower score and a location outside downtown. You still get 4 stars, free Wi-Fi, a gym, a pool, free parking and air conditioning.
Why it made our top 3
We compared 10 eligible hotels in Louisville. This one took the Budget slot because it had the lowest eligible reference price once the upscale choice was set aside.
Strong staff and cleanliness feedback across a large number of reviews made it a safe low-cost choice.
