We really enjoyed our stay at Derby City Gaming & Hotel - A Churchill Downs Property. The hotel was very clean and even with the casino attached it was still very quiet!We especially appreciated the shuttle to and from the music festival.

Location location.
I got the room for the music festival because of location and it was perfect. The easy access to and from the room to the festival grounds was very nice. The location of the room to other things to do in the city was nice as well.

Rooms are spacious, clean, and modern. Having two restaurants onsite is very convenient. There is not much around the area outside of those two restaurants, but that is somewhat nice as it makes the area a bit quieter. I would stay here again and would recommend it to anyone.

We were welcomed by a friendly staff. The room itself was HUGE. Everything was neat and clean. We had a 2nd floor room with a view of air conditioning units on a rooftop, but I presume that was because we booked through Expedia. The access to gaming was easy, and my wife enjoyed the slots while I watched the Giants game in the Sportsbook. The food options were limited but ok.

room is not worth $400 a night
The room we stayed in, had a very distinct musty smell. We did ask the front desk to take care of it, and it was not ever taken care of. Also, the pillows on the beds are awful. Small little bitty pillows is not the way to go for a hotel.
