Loved the art concept. Wish had this hotel in hometown. Way to support local artists and international arts. All staff very nice and helpful. would like to have check in 3pm instead of 4pm. Also, the price of drinks in bar was too high. A glass of wine $15 and beer $10

A Class Act in a Classy City

Pros: Where else can you see paintings by Kehinde Wiley (who painted the official portrait of Obama for the National Gallery) up close and personal?
Cons: I like what they are doing, but how about making the checkout time for noon rather than for eleven AM?
Location: My sons enjoyed visiting Louisville Stoneware, walking the town, seeing the Brown and Seelbach, Frazier History Museum and night time at 4th St. Live.
From the moment you walk into the 21C, it's a delight to the senses. Friendly staff, amazing thought-provoking art surrounds you on all four levels of the hotel. We wanted to bring my "often hard to impress" millennial sons to Louisville and a stay at the 21C. My family loved it. The room was ultra clean, spacious and interesting. Their atmospheric and fun restaurant and bar, Proof has wonderful food and attentive servers. We enjoyed flights of Bourbon at the start of our evening. We made reservations for brunch for the 4 of us at Proof for the following day which was a wonderful repast of delicious bison burger, scrumptious country ham benedicts and delightful shrimp and grits with Bellinis. Great food! Surrounding downtown Louisville has a great vibe for walking and viewing the sights. We would definitely pick 21C again for our base to enjoy the town.
