MARK O

Adequate for an Affordable StayRooms were clean and well equipped with dated furniture that was functional There was ample storage and room to be comfortable Common areas needed attention especially the buildings grounds, weeds everywhere with a dead tree right outside the front entrance (first impression)

Overall if you’re looking for a quiet, average place to stay at a good price point with no frills this will work for you If traveling through I’d stay again but would not use this hotel for a long-term stay

Brandi Scott

Located off Fern valley road quiet hotel away from the interstate Rooms are very clean that front desk was very helpful during my entire stay Breakfast is Continental and good assortment of items They also have meeting rooms and swimming pool

I would suggest this hotel to anyone looking to stay somewhere economical as well as comfortable

Susan Lanham

I stayed on the 13th its now the 23rd and I’m still waiting on my deposit Uuuggghhh My husband and I travel often and I have never experienced anything like this They say 100% should be returned and they returned half and no one knows why

They tell me they are still working on it and tell me to have a nice day How, when there has been no kind of compensation for their mistake It was a nice place but unless something changes we will go elsewhere next time

My Family and I enjoyed our weekend here it was bittersweet seeing my nephew off to college but the pint houses were like home away from home where you can spend time cook chat and even the boys enjoyed basketball and the younger one the pool 😀I recommend this for family retreat to Bond,relax and enjoy each other❤️ thank you Sunng and staff staff

Mike Caravetta

After checking in, and stores immediately since we were about 100 feet away from the interstate The stove top did not work either Moved to the second room, again the stove top didn’t work

The dishwasher was taken apart, there have obviously been a leak with water squishing from the floor The front desk was not aware of the appliance problems in either of the rooms! Leads you to ask, what does maintenance do here? Our multiple calls to the front desk were greeted with annoyed politeness, and an obvious hurry to get off the phone Not coming here again, and have already called Marriott corporate

From the easy and quick check in, to their standard 12pm check out time, Moxy was amazing! The first floor has everything you’d need, games, a fireplace, a gorgeous bar with fantastic drinks, and cute little taco place attached!! There’s also a clean fitness area, and a little snack/drink shop The entire hotel was clean, and felt fresh! The room was cozy, it had a great view, and walk in shower The staff were all friendly as well! 10/10 would stay here next time I’m in town!

Taylor Wisler

For me the place is 5 stars, but it comes with a couple asterisks Do you like the idea of having the check in desk being at the middle of a bar? Do you like the idea of bare concrete ceilings and funky decor (think a picture of two guys in horse masks playing ukuleles)? Do you like the restaurant option being a place called “Zombie Taco?” Do you like the idea of the elevators having walls that are chalkboards to draw on? If so, you’re going to love this place If you want a more “traditional” hotel experience this place will feel too wild for you

All that being said, it’s not like this place is odd enough to be uncomfortable, it’s just that they’re trying to be creative and unique The location is good, the rooms were comfortable and quiet (concrete floors and ceilings are not the best aesthetically in my opinion, but they do provide good sound insulation) and the service was friendly Honestly a great place, assuming you’re ok with the funky kind of atmosphere they’re going for

Brandt Callahan

The Moxy will be our Go-to whenever we stay in Louisville The staff is incredible and so kind Justin, the bartender, is cool

The vibe here is simply awesome Had we not just had dinner, we would have eaten at the zombie taco kitchen they have Heard their food is really good We will give that a try on our next visit And another plus is that it is walking distance to all things downtown

Marilyn Wolford

The desk staff was super friendly and attentive to detailed requests The room was clean The bed was comfortable

I thought the lighting in the room was a bit dark, but that’s ok The little bit of computer work that I needed to do was by the desk light that was adjustable The continental breakfast was “eh” One morning the biscuits and sausages were obviously leftover and re-warmed from the previous day But when I came back about an hour later, the food was fresh One day they had this Frankenstein “bacon” Maybe it was turkey bacon or plant-based Regardless, I think they should have labeled it But that was a small matter I thought the price was a bit inflated, however, we were there during Easter weekend and the week before Derby festivities That may have accounted for the inflated price Overall, my hubby and I were pleased with the stay and intend to return this summer

