Just in time for summer, The Galt House Hotel is pleased to debut a series of experiential packages that immerse guests in the very best of Louisville’s cultural and entertainment scenes.

With summer travel making a comeback – according to TripAdvisor, 67% of Americans plan to travel from June through August – the landmark Louisville hotel invites travelers near and far to discover (or rediscover) the vibrant energy of the city.

From Louisville Slugger and Muhammad Ali-themed packages that celebrate Louisville’s storied sports culture, to a Frazier History Museum package offering endless opportunities for learning, guests can enjoy a bevy of “Legendary Louisville” adventures to make up for lost summer vacation time – all within walking distance of The Galt House which is primely located in the heart of downtown Louisville.

The Galt House – which recently emerged from an $80 million transformative renovation – is nestled at the very center of downtown’s business and entertainment district while being steps away from the Kentucky Center for the Arts, the Muhammad Ali Center, and the Louisville Slugger Museum & Factory. With 1,310 sophisticated guest rooms and suites, 130,000 square-feet of function space, and six inventive dining concepts onsite, the legendary property provides the very best of Southern hospitality.  The hotel is also known as the gateway to the famous Urban Bourbon Trail, making it the perfect home base from which to explore Kentucky’s largest city.

Big Bat Experience Package
The Big Bat Experience Package is a home run for the whole family. The package includes two tickets to the Louisville Slugger Museum & Factory, where guests will smell the wood and see the wood chips fly as they walk through the heart of the factory where the legendary bat is created. From the iconic, 120-foot Big Bat in the front of the museum to the engaging exhibits, there is something for everyone. The package includes deluxe accommodations at The Galt House Hotel, two Louisville Slugger Museum & Factory tour tickets and a $50 gift card for use at Swizzle Dinner & Drinks, Walker’s Exchange or Jockey Silks Bourbon Bar at The Galt House Hotel.

Muhammad Ali Experience Package
The Muhammad Ali Experience Package is a knock-out for entertainment where guests of all ages can learn about the life of Louisville-born Olympic gold medalist in boxing, three-time heavyweight champion, global humanitarian, and political activist, Muhammad Ali. The exclusive tour is held at the Muhammad Ali Center, a cultural attraction and education center inspired by the hometown hero. The Ali Center features two and a half levels of award-winning exhibits, a five-screen orientation theater film, Civil Rights era media footage, videos of Ali fights, interactive boxing games, two art galleries, humanitarian-themed and Olympic exhibits, Generation Ali story booths, and more. The package includes deluxe accommodations at The Galt House Hotel, two general admission tickets to the Muhammad Ali Center and a $50 gift card for participating locations at The Galt House Hotel.

In addition to the package, guests visiting June 3-13, 2021 can enjoy the 5th annual Muhammad Ali Festival in Louisville, a celebration that marks the anniversary of Ali’s passing and celebrates his impactful legacy and love for the city. In honor of Ali Week, The Galt House will be serving Lonnie Ali’s special bread pudding recipe in Swizzle Dinner & Drinks, Walker’s Exchange, and Jockey Silks Bourbon Bar. The hotel was granted special permission to use Lonnie’s recipe as a tribute to her late husband.
