Hotel was clean and consistent with Holiday Inn Express standards, but the area outside the hotel felt very unsafe. We were greeted by a man firing up his crack pipe outside the front door.

Long weekend in Louisville, KY.

I had an excellent two-night stay at the Holiday Inn Express & Suites Louisville Downtown. The location is perfect—walking distance to many attractions, restaurants, and the waterfront. The room was clean, comfortable, and quiet, with everything I needed for a relaxing stay. Breakfast was fresh and well stocked, and the staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay here again when visiting Louisville.

Although the hotel was lovely and breakfast was delicious, I was let down by the subpar customer service. After a long drive on 8/13/25 , I arrived at 9:30pm with my family and confirmed my reservation, but the front desk agents in duty , refused to let me use the lobby restroom until I finished checking in, citing corporate policy.

I had just wiped out on my motorcycle. Had road rash all over and was wondering if they sold bandages. The front desk guy ran out with a box and asked what I needed. What an awesome guy. Thank you!