Phyllis POLLNITZ

I give this hotel a poor rating this time, not because of it’s clean room, it’s friendly staff, nor it’s convenient location But it was because of an annoying flashing light in the middle of our room that Resembled a police officer’s car! When I called to complain about 3 AM the first night, he said maintenance will take care of it later that morning Well that didn’t happen and neither of us got good sleep, and both of us were very tired and irritable the whole 6 Hour Drive home! While we love the location, we may have to change hotels on next visit

It would’ve been so nice to get a call or reimbursement of some type, but it never came

swordoflorn

I’ve been staying at hotels across Kentucky, Ohio and Indiana for over a year, and I have to say, this one has the absolute worst customer service The lady on the phone was rude and hung on on me before we were done with the reservation Aside from a clean room, this is the most important aspect of a hotel

Hire better customer service

Brittany Holleman

Staff was incredibly rude Was charged for items and services I did not receive Parking was a disaster

air conditioning did not work for 2 days and was told that those nights would be “comped” I was actually charged the full date for those night Not even a discount Do not stay here unless it’s your last resortHowever There are few hotels in Louisville that accept pets and they do

Dylan Upchurch

the room itself was comfortable and clean and the guy at the desk when we checked out was super friendly (even though nobody else really was)

it took what felt like forever to even get in our room we didn’t get the room we paid for, and the keycards wouldn’t work we paid for a disability shower and were told it was “unavailable” and just got placed a different room with no compensation the staff in the beginning were decently rude and the entire building didn’t really look like the pictures at all we were also told our room would overlook the Kentucky kingdom park and it did not it overlooked an empty parking lot Overall it was alright, better than motel 6, but not worth the price

Swapnil Suraj

My experience was awful My bathroom door malfunctioned and locked The staff did not even bother to call maintenance to get it fixed

They offered another room but I had no way to check about the stuff locked in the bathroom I had to leave it behind due to having a flight to catch The pots and pans were in the dishwasher and not stacked They were also incredibly dirty The manager was incredibly rude to other customers I would suggest to avoid this place and report to the IHG group

Amanda Guzik

Service has been better this stay! Our room has been cleaned and tidied up too Rooms are recently renovated with more modern decor Food options are limited and the walkway snack shop closes way too early which forces everyone to use the bar which isn’t feasible for everyone especially teens

Meeting spaces were well kept and easy to use for the most part but the rooms were either ice cold or hot Which it was summer but… over much more pleased this time around Glad they fixed issues of last year

Amy Davis

Very friendly staff, easy check in, rooms was clean and comfortable Access to the Yum Center was great Valet service was fast and friendly

Close to “whiskey row”Cons:In room safe on the top shelf of bedroom closet, terrible access for a short person (I’m 5’2” and had trouble)Room service is non-existent Ordering take-out from restaurant in the hotel wasn’t an option either, they wouldn’t even answer the phoneAll in all a pleasant experience We’d stay here again

Debbie Payne

The newly remodeled room was VERY nice Comfortable, spacious bathroom, but NO MICROWAVE Sitting area was very nice, large sofa, desk and work area

Needs a more easily accessible charging station for electronic devices Check-in lines were 30 people deep More stations should have been opened Lines did move fairly quickly and personal were efficient and personable Each employee I asked for help was helpful and friendlyWe ate lunch in Walkers Exchange I ordered a Caesar Salad for $9 I got a plate of chopped Romaine lettuce with a little cheese sprinkled on top Very disappointing and way overpriced The fried green tomatoes were excellent chicken and dumplings was lunch special Dumplings were pretty good, but no chicken and the “sauce/gravy/gruel” seemed to be only cream of chicken soup Really? If I’m paying chef meal prices, I expect above average dishes We did not get them

I stayed at the Louisville Kentucky Holiday Inn First time visiting Louisville I was there for a wedding

The hotel was nice and clean Comfy beds The breakfast was great Never had it like that in a Holiday Inn Great location Close to airport downtown and other places All said reason for 3 stars the staff was not very friendly They need to brush up on customer service 😒

0 Stars isn’t enoughTLDR- EXTREMELY UNPROFESSIONAL AND DISRESPECTFUL GM Robert Cecil told me he was calling the police because my wife brought our dog into the hotel

