Valet at the hotel parks cars in an unsupervised empty lot with no security and 7 cars were broken into the night we stayed at this property. This sounded to be a known issue yet valet continues to park cars there instead of in a supervised parking garage.

Staff is amazing from receptionist (can’t remember her name but she was a beautiful woman who was expecting ) to valet Corn and to the bar tender (can’t remember his name but he has dreads). The ambience was incredible. Will definitely stay here again. Made my travel from California extremely memorable. The building is beautiful!

Do not use the hotel’s valet parking. They park your car in an outdoor lot with no camera surveillance and our car along with 6 other cars were broken into. Windows smashed and luggage stolen. Apparently, this is common for this hotel and they still park cars in this outdoor lot.

Lovely hotel with nice atmosphere. Staff was always friendly and helpful. Walkable to several museums and restaurants. Nice restaurant in the hotel also. Room was small as expected from an old building, but everything has been updated and clean.

I really enjoyed the Grady hotel. The staff was super friendly. I loved the decor. It was also within walking distance of many bars and museums, which was super convenient. Make sure you check out The Wild Swan: the hotel’s bar/restaurant which is located in the basement

1 night. 2 visitors. Valet was at lunch. Front desk could not reach them. Was told “idk just give me your keys and leave it at the curb”. Charged $40 for valet. In Louisville. Terrible Asked to check in early was told “sure, for fee of $50” Front desk staff were rude, paid no attention, were in their phones, and chewing while interacting. Downstairs hyped “Swan” bar/restaurant had no life and opened late. Cocktails were good. Limited amenities. Small rooms. Small shower. Towels were rough and scratchy. Bathroom was large. Bed was comfortable. Will never stay again and will advise all friends/family to avoid.
