Great location for the rate. We came during the weekend of the Thunder airshow and the fireworks could be seen from hotel. The bartender was so hilarious and made great drinks.

Liked: Staff & service
Bartender was super friendly and helpful. Small sitting area outside was nice. No ice available on our floor.
having the restaurants on 4th street nearby was a real plus. excellent value for $ for the room. Also, a lot to see and do in Louisville. a great trip and holiday inn was terrific.
They should have room service or at least have the phone that guest can call directly to order the food from restaurant. I have to call front desk and staff is so helpful by running to the restaurant and order food for me.
Breakfast isn't included in all stays, and is not prepared quickly.
Parking is valet only, which requires a charge of $36/ day. This means you are paying for the privilege of waiting for your car as opposed to just walking to the car lot.
The rooms were nice and decently clean.
The staff were mostly friendly, but the night staff is noticeably more friendly than the day staff.

Staff was fantastic and location was perfect for downtown activities!
Stuck in snowstorm and were so happy to find this place for the night. Really nice staff and much nicer facility than we were expecting for the great price. Complimentary breakfast was delicious and filling. Beds were very comfortable.
Very clean very nice. It was probably the best HolidayInn I ever stayed in. The area outside is a little sketchy but nothing out of the norm for a downtown area. Easy walkable location with many food and shopping locations nearby
The property was easy to find, very clean and modern and close to dining and entertainment.

Not enough parking for the amount of rooms. Had to park elsewhere and walk to the hotel. At that, you have to pay for parking if you park at the hotel.
The TV only had one station, and no other streaming services (netflix, hulu, etc.)
Bed spreads had previous stains on them, they were clean but not presentable.
The beds were comfy, the AC worked, and the water got warm. That’s all the good I have to say.
Rooms were clean, easy walk to lots of restaurants and bars. There was a concert at the Yum Center the night we stayed; staff seemed unprepared for crowd at check-in. Also had to park off-site.
The “full service” restaurant was terrible! Literally the worst half of what we ordered for breakfast was not available including milk, breakfast sausage, butter, croissant, cream for coffee the rest of breakfast was cooked wrong. The yogurt smelled rotten. The side of toast for $4 was ridiculous! A stale piece of cheap bread, half toasted, no butter, honey or jam available no discounts were offered whatsoever for all the issues. The valet parking was a joke. $36/day but we had to wait forever for the attendant to show up and retrieve our keys only to have us get our own car from the lot and park it again upon return. We basically paid $36/day for a parking lot adjacent to a public lot that was $7/day. So we overpaid by a ridiculous amount for no service at all. I can only say that the room was clean and bed was comfortable. Everything else was unacceptable.
Our check in time was at 3:00, but when we arrived they told us our room was not ready. We didn’t get a room until 5:30, but to make up for it they upgraded our room which was much appreciated. Staff stated they only had 2 housekeepers which impacted their ability to prepare rooms for new guests. Did not receive housekeeping services throughout the stay, and had to fetch new towels etc for ourselves. The parking situation was messy as well. The room was nice and clean. We enjoyed the bar in the lobby. The bartender was very kind and even gave us recommendations for restaurants in the area.
Staff was friendly. We had a phenomenal breakfast on Friday morning but then breakfast was closed Saturday and they were out of almost everything on Sunday which was super disappointing.
