Anniversary Trip
Bed was very comfortable, A/C worked great, and sheets and towels were very nice. Our room was in the basement, so we could hear quite a bit of noise in the mornings, and we basically had to have the blinds closed whenever we were in the room, because our window was exactly at sidewalk level. Room needed a few little things fixed, bathroom door, didn’t close and shower leaked a lot of water. Very cute bakery next-door with great cinnamon buns. Honestly, the coffee that was free in the hotel each morning was the best coffee I had in Kentucky.

The hotel is beautiful, but the street noise in our city view room made it almost impossible to get to sleep at night. They also need to put coffee makers in the rooms.

Fabulous boutique hotel with amazing quirky decor and colours. Little atmosphere in the hotel with the reception staff slouched over a stool staring into their phones and not even looking up to greet as you walked by. Mark the waiter downstairs in the restaurant made our stay very welcome. Overall the quiet atmosphere was a disappointment but loved the actual hotel (and Mark)

I had a nice stay here. The hotel is very pretty, bed was comfortable, and the location was good. Biggest drawback was the noise from other rooms - you can hear water moving through the pipes, people walking, etc. If you aren’t a light sleeper, you might not notice!

Place has a bit of funk: front desk staff is typically sitting in one of the lobby chairs when you arrive; no coffee maker in the room - but fresh coffee and real cream/half and half available in lobby by 6am. Restaurant was excellent as is the decadent Wiltshire Pantry right next door. If you have the ParkMobile app, street parking right out front is easy, just make sure you feed the meter before 7am. Main Street in Louisville is a really neat place, this is my third time through in the past year.

Liked the location and the facilities. Didn’t care for the parking. Valet $40 per night plus tip every time I needed the vehicle, will not stay here again for that reason. The restaurant on property ‘Wild Swan” is severely overpriced and not very good food.

The Grady is a unique historical building that has been beautifully designed and decorated. Our stay was comfortable and relaxing. All staff we encountered were helpful and kind. We will for sure be staying here on our future trips to Louisville.

I wasn’t aware that the valet was not part of the hotel. When I checked out I still had to check out with the valet. The kitchen was good but seemed to close earlier than what was posted.

Everything was great! The only thing was when we asked for more towels guest services said we had to come down and get them because they didn't have any workers.
