The room was fine, but small. The restaurant wasn’t great. The people were nice and helpful.
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.
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.

Bartender was super friendly and helpful. Small sitting area outside was nice. No ice available on our floor.
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.

We liked the clean room.
We didn't like the lack of parking.
The restaurant was a big disappointment. There were signs up saying they has a full service restaurant. But when we went in the first thing we were told was there were no buns for hamburgers.There wasn't a big selection anyway. So we ordered chicken wings and salad. But no salad . But The restaurant was set up very nicely.
When we went down for coffee the next morning....no creamer.
The staff was friendly but not overly concerned about the shortages except for the waitress. She was very embarrassed to have to say no to our requests.
We always stay with Holiday Inn when traveling and have always been pleased until this time.
Can’t remember the bartender’s name, but he was awesome!!! great customer service. He helped us find a good place to have a nice dinner and was very accommodating.
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 wonderful! Room was nice and very clean! Will stay again!
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
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.
We were for a quick stay. Enjoyed walking to the shops, restaurants and bars. Nice, convenient place to stay. Thank you!

The restaurant in the basement was a nice option, like that they have laundry facilities but no way to get change (they are cashless), beds are nice, overall it’s fine for a quick trip in and out. Within walking distance to the emergency, rehab and heart hospitals.

Disliked: Amenities
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.