My wife and I had been traveling across the country with our dog and chose this hotel because they advertise on Priceline as being “Pet Friendly” Our day was planned around stopping at this hotel and we arrived at approximately 7:20 pm While my wife checked in she told the front desk assistant that our dog was with us expecting a pet fee and was not informed that pets were not allowed After checking in I took the bags up to our room while she went to park with my phone still in the car (this becomes pertinent later) Once she entered the lobby with our dog and reached the elevator the same woman who assisted her at check in told her that dogs aren’t allowed and demanded her room number With me up in the room and no phone my wife said she needed to come get me so we could leaveWhen she got to the room and informed me of what happened we were both obviously upset that we would not be able to stay She immediately began making phone calls to find a hotel that would accommodate us and our furry friend while I began to repack our suitcases Within a minute our room phone range and the woman at the desk began asking if I had a dog and telling me that we had to leave I informed her that we did, my wife told me what happened in the lobby, and that we were leaving momentarily A few minutes later the phone rang again and it was the GM Robert Cecil On the call he told me that I had to get out or he would be calling the police When I tried to explain that I had just spoken to someone at the front desk and we are about to leave he became extremely aggressive and said that if we were not out in 10 seconds that he was calling the police and quickly escalated that to telling another employee to call the policeIf this is the way the employees here treat people over a misunderstanding between the hotel policy and what they advertise on 3rd party sites after we made it clear at check in that our dog was with us I cannot warn you against staying here strongly enough Robert Cecil has ABSOLUTELY NO BUSINESS being a manager after the way he treated me and my wifeI hope the owner of this location reads this and is able to reach out, I would love to discuss further with you With nowhere else to go we ended up next door to the Marriot Bonvoy location where Arielle at the front desk was extremely helpful getting us a room and informed me that you own both locations

Monica Alexander

In this order, we received total hospitality: Melinda, Tiffany, Alyssa and Candice These HOSPITALITY professionals showed us that excellent care still exist! Whereas the IHG Hotel located at 830 Phillips Lane, Louisville, KY just gave us customer service, the IGH, 447 Farmington Road, in Louisville had a goal of guest satisfaction! We left and went to the IHG on Farmington Road Upon checking in, Melinda assured us up front, “If there is anything thing that you are dissatisfied with, call me or come back to the front desk

Let me know I will personally make it right!” She said it and meant it! Candice, another wonderful front desk professional was just as friendly, attentive, and profession Alyssa and Tiffany, the other two professionals who provided great dine-in and carry-out food services Refreshing drinks were the highlights but these four professionals and super clean room,, we give a 5-star rating!Both my husband and I are in the hospital / patient care industry We hear employee complaints constantly Throughout our entire stay, we never heard employees complaining or even discussing ‘behind the scene” problems with co-workers or management This is a rare occurrence! Staff seemed grateful to be employed and happy to be around their co-workers Another valuable company trait! Amazon is good but these four professionals, Melinda, Tiffany, Alyssa and Candice made this Holiday Inn stay Fantastic!

Tru by Hilton is by far my favorite of the “budget” hotelsThe whole building is clean and modern Lots of wonderful amenities including coffee in the lobby 24/7 and a longer-than-normal continental breakfast

The room was clean, modern, had tons of storage, plenty of towels, and we LOVED the provided toiletriesCheck in starts at 3pm and their standard check out is 12pm!I was supposed to arrive late at night, so I called ahead to get checked in before arrival We got delayed by weather and construction, and didn’t get there until 5am The front desk attendant (I did not catch his name, unfortunately) was the same person who answered my call at 10pm and checked me in He was very helpful and even offered us a late check out despite the fact that they had a large turnover that dayOverall we were thrilled by our stay at the Tru by Hilton at Louisville Airport We will be making an effort to stay at Tru in the future and at this specific location on our next trip through Kentucky!

