The Seelbach Hilton Louisville is considered the premiere hotel in the state of Kentucky. Built in 1905, it is a landmark to "the golden era" with its grand ambiance inspiring author F. Scott Fitzgerald to use The Seelbach as a backdrop for Tom and Daisy Buchanan's wedding in The Great Gatsby. A recent $12 million renovation has taken this grand old hotel and combined it with all of the contemporary necessities. So now you can not only experience genteel Southern hospitality in historic grandeur, but enjoy being in the heart of downtown Louisville’s business and entertainment district, adjacent to 4th Street Live! Rooms are beautifully decorated and feature “Suite Dreams Beds” a new concept in luxury bedding. The hotel has a fitness center and a full service salon and spa. There are two restaurants and a bar featuring live jazz. One of the restaruants is The Oakroom, Kentucky's first and only Five Diamond Restaurant.
