Hotel Bourré Bonne Louisville, Curio Collection by Hilton, a placemaking new lifestyle hotel where history meets modern sophistication, has opened in the heart of downtown Louisville. Conveniently located near the trendy NuLu district and steps away from Whiskey Row, the Kentucky International Convention Center, and the KFC Yum Center Arena, Hotel Bourré Bonne is the premier destination for leisure and business visitors alike. Offering 168 refined accommodations, timeless design, world-class dining, and a first-of-its-kind rooftop with swimming pool, bar, and restaurant. Hotel Bourré Bonne offers an elevated and immersive experience for visitors and residents to celebrate the heart and soul of one of the most charming and historic cities in America.
Named as a playful nod to Louisville’s famed horse racing culture and the French origins of Kentucky Bourbon, Bourré Bonne – meaning “good bet” – symbolizes the winning choice guests make when stepping into a world where history meets modern sophistication.
With architecture and interiors envisioned by Zyyo’s in-house design team in partnership with Mark Zeff, the hotel’s statement-making contemporary design features a striking black exterior with arches that reference the historic cast-iron facades of Louisville’s downtown. Honoring Kentucky’s rich heritage, an oxidized horse head sculpture greets guests at the hotel’s entrance, and deconstructed bourbon barrels adorn the lobby ceiling.
Interiors feature polished and raw concrete materials, custom woodwork, and a color palette inspired by the earth tones of the Bluegrass State. Commissioned artworks throughout the hotel pay homage to the traditions, icons, and natural beauty of Kentucky through a distinctly local perspective. A large-scale sculptural installation composed entirely of locally significant texts anchors one lobby wall, while a collage of historic photographs on another evokes a strong sense of place. Murals by local artists, including Tyler Robertson and Sabra Crockett, further immerse visitors in the city’s rich art and culture. Featuring 168 thoughtfully designed guestrooms, including four suites and 16 deluxe rooms, Hotel Bourré Bonne offers spacious accommodations featuring luxurious creature comforts such as Frette’s bedding, bathrobes and slippers, bar carts stocked with hand-selected local bourbons and spirits, bespoke toiletries by Misc. Goods Co., and more. Guestroom headboards are designed with modern silhouettes and mid-century inspired simplicity, blending comfort with understated sophistication. Luxurious Kentucky-made products, from leather goods to artisanal snacks, fill the hotel boutique, allowing guests to bring a piece of Louisville’s artisan culture home with them.
For those seeking an unparalleled culinary journey, Hotel Bourré Bonne features two distinctive dining destinations conceptualized by acclaimed restaurateur Kevin Grangier, mastermind behind Louisville’s popular Le Moo and Grassa Gramma concepts. On the ground floor, Steakhouse Bourré Bonne, showcases a menu inspired by French cuisine, expertly paired with Kentucky’s finest bourbons and an exquisitely curated wine list. Glamorous interiors set the stage for a convivial, yet unforgettable experience enlivened by a sculptural open kitchen.

Cozy booths featuring artwork from Grangier’s private collection and a secluded table for private groups offer intimate dining.
