“The MICHELIN Guide revealed the latest additions to its list of One, Two, and Three Key hotels throughout the United States. These are places that significantly add to your experience as a traveler, each vetted and judged excellent in five categories: architecture and interior design, quality and consistency of service, overall personality and character, value for the price, and a significant contribution to the guest experience in a particular setting.”

“Nestled in the heart of buzzy NuLu, this new build, opened in May 2023, is the first Kentucky property by Austin-based hospitality group Bunkhouse. The hotel’s name, taken from the patron saint of Paris, celebrates Louisville’s French origins. “

“The Hotel Genevieve sits outside downtown Louisville and is an ideal home base from which to explore the neighborhood’s bars and distilleries.”

“Everything at the hotel—the rooftop bar, the art-filled lobby, the banana-yellow mini-mart, the hidden speakeasy (it’s behind the mini-mart, silly!)—is lush and a little louche and sexy as hell. As sexy, that is, as a barely closed bathrobe.”

“The bar front at Lucky Penny, Hotel Genevieve’s speakeasy, sparkles with mirror glass tiles, and if you look closely at the hunting scene behind the registration desk, you’ll see it’s been jazzed up with a tiny disco ball.”

“Hotel Genevieve features Parisian-inspired decor, 122 guest rooms, and three restaurants and bars. Plus, it’s located in the trendy NuLu district near boutiques, distilleries such as Rabbit Hole and Angel’s Envy, and locally owned coffee shops.”

“Hospitality Design presents the jury-selected finalists of its 2024 project awards program.”

“Hotel Genevieve brings high style from Austin’s hip Bunkhouse Group.”

“Looking ahead, we’re going to continue to make a great bourbon at Rabbit Hole, and with Hotel Genevieve show the rest of the country and the world not only Louisville’s past, but also the future of our beautiful city.”
