The Brown Hotel
Kentucky
The Brown Hotel anchors the corner of Fourth and Broadway in downtown Louisville, preserving the architectural character of one of the city's longstanding hotels. Its 294 rooms and suites combine traditional furnishings with contemporary comforts, including the hotel's signature woven blankets. Food is closely tied to its history. The Hot Brown, created here in 1926, layers turkey on toast with Mornay sauce, tomatoes and bacon, and remains available in the restaurants, bar and through room service. The Lobby Bar and Grill also offers bourbon flights, connecting a stay with another Kentucky tradition. The hotel's dining venues make its culinary history accessible to visitors as well as overnight guests.
