Really cool historic hotel! I stay in hotels around 80-90 days out of my year. Where staying at a hotel might be a treat for some I consider it a great burden. Every once in a while I do find a gem like this one. The Brown is a Deco-era hotel that's woven into the fabric of downtown Louisville's history. It is also a perfect example of the elegance that hides itself in Southern states like Kentucky and the Carolinas. If you do like Bourbons they've got a good knowledge and selection of the local spirit (try the Henry McKenna 10 year, but don't expect to like anything you try after... fair warning). If you're in the mood for some good food do not, I repeat, do not miss the Bourbon Burger. The shrimp and grits were also good if you're in the mood but the burger was surprising. I will most certainly sample some of the other items from the menu next time I'm in town. Some rooms are nicer than others. The one I had this time was on the Club (or Concierge?) Level and had two large windows in the bathroom with louvered blinds. I've never seen that before. Very period. Anywho, neat hotel if you like the vintage thing. Enjoy!