Erik

This location is decent, but it’s not as great as other Tru locations we have stayed atThe room’s quality and quality of service wasn’t as great as others we’ve had in the chainThere were no extra pillows available when requested

The room was clean and the check in/out process was easy enoughWe’d probably try a different Hilton in the area next time

Daniel Duran

I had an incredible time here as it was only for a night while we were heading down on our road trip with my girlfriend! We really enjoyed our room as it was quiet, clean and pretty stylish! The breakfast was amazing and the staff were great! I definitely enjoy any type of Hilton hotels as they normally have high quality hotels! I recommend it when staying in Louisville!

I think 5 nights was about the limit for comfort The staff was awesome The room could use improved bedding

Water was great Hot without waiting forever Cold when wanted Parking is acceptable and there is a Cracker Barrel right next door The dinner establishment is clean and friendly but as is to be expected at any hotel, very pricey I will say this though, the young lady in charge of breakfast was a bundle of joy and freshness that made the morning easier to live with

Monica George-Jones

I love that they are close to the airport and have airport shuttle They do have oversized parking if you know what you’re doing They have a restaurant and a bar that opens at 5 PM

Also have outdoor dining patios and Courtyards The rooms are spacious They do accept pets Only thing is I wish they had kitchenette Studio rooms I love the staff there Very very nice Kim great personality Miss Diane always going above and beyond for her customers

Ken Henderson

This is my go to hotel when I visit Louisville It’s close to the airport and campus so it’s a no brainer I’ve had nothing but awesome experiences here

Always clean, everyone is so nice, and you can’t beat the location if you’re in and out for business The menu in the restaurant has just enough selection to make it nice to stay in for dinner and drinks Kelsey and Jason run a great operation in the bar/restaurant Always friendly and attentive I will only stay here when I visit Louisville

Funny part is I had a reservation and I called the evening before, 02/07/22, to get an accessible room Between the male and female I spoke with I wasted 20 minutes and got nowhere Call back on the day of my check in for better info, is how the conversation ended

I was definitely not excited to go to this hotel, this coming from a diamond member of many years I called back the morning of my flight and got Megan the manager 4-5 minutes later the room was set, no issues Once I got there everyone was great and very friendly Breakfast was not bad, room was great, and coffee and tea were always refilled and hot Great stay, I was pleasantly surprised

Kynicka McNeil

I’ve come here a few times within the last few years, but this visit there was a few things that stuck out… one being the front desk receptionist Cerria, she was so amazing not only to us but to the children She was Super amazing Also James the driver was so sweet, he treated us just like family

These two are what makes the stay easy They were so genuinely nice We are so excited to have this spot to meet up with our family from out of town They have made our experience the greats! Thank you so much for being amazing to our family!

Chris B

I had high hopes since I like this chain Rooms are very large, new looking at first glance but I notice some upkeep issues already Not cleaning corners of counters, sink, Wallpaper already peeling in bathroom (likely design or application flaw

humidity from shower and basic wall paper is a bad mix)Breakfast was a series of Jimmy Dean items warmed up, scramble, sandwiches, etc Nice outdoor patios, pool, work out area Front desk team is good As others noted, I asked for a quiet room, maybe there is no such thing close to the airportFor one night it did the job

Desk staff was extremely courteousFacility location is great for the Expo Center!Limited WiFi in our third floor roomCounters clean

Floors swept Fridge clean inside Good AC Window also opened Nice TV Front desk staffed whenever we were in the lobbyDid not hear the planes at the airportSheets clean, but had multiple visible stains Accumulated dirt and grime in corners of bathroom and in cabinetry/closer Back security door isn’t consistently closed by guests despite sign requesting it be closedNot sure if I was informed in advance about 100 security deposit when I booked the room I was surprised by it at check-in, but I might have missed it in reservation detailsWill probably stay further out from the Expo Center next visit at another brand hotel because the price was high for the room quality This is a great location if you must be close and the people are great

Ebony Burks

I booked 2 rooms days for May 26-29 before my arrival I also called twice to let staff know that I would be arriving around 2am Friday morning I was driving from South Carolina

