Redefined my Hotel expectations
I was totally blown away by the aesthetics of the hotel rooms, the vaulted ceilings, fabulous fixtures, and our shower was so big you could park a car in it!
The restaurant downstairs is top notch, and valet parking couldn't have been more friendly and convenient! So highly recommend The Grady!

The best!
This hotel was amazing. The service- check in, check out, valet, everything- was top notch. The facility is so hip and stylish, and the rooms were to die for. I got an incredible night’s sleep on the fluffiest, most luxurious bed with the softest sheets. Five stars!!

Check in/out easy and fast. Helpful and attentive receptionists. Thoughtful modern design inside a historic building.
Large room, extra high ceiling, large bathroom and huge shower. Great restaurant.
A piece of advice, Valet is 50$ a night but as we stayed for a night Saturday-Sunday, street parking after Sat. 6p.m. till Monday is free :)

Won’t stay anywhere else in Louisville!
CLEAN & COMFY! The bed is amazing & everything seems sparkling when you check in. Valet & front desk are always happy & seem to like their jobs. Eating at the Swann downstairs is a must! the coffee is rich & flavorful and all the food was over-the-top wonderful.
