Housed in one of downtown Louisville's flagship historic buildings, this spacious 3BR loft on Whiskey Row puts groups of 8 to 12 right at the center of the city's bourbon culture. Perfectly located on West Main Street, it's built for bourbon trips, group getaways, and walkable downtown stays, with a huge layout, industrial character shaped by well-preserved exposed brick walls and ceiling joists, and a spot on the National Historic Registry for its Italian Renaissance Revival architecture, complete with a limestone façade and Corinthian columns. The building traces back to the original Galt House, which once hosted guests like Charles Dickens and Civil War generals, before burning down in 1865 and being rebuilt in 1877 as headquarters for the L&N Railroad, one of the era's most successful regional railways.

Stretch out in the huge living space, furnished with two couches, two velvet bucket chairs, and a 60-inch Smart TV, or gather the group for ping pong or foosball before a night out. The two queen bedrooms feature memory foam mattresses, drawers, white noise machines, and their own TVs, while the third bedroom offers a full-over-full bunk bed with drawers and a white noise machine of its own; all bathrooms are accessed through the hallway. Set right in the pulse of Whiskey Row, this loft is made for guests who want to be in the middle of the action, with lively days and even livelier nights amid the city's top bourbon spots and busy streets.

For loading/unloading luggage or other items, you can park your car in front of the entrance or in the nearby loading zone with flashers on. Please don't block the garage entrances!

There is paid street parking on 1st St, but the easiest option for longer periods is the Yum!

Unfortunately, there isn't any free parking nearby, except at the street meters overnight and on Sundays.