I was advised that everything will be fine upon my arrival I get to the property and was greeted unpleasant just to be told that they only had one of my rooms available We arrived around 1:40 am Friday morning so I was confused on why both of my rooms weren’t available I asked multiple times how and why did this happen I offered to go get my phone out of the car to show the front desk attendant my booking confirmation Initially I was told I don’t need to get my phone because they had no extra rooms to accommodate me and my other guest( I had a total of 3 people including myself) I asked if I could speak with a manager to sort this out I was told I could at 9am Then I was told I could go get my phone to show my confirmation But to no avail! Because the attendant calls the manger I assume and tells them I do have a confirmation for two rooms So she offers me a room for only one night After she ends the call and my mother and I are discussing amongst ourselves we will still have to figure out what we were going to do about the extra nights we needed the front desk attendant continues to yell and disrespect me and “says that’s what you get for booking online” I can’t magically make a room appear ” Not once was I rude until she decided she wanted to yell and curse at me The police were called on my mother and I all because I wanted an explanation My mother never had a conversation with the attendant yet when she called the police she stated that we both were aggressive and wanted us removed from her property We weren’t the aggressors She was And to conduct that type of behavior towards someone in your work establishment is unacceptable and very unprofessional Thank you for the example of how SureStay by Best Western in Louisville Ky treats certain customers!! I only gave 1 star because I could post without leaving a rating

Hailey

Overall great stay We stayed in the king suite and it was clean The breakfast was a good spread

The reason for a 4 star is because the sofa bed mattress had some red stains and was not nice to see so the couple ended up sleep on just the couch and the floor Close to the Kentucky Derby, like a 10 min drive and if absolutely needed an hour walk

We stayed the weekend to attend the Farm and Machinery ShowThe rooms were marked way up, which is understandable, if the rooms were clean and we could have actually slept Saturday night Walking into the room, you could see that little effort was made in cleaning the room

When I walked into the bathroom, the floor was sticky The bathtub was dirty, and there was fresh caulking on the bathtub that was still tacky feeling I laid hand towels on the sink because when I lifted the tray of coffee items up, it was wet and dirty under it as well as under the mirror The vent for the air conditioner was half off, so if someone had a small child in that room, they could very easily get hurt The beds were comfortable, but the bedding had stains on it Also, there was a queen sized fitted sheet on a king size bed and it kept coming off We dealt with it, knowing how busy the hotel was On Saturday night, we arrived back at the hotel and we had no fresh linens and could tell housekeeping had not been there We went to the front desk and asked for linens We were told that you have to request housekeeping I understand the concept, but I would suggest to let guests know this upon check in Walking back to our room, there was a group by the elevator drinking and being very loud Not long after we got back to our room there were people yelling and screaming at each other, wanting to fightThis went on for about 45 minutes At that point I was concerned for my safety and could not go to sleep After that situation was over, there were people yelling in the halls until almost 3am I am unsure of why others were not removed from the property for being drunk, and out in the halls disrupting those trying to sleep I got maybe 3 hours of sleep and we went to have breakfast, which is very good Our waitress was one of the best My husband went to check out and told the front desk of the situation and got a very insincere apology We paid over 600 for two nights there and I will not do that ever again

I don’t normally leave reviews, but my experience here was terrible We came for the Farm Machinery Show, which from what I understand is one of the largest events Louisville holds each year We were told that every year prior, the hotel offered a shuttle to the convention center

Apparently they don’t do that anymore & they were pretty rude about letting us know that upon arrival (we had to ask first) The chair in our room had holes in the fabric The room itself wasn’t the cleanest Housekeeping is apparently only available upon request now (another thing we had to find out for ourselves) When we did request more towels and coffee pods, we received 2 towels, no coffee pods When we voiced our concerns to the front desk staff about this & more, she told us our room would be half price upon checkout When we checked out about an hour later, she changed her tune and only one night was charged at half price (half price still being over $150 for the night) I understand that Covid has been hard on everyone, but we weren’t shown any hospitality here from those in the ‘hospitality’ industry Next year, we’ll choose one of the many other nearby hotels who did offer things like a shuttle The Hilton or the Hampton are just two of many other hotel shuttles we saw all weekend at the expo center If you’re booking for the NFMS & are expecting a similar stay to previous shows, I’d say book elsewhere

A great place to stay you are less than 3 minutes from the airport Really good spot a nice quick overnight to get a good night’s sleep so you don’t have to fight the traffic in the morning You’re able to leave your car at the hotel take the shuttle and then come back and pick your car up and go

