Galt House Hotel Trademark Collection by Wyndham

Baymont by Wyndham Louisville Southwest

10/10 Excellent

"Very spacious, extreamly clean and comfortable beds"

New! Walk to the Kentucky Derby, U of L Football, and Jim Patterson Stadium!

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed the stay. The home is so close and convenient to all things UofL. It was definitely a plus that sheets and towels were provided. I wish the kitchen was better equipped with cookware and other kitchen essentials (silverware, pans, pots, aluminum foil, ziplock bags, etc), because I was hoping to cook my son some home cooked meals while visiting, but the lack of cookware prevented us from doing that. Other than that, we had a lovely stay, and now that we know the kitchen situation, we’ll be better prepared next time. We’ll be back!"

Near Churchill Downs: Pet Friendly, Fenced Yard!

10/10 Excellent

"We rented this house bc it was close to KY Expo Center, where Bourbon & Beyond festival was held, and close to Churchill Downs, where my daughter, grandson, and I spent a delightful Saturday betting on ponies (the other 3 days we attended B&B). The house, though old, has a smart thermostat and state-of-the-art appliances, including a brand new refigerator/freezer with large inlaid computer touchscreen and a dual Keurig coffeemaker. The 2 bathrooms even have modern bidet seats with warming option. The bedrooms are clean, well-furnished, and comfortable. Guests with pets will appreciate the large fenced back yard. Finally, the neighborhood is quiet, the few ppl we encountered very friendly. We would definitely stay here again."
