10/10 Excellent

"Bed was comfortable, the room was super clean, easy access to the pedestrian bridge for the baseball stadium. Only issue we had was we could hear the music from the rooftop bar. Woke me up"

Radisson Hotel Louisville North

10/10 Excellent

"No problem with parking. You pay for breakfast approx $12-15 but it was standard good to get you going in the morning. The bar is open until late when we were there for the weekend. The room was clean. Our room was far from the lobby but the lake view on the way to the room was great. 15 mins to downtown Louisville. Would stay there again for sure! "