Internet could be better and I will say this hotel is very active so if you want a good night’s sleep talk to the front desk to make sure you’re on the floor that is not as active as the one I was on

The last time i was there, it was still on the riverboat; so i was excited to see the new casino The casino itself is very nice, the staff very friendly and helpful I tried the new virtual blackjack and video roulette, didn’t care for them to much; i like the interaction with the dealers

There wasn’t many table games open, but i did get there at 9am so maybe that was why They have raised the table minimum from $5 to $15, which i didn’t care for I will go back once more and see if my experience is any different All in all a very nice place to go and have fun

This review is based on our stay in the hotel, the casino was fine We stayed for one night to celebrate my birthday and upon arriving in the hotel we at first didn’t notice the lack of cleanliness until we came back up from a long night of gambling Once we realized how dirty the room was I was honestly shocked

I didn’t even sleep under the covers because I felt so uncomfortable There are stains all over the borders of the bed they look like they’ve never been wiped off There was a coat of dust over all the furniture, once again not wiped off There were stains on the curtains, couch, and even the little table next to the chairs The toilet was stained as well I took pictures of everything and would post if I could simply the room didn’t look like it had been properly clean and from a 4/5 star reviewed hotel I’m beyond disappointed with the lack of cleanliness Also when checking out, they didn’t even ask how we enjoyed our stay, just rushed us away, we did mention there was dust on the furniture and all she offered was to call housekeeping and did in the middle of us talking Also spent $30 on breakfast that was cold on arrival and tasted like hospital food If you plan on staying for your birthday, I highly suggest looking elsewhere

This place is really nice and the staff is exceptional The breakfast crew not only is polite and friendly but they can cook delicious food It’s clean and comfortable

The casino is really fun and again staff is exceptional I saw jackpots hit at this casino and the poker room is great Southern hospitality Don’t bother going to Caesars Indianapolis because it’s horrible No happy winners there and poker room uses tiny printed cards on ugly beige table and dealers aren’t trained properly Different owners

Would I stay here again? Probably not The hotel was just okay The elevators had a funny smell, our room was decent but had a lot of dust

Went to take a shower and the face towels were still wetWhat really got me though was when we got there there were so many bikers there at least 50 or so more We couldn’t pull up to the front to bring our bags in because they were blocking the entrance on both sides so we had to park and bring all our stuff in We told the front desk staff and all he said was “interesting” but never said anything to them about moving because we left back out an our after that and they were still there with more bikers added to itAround 230 am they were outside playing the LOUDEST music Motorcycle radios are pretty loud and he had it probably the highest it could go It woke me up and my husband there after The music was playing for awhile before we had to go say something to them ourselves! We gave the hotel staff a chance to say something and they never did The fact that we had to go say something says they can’t handle certain thingsLooking back on other reviews apparently bikers come here all the time So be aware of that if you do choose to come here The next morning we headed out to visit family and there was trash EVERYWHERE! Liquor bottles, opened box of cereal with cereal all over the ground Cups, just trash everywhereI’ll be staying at ALOFT next time We chose this location because it’s right around the corner from family but never again

We arrived on a very busy night Around 30 bikers were checking in before us The gentleman working check in was clearly overwhelmed and had no help and they were short handed in housekeeping

Despite all of this, he remained professional, friendly, and compensated guests for their wait Our room was great It was clean, everything worked properly, and the beds were comfortable

The receptionist was excellent in making us feel welcome an accommodating They will go out of their way to help and extend our stay One encounter was 3/5/22 when I was in a rush to officiate Volleyball at the Louisville Expo center and left my winter jacket at the hotel, not realizing that I left it behind in the hotel

Great location within walking distance of so many attractions The hotel is clean and the atmosphere is quite peaceful Our room was very clean and pretty spacious

Included a king bed, couch, refrigerator, microwave, and nice size shower The bed was incredibly comfy!The breakfast needs some help There was a good variety including bread, bagels, pancakes, eggs, potatoes, and sausage The eggs were not hot, the sausage patties were not cooked done, the sausage links were overcooked and greasy Good juice variety and there were a couple different Greek yogurt flavorsI will return, yet I will probably skip the breakfast
