Ideal place for downtown. The place has a light mildew smell. Very spacious. Three different codes before youre in the loft. I would stay there again since the price was competitive.

Louisville Weekend
The property was everything and then some that was advertised. Parking at the Yum center was easy. And the loft was right there on Whisky Row. Couldn't have ask for a better location. Wouldn't hesitate to stay there on our next trip.

This place was right across from the kfc yum center where we attended a concert monday night. The location couldnt have been more perfect! There were lots of places walking distance to go eat/drink in the area. We really enjoyed our stay!

The best!
The Loft was amazing! The check in process was simple and the property manager was quick to answer a few questions we had during our stay. This loft is perfectly located to the alley and frontside of whiskey row, filled with unlimited amounts of bourbon and amazing food! We walked everywhere and we plan on staying at this exact property when visiting Louisville in the future! I couldn’t recommend Whiskey Row Lofts any more!

Great space and amazing location
This place was fantastic! Highly recommend this for your stay in Louisville. We were literally steps away from great restaurants, music, comedy club, nightlife, and distilleries.
Matt kept in communication daily to ensure any needs were met and that we had an incredible stay. We will definitely be back!
