Hotel Distil, Autograph Collection

This is a really nice hotel. It is a high-end place. I would not stay here if it were not work related. The rooms are very clean. Maintained every day, which is rare today. There are plenty of plugs and USB ports throughout the room. Everything is up to date. At 7:33 PM they have a whiskey event to celebrate the repeal of prohibition in the lobby. This includes a bourbon drink for anyone who wants it. There are many bars and restaurant in the area. The riverfront is just down the hill.

When I was working in Louisville in 2019, the Hotel Distil was about to open. On Thursday, my wife and I were able to stay there for the first time. It's a luxury property on Whiskey Row. Its attention to detail and beautiful interior reminds me of the Omni Hotel, also downtown. My Bonvoy status was recognized at check-in and I received vouchers for breakfast. Unfortunately, no room upgrade. Our guest room was super comfortable, starting with the amazing bed. Loved the shower and the water pressure. Lots of neutral colors and leather accents everywhere. And I'm happy to report, no motion sensor in the room turning off the air condition when you sleep at night. I'm writing a separate review on the hotel's restaurant, Repeal, but it was amazing. I had three meals there and each only got better. As I was enjoying dinner, I was near the main entrance and watched guests arriving and departing. There was a cool vibe and energy in that space. It almost reminded me of being in Las Vegas. Obviously tourists love Louisville and its bourbon scene, and they also love staying at the Hotel Distil.

Great location. Great service. Now I know what's up with nightly toast at 7:33 PM: The spot in which Repeal sits is where the family was operating when prohibition took everything away. Today, the restaurant honors the end of prohibition with its guests at 7:33 p.m. each night. "In military time, (that's) 1933 -- the year that prohibition (ended)," Saylor explained.The place feels brand new and everything about it worked well. Quiet rooms, good food at Repeal, easy check in, and online check out process that actually worked. The location is great too. Overall, a great option for staying in the downtown Louisville area.

My wife and I recently stayed at this hotel during our visit to Louisville. The location on Whiskey Row in downtown Louisville was perfect, with easy access to many attractions. The staff was excellent, and check-in and check-out were seamless. We enjoyed dining at Repeal, the restaurant next door, which was a great convenience. My only regret is missing the nightly toast to the repeal of Prohibition--something I'll make sure to catch next time. Overall, a fantastic stay, and I'd definitely return!

Really enjoyed my stay at Hotel Disil. It's perfectly situated in downtown Louisville and right on the cities main Bourbon Street. The hotel bar is right when you walk in the door and always crowded which gives the hotel a really cool social aspect. I loved the ode to prohibition ending at 7:33 PM every night. What a cool way to bring the hotel guest together, and very on brand with this being in the heart of bourbon country. The rooms were very comfortable although the sink was in an odd spot in the bedroom. if I could design this hotel room, I would put the sink area in the bathroom, so if you're staying with another person, you can get ready in a separate area I also had to call down for a mini refrigerator because they are not included in the rooms. I really enjoyed the Nespresso coffee machine in the room and loved the gym area where there is a peloton! We definitely stay at this hotel again when coming to Louisville

This hotel is located, right in the heart of Whiskey Rd and has a great bar in the hotel; or others that are great running the area. Hotel had an upscale contemporary feel. The overall service was excellent across the board. Had breakfast there one morning. All was done very well there. We'd stay here again all day long. We've had other friends stay at this place; they love it too!

Excellent stay in downtown Louisville. Clean, modern, and convenient. There's a lively restaurant off the lobby and a nightly toast is made to the end of prohibition at precisely 7:33.

Great hotel with welcoming staff! Rooms are very nice and are not too small. The toilet, shower and sink are all separate which is perfect when two people are getting ready. There are a few dining and beverage options within the hotel which is a convenient option to have. The bar at Repeal is very lively and great for a drink. The food did look amazing but we didn't have a chance to try it. Cleaning staff was great as well and before you check in you can indicate if you want daily turndown service or not. Decor is cool and so is the daily repeal toast at 7:33pm. The location is perfect for visitors. We walked to everything we did except for Churchill Downs. Overall I'd highly recommend Hotel Distil!

The first Autograph of our week long adventure and can honestly say one of the best!!!!! $40 valet parking is worth it! The room was super clean, with all the proper bedding, AC worked immaculately, and the service from the employees EXTREMELY PROFESSIONAL!We were greeted with a small bottle of wine, as they found out we had special means of traveling purposes:-) The location was also perfect! Check out Trolls Under the Bridge, along with grabbing a drink at the hotel bar- was so pleasant. Overall: This Autograph by Marriott puts the standards and expectations high, and did not disappoint! We cannot wait to return again!!

We loved our stay here at Hotel Distil while visiting Louisville.We were here to do the Bourbon Trail for my husband's birthday and this hotel helped set the mood for the whole trip.Their decor has a more masculine tone using more dark browns and black as their color scheme. Absolutely loved the lighting choices used throughout the area. The staff here were friendly and helpful. We needed a crib for our toddler and they delivered this to our room as soon as it became available.Our room was very clean and nice. I really liked that you could seperate the bathroom area from the bedroom with a barn door. They had huge windows in the room to get lots of natural light if you want.One thing that I will note about our room is that it did not have a refigerator or a microwave. So think twice before deciding to bring any leftover back. This is probably to keep the rooms smelling nice. The whole hotel smelled amazing, like a sweet whiskey smell. The amenities are nice here too. Definitely a decent gym for a hotel! The repeal restaurant that is a part of the hotel is very nice as well. They are open for breakfast and open late if you want to stop in to get a drink. We ate dinner here too. It was awesome! I will spare the details for my review on Repeal. Tip: For parking there is a glass parking garage adjacent to the hotel this is where you can park. It is either $20 a day for regular parking or $40 for valet. You are able to leave as much as you like during the day and do not have to pay again for that day. Overall, we would definitely stay here again. The location is awesome, and it is just an enjoyable experience staying here!
