Pros

“The Brown Hotel impresses with its deep Louisville roots, dating back to 1923 and a spot on the Urban Bourbon Trail. Its environmental commitment further distinguishes this historic property, while the famous Hot Brown dish is reason enough to visit. In my opinion, the hotel balances old-world opulence with modern luxury, though some rooms could use a refresh.”
