Which hotel?
The IBEX 2010 downtown co-headquarters hotel is the Hyatt Regency Louisville. You can’t go wrong with a Hyatt, Hilton or Marriott. Another option is The Galt House, a large local hotel that was recently renovated. The Galt House “Suite” level is an excellent choice if you are planning to have small meetings, or use your room for entertaining. The Galt House also has a spectacular gym.
The Brown is a “grand” historic Four Diamond, AAA hotel in downtown Louisville. Stunning English Renaissance architecture, and an opulent two-story lobby has a hand-painted, coffered ceiling, Bottocino marble flooring, finely carved mahogany furnishings and Palladian-style windows. If you want old world elegance, and an exceptional atmosphere when having a nightcap in the lobby bar, this is where you should stay. The rooms are lovely and available at at reasonable rate.
The airport/convention center co-headquarters hotel is the Crowne Plaza which is conveniently located across the street from the Kentucky Exposition Center. All of the hotels near the convention center are name brands, and many are recently built.

I was in Louisville on 4/24/10 to check out motels and their locations. I stayed at the Days Inn on Fern Valley Road. I did not want to believe the reviews that people had left on line but they were true. My room smelled, the shower did not drain well, the sink was worse yet and the breakfast left much to be desired. The best thing about the room was the great internet connection. I will not be staying at the Days Inn on Fern Road during the IBEX 2010.
