Aleksander House is a place where travelers come to relax, unwind, and enjoy good southern hospitality. Our Inn has fourteen-foot ceilings, original hardwood floors, light fixtures, stained glass and fireplaces. The dining room walls are lined with French Toile coverings and prints of 18th century French Impressionists. Two sweeping staircases lead to the second and third floor guestrooms, each uniquely decorated in eclectic or period furnishings with fine linens and down comforters. Louisville is the home of the Kentucky Derby, which is run at Churchill Downs Race Track each year on the first Saturday in May.
